You just have to get Worms. Worms Armageddon is my personal choice, but any of the 2D games since Worms 2 would be a great choice. It's the ultimate hotseat game.
If you never played Worms before, it's like one of those tanks games where you have a 2D map, sideways viewed, and you have to destroy your enemy by firing weapons at them. You have to calculate trajectory and force ad weigh it against wind and stuff like that. But Worms does it with a wonderful sense of humour, a tremendous amount of fun and, well, some worms.
When you first start, you're all very bad and you'll probably spend more time killing your own worms than your enemy's - at this stage, the game is pure hilarity. I have never laughed as hard at any game as I have at Worms Armageddon. Eventually, that passes as you all start to get good. Then the game becomes a very serious affair as every rocket is a precise shot, ninja roping across seeming impassable obstacles becomes second nature and you know how to drop some TNT and escape without killing 3 of your own guys.
It's awesome as a 'comedy game' and it's just as good as a serious, tactical game. Easy to use map edititng tools and dozens of rules you can change keep the game fresh for a long time. It's just a perfect party game.
