"A good co-operative game?"

I'm staying round at a friends house next week for a few days and I've decided that I want a new co-op game for us to play. We've still got CDS2 to complete so that'll keep us occupied for a while. Any suggestions?

I already have Mario Kart, TS2, Baldurs Gate and have Judge Dredd for the PC.

Phantasy Star Online, except you be palying the co-op offline but still it's really good regardless.

Indeed they do, also in CC you and your friend can time your focus attacks ontop of each other and under the enemy for attack or magic combos that are quite powerful compared to just both attacking one at a time. also when one character is down the other would have to revive or heal them so you have to work out who needs to do what job for the team and so on. Also you can let one character be bait for the boss and the other attack from behind and heal the other when they are down and try again at the bait thing.

Heh, you already have all the best co-op games, there's no beating Mario Kart and TS2! But FF:CC is worth a go, the co-op is tactical and a lot of fun if you have the time to play co-operatively for a good long while. Plus of course, the graphics will knock your socks off.

Gauntlet: Dark Legacy is worth a blast if you get it cheap.

It's not the most impressive game you'll find.
Just the classic hack and slash adventure game with absolutely NO depth to it. But with 3 friends, it's sort of fun. :-)

Well... to play FF:Crystal Chronicles you NEED the GBA and Link Cable and for each player, although if you buy soon you can still get the special edition pack which comes with a link cable.

The GBA acts as the controller in multiplayer, and it can be used to show stuff like your stats, a radar, maps, objectives or inventory screens, allowing you to change equipment while your friends keep playing.

Recieved the game yesterday and although I haven't tried Multiplayer yet it looks like it might be a bit of fun if you have the equipment.

Hope that helps!

I haven't noticed the difference between the both. CDS2 seems like more of an expansion pack than a new game. What's FF:CC like without the GBA's? Usually the GBA link up offers hardly anything and I can't see how it will make the game better using them.

Hmmm......FF:CC is probably the best co-op game made, but then again, it's pricey if you don't already have the tools.....

The first Desert Storm is better than the second, I think in co-op anyway.

If you've got GBA's and link leads, then FF:CC is probably worth a shot, but i'm sure someone will come up with a better suggestion.
