Going all the way back to the days of Super Mario Brothers, games have always been more fun to play when you have a good friend, or not so good if you're losing, with you on the couch to share the experience. Now looking at gaming in the present day it's clear that this game type has still not lost its appeal, as games continually take advantage of the friendly functionality. Of course there was never really a dark age of cooperative play in games, but the recent popularity has come along with the high notoriety of console shooters, especially the Halo series. But while this gameplay is at its peak of popularity, can it really hold on its own as the central theme of a game?
It's important in life to maintain a broad palette when it comes to culture and the arts. Hideo Kojima agrees, as he continues to use video games like Death Stranding to introduce people to music and other elements they might not otherwise discover.
Mojang has partnered with Merlin Entertainments to build the world's first Minecraft theme park in the UK.
A three-episode live-action adaptation of the first two Yakuza video games will debut Tuesday, March 17 exclusively IGN. Each episode is about an hour long and will stream on IGN.com and IGN’s YouTube channel.
Army of Two was ok... I wasn't a huge fan...
I have really fond memories of Gears of War's co op, hopefully they have 4 player coop in the sequel.
as it's decent i'm ok with it.
Otherwise,single player is great too.
I like the inclusion of co-op as an added feature to a game, but I really don't like it as the focus. My wife only plays certain games, and there's no one else around who does any gaming, so local co-op is tough. Also, those who aren't on high-speed connections can't really do the online co-op games, so a good sized chunk of the gaming world misses out on these style of games.
When I was younger I used to love co-op. Nowadays I rather much have an awesome storyline single player game. Give me more games like Uncharted please.
