Good games to play drunk?

Super Meat Boy.
When pretty hammered.. SMB can really be fun. SO hard but because you're wasted you just keep going. Friend and I played it for hours one night a few months back.
 
I can't really game while I am drunk, I can "pre game" and make a drinking game out of gaming before I go out though.

I use to play Street Fighter 4 before I went out. Every time I lost I would take a shot.
 
I liked early Asura's Wrath for that since it was crazy hot blooded and mainly just mashing in whatever buttons showed up. Though the game actually gets legitimately hard later so it's not really a good suggestion through to the end.
 
Battlefield or anything team based. The Last of Us MP drunk is awesome, especially when i get out my melee/machete/samurai build. insane amounts of laughter.

flying anything like a blackhawk while drunk is loaded with potential.
 
Dota 2 is also fun, though 90% of the time I wake up to find myself in low priority queue for at least a couple days lol.
 
Mario Party, Wii Sports, any Nintendo mini-game-esque game really.

Also, Rock Band and Guitar Hero are pretty entertaining, too.
 
I've got a pretty strong tolerance for the b00ze, so I rarely get wasted let alone while playing games. However the games I enjoy playing while drinking are usually either horror games, chill indies, or some open-world game where I can just slink about and stealth things. No racing games or anything where precise movement is required. Definitely no QTE-heavy games. I had a few drinks the other night while playing Heavy Rain and I just ended up sitting there letting all the QTEs elapse while downing an ice-cold IPA.

On PC: TF2 or Left for Dead. Both are great drunk in LAN.

On console: any Timesplitters game is perfection for drunkards.
 
Don't play Demon's/Dark Souls drunk unless you want to wake up in the morning and have all the NPCs either dead or thirsting for your blood.

Or do, if that sounds exciting to you.
 
Say what you will about fake plastic instruments, but getting together with a bunch of friends and playing Rock Band while drinking was a lot of fun.
 
Mario Chase from Nintendoland is great drinking.

I'd have to go with Rock Band though, some late night post bar hammered jams were the best.
 
I don't like playing games drunk. I enjoy rpgs and fps' high though.


Edit: Forgot I do dust off the Dreamcast when I drink, it's been a minute . . .
 
Most recently, European Truck Simulator 2 and especially Farming Simulator 2013.

And tangentally, one of the best times I've ever spent gaming was on oxycodone for tooth pain and playing Pacman Championship Edition DX.
 
These are all bad suggestions for someone who's concerned about reaction times.

Peggle is your game, man. You don't do shit, just shoot the marble and giggle.
