    Default Best Co-Op Games of all time?

    God knows we all love our Adventure games and RPGs, but sometimes you just want to sit down with a pal and beat a game together. Name some of your favorite co-op games. I'll start with a few Gain Ground, Cannon Spike, Streets Of Rage 2, and Halo...

    It's been a long time since I've played anything co-op, but I can remember a few good co-op games.

    Golden Axe II(any Golden Axe is good co-op, I mostly played that one)
    The Simpsons arcade game

    Man, they need to put The Simpsons arcade game on to XBOX LIVE or something. I used to spend hours playing that cab at the local pizza joint.

    yeah man that game rocked!

    only it was a close 2nd to the orginal x-men arcade unit... the big big one with dazzler



    Oh man the money that game stole from me and my cousin and random other ppl after we pumped like ten bucks each into it and beat only to be let down with a bad ending... it still rocked though...

    Streets of Rage 2 IMO is the best co-op game of the 16bit era. Golden Axe 2 and TMNT Hyperstone Heist is right up there too.

    A lot of the games I was thinking of have already been mentioned. But what the heck... Here are a lot of the games I loved to play Co-Op on.

    Ikari Warriors, Gauntlet, NARC, Contra, Bad Dudes, Cyberball, Twin Cobra, Doom, Quake 1-2, Double Dragon, Golden Axe, Halo 3, Gears of War, Battletoads, Twisted Metal, Operation Wolf, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Smash TV, Gunstar Heroes, and Joust.

    Ummm, probably a lot more but can't think of them right now.

    I would also add Halo, Contra, Double Dragon 1-2, Doom 3, TMNT, GAunlet and Gears to my list. But I would also add the Spider-Man arcade game. It was best when you got to play as Spidey but still a fun game overall.

    The arcade here (yes we still have one for now) still has one of these machines in good working order. When I was there the other day a full 6 people were playing it and really getting into it. It was an awesome site that made my day.

    Noone has mentioned Twisted Metal 2.

    For shame, for shame, for shame.

    Sunset Riders Arcade is an awesome 3 player co-op game.

    I always found Perfect Dark to be pretty fun in co op and counter op modes.
