This is going to get lost in here, but hell why not.

It was an absolute blast OP. We had four TV's set up in the living room, each one had a game console attached to it and one of our roommates had gotten ahold of a Neo Geo arcade. Almost all of us were pretty introverted but somehow we ended up always having wild parties on the weekend, mainly because one of my roomies girlfriends would throw them and we all figured "hey, free booze."

We'd hold Puzzle Bobble contests during the parties, everyone would face off against each other, losers had to drink. We had a little white board that tallied who had won and lost and at the end the two with the most wins would face off against each other. The ultimate prize was being Puzzle Bobble Champion of the week. We had a Mickey Mouse wizard hat that was the trophy.

Other than that there'd just be games on in the background and music playing, the house was pretty big so you could cram a good amount of people in. Eventually we all moved out but I look back on those parties fondly.
