EditTips

  • Have good lighting.
  • Find out how many controllers that can play at the same time. Try not to go too over that limit.
  • Always compliment your guests.
  • Try to avoid too competitive games like Modern Warfare. Try playing Left 4 dead 2 instead.
  • Be happy and nice, nobody wants to be at a party where someone is acting angry. It just ruins the party.
  • If your friend brings a younger sibling. Compliment them the most, and let them beat you. It's a happy moment to see a little kid say "Yay!" or something after winning at a game.
  • Play a wide range of games. Nobody wants to play Guitar Hero all night.
  • Make sure everyone has a spot on the furniture, a snack and soda. Tell them they're free to have as many as they like.
