Post subject:  Nearly completed Borderlands, so...
Before I set about playing it all over again with a different character class, or at the higher level setting; I need to think about a new FPS for next weekend when one of my best mates is coming up to see our mutual best mate who's pregnant with our godson... She's suggested Black Ops, but I've heard it's really short, and warned her to check if it had a co-op game first, (since MW2 special forces did nothing for us)

So, considering we have caned through Halo 3, Halo Reach, MW2 & Borderlands - what else is there (really) worth getting?

Black Ops?
Medal of Honor?
Homefront?
Killzone?

Happy to buy an old game (ie. Wolfenstein, Far Cry, etc) so long as they were decent co-op games to begin with....

oh yeah, 360 only. I can't play for longer than 30min with a PS3 controller. :roll:

Ops doesn't have a co-op IIRC, and is just a disgrace all round...

Might be an idea to YouTube the co-op modes for the games I spose :|

I don't know about "really" worth getting, but i'll throw some games out that i believe are coop for 3-4? players.

Call of Duty: World at War - I know many people bitched at this being Treyarch, but in reality it was a good game and shamed MW2 with its Dedicated Server support and coop campaign (i know it's 4 player on the PC). It also introduced Nazi Zombie mode which is a blast to play coop, albeit can be very repetitive and i think might require having completed the game before it gets unlocked.

Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising - From a sequel standpoint it's rather poor... also from a multiplayer standpoint it's rather poor. However from a singleplayer campaign standpoint it isn't too bad if you want a more realistic CoD, but not so mil-sim that it becomes ArmA. Again, i only know that 4 player coop is on the PC, not sure about the 360.

Halo 3: ODST - I saw you mentioned 3, and Reach, but you didn't mention this? Sure you don't get to be a supersoldier Spartan but it makes for a somewhat refreshing change and in reality there's not much difference since you're using guns anyways. The soundtrack in the deserted city is excellent and overall i think it's a good buy.

Transformers: War for Cybertron - Not quite sure whether or not this would appeal, but IIRC it's got 3 player COOP campaign.

Other than that, off the top of my head i can't think of any more (relatively decent) games that do coop for more than 2 players. However check out Co-Optimus which has an extensive list of coop games for the 360 (and other platforms mind you).

You know I quite like playing Resident Evil in co-op.

I played Halo 2 coop with a friend on Legendary.

Was tough but we managed it. The Flood are ridiculous though.

Good co-op and cheap cos it's old but still a very good game.

Not coop. At most you can do the Onslaught mode which is 4 player i believe, but it's just your typical Horde/Firefight a la Gears/Halo.

by "co-op", do you mean on the same console, or across a network on separate machines?

because if its the latter, left 4 dead 1 and/or 2 should cover you, both are awesome, and have tons of playability :D

Yes.

...thanks for the suggestions so far, I guess what I failed to mention/stress was that I can never get on with third person games, (I must have played Lost Planet for about 5mins before giving it up, so Gears & Dead Space are out ) and not to fussed on technical games (Rainbow Six's demo bored me solid).

Maybe I should've written a list of games I've been interested in and query a. does it have co-op campaign, b. has anyone played it, and c. would they recommend it.

Fear?
Black?
Brink?
Deus Ex?
Resistance?
Far Cry 2?
