The best video games to play with friends and family this holiday season

There are not many local co op games anymore.Diablo 3, little big planet3 and the cod games have co op.Oh and borderlands.
 
Fun, i was by coincidence looking into exactly that sort of thing for a gaming night with friends (on the Xbox). The games that did pop up in my searches, requirements were: Must be easy to get into , without any instruments/kinect requirements (since i don't have any) and "accommodate any number of players". That last bit means, if it's a 2-player local, then it must be tournament based to allow quick player swopout.

My discovery (other than the ones in the article):
Diablo 3 : 4 players local coop
Halo: Master Chief Collection: 2 players local coop / 4 players local tournies (i.e. ctf/deathmatch etc)
Mortal Kombat XL : 2 players local versus (this game is on special right now, hence me noticing it, but i am missing tag team coop here)
Forza 6 : local 2player splitscreen (i would have prefered this on Forza 3 Horizons, but alas!)
Lara Croft & Temple of Osiris : local 4 player coop
