OK thanks, I was only talking about PC games btw, not console ones.
Now that HL2 coop mode sounds interesting! Also Serious Sam could be a blast, better check that out. Just remembered that Quake 2 was coop (I think). I enjoyed coop so much on Quake1&2 I bought all the mission packs.
Re: System Shock 2, I played it coop for about an hour until I found out that only one of the players could upgrade, this must have been a bug/oversight. I presume it was sorted in a patch then?
I really think coop is the king of gaming, Deathmatch etc can be fun but it's totally competitive. Team deathmatch, CTF, Base Assult etc allow for more coop style play, but I REALLY LOVE working through the single player game with a friend, this for me is the height of gaming. It of course started with games like Gauntlet, in fact a few oldies allowed two players at once. Some other great coop games are Balders Gate etc, controlling half a party each is brilliant.
