Looking to enjoy some video games with your significant other? There is a massive list of games to choose from. However, if you’re wanting to enjoy something that can be enjoyed locally then here is a good selection to start with. There’s a diverse set of games on this list so there’s hopefully something for everyone. With that said, because these games range drastically between genres, we’re not listing these titles in any particular order.
#10 Team Sonic Racing
The kart racing scene has been dominated by Nintendo with their incredibly popular Mario Kart franchise. Each new platform release comes with a new installment for fans to enjoy but if you don’t own a Nintendo console platform, then you’re out of luck. However, that doesn’t mean there are not alternatives that have gained quite a bit of praise one of which is Team Sonic Racing. Sega has brought out a few installments in the past that are based around kart racing such as the previous release, Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, which offered fans an assortment of Sega IP characters and game courses to race within. Team Sonic Racing, however, is all about Sonic characters and levels based around his franchise.
You can likely imagine how this game plays out if you’re familiar with other kart racers. You’ll have a variety of tracks and scattered around those tracks is different power-ups that can either buff your vehicle up a bit or provide an attack ability against other players. The result is a high-speed barreling race mixed with a bit of chaos while you attempt to cross the finish line first. As mentioned, this game series has other installments so if you would like something that features a little more than just Sonic the Hedgehog IP you can look into the previous installment which is Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. However, this game is not specifically available on the Xbox One platform as it launched for last-generation platforms. With that said, it is backward compatible which means you can still enjoy the game on the Xbox One, and honestly, it holds up well.
