[QUOTE="Grayda, post: 147703, member: 24747"] I've had my HTPC for about 6 months now, and it runs like a charm with MediaPortal. I'm slowly turning this into a massive "party" PC so I can invite people over and play games, or take it to parties and have a great night out. Here's what it can do so far: [LIST] [*]Utilise a Playstation controller for games [*]Plays NES, SNES, Sega, N64, PS1 and MAME games [*]Works with a Guitar Hero controller to play Frets on Fire [*]Works with a Wii remote to play FPS, strategy, racing and other games [*]Plug in a microphone to play UltraStar [*]Plug in a webcam to play Eye-Toy style games [*]Plug in Buzz! controllers to play my own custom quiz game [/LIST] And here's what I have planned for the future: [LIST] [*]Plug in a dance mat for StepMania moves [*]Plug in a light gun to play MAME [*]Support for more input controllers (ie. N64, SNES, NES, Wii Classic Controller etc.) [/LIST] But I'm wondering, where can I go from here? What PC (or easily emulated) games would be great for a party? Something where people have to get up off their seat and play would be great, however any sort of retro-hit or other fun "using the PS2 / Wii remotes" would be fantastic. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
