ya guitar hero might be a good choice, because you don't actually have to know how to read to play. you just have to look at the colored notes on screen and play accordingly.
something you probably never heard of (and you'll have good luck if you can actually find a copy somewhere, lol) is mercury meltdown revolution. it has some fun multiplayer modes. the game was $20 when it came out (so it's not like it's that mush of a leap)
oh, and shame on everyone that didn't mention boom blox!!! that game would be great for your situation too.
that's all i can think of right now.
