Can anyone recommend some great co-op games?

Looking for some fun co-op games. Games I've played so far and loved are:

Dead Island
Dead Island Riptide
Dead Rising 2
L4D
L4D2
The Darkness II

Doesn't have to necessarily be zombie ones, but I did get a kick out of Dead Rising 2.

Thanks in advance!

If Dead Island didn't respawn zombies directly next to you while you're exploring, I'd actually play the dang game.

System Shock 2 has a co-op multiplayer component you might want to check out. One of the best games ever made.

FarCry4 and Borderlands2 are my favorite co-ops.

I've had tons of fun in FC4 with my friend. There's just so many different ways to approach things. It feels great when you can coordinate a stealth attack on an outpost.

These are PC co-ops..

Player 1 - KB/Mouse

Resident Evil 5 was a fun co-op, Borderlands 1/2, Lord of the Rings: War in the North was a fun playthrough co-op.

Serious Sam 3 BFE - cause shooting things with a friend is fun

Divinity: Original Sin
A fantasy RPG built from the ground up to be played in 2 player co-op. It is one of the best co-op experiences I have ever had in a CRPG.

alien swarm is pretty good. It's a free valve game that has 1 somewhat short campaign and lots of user content.

saints row 3/4 are good co-op games also

resident evil 5 was good, but I didn't like resident evil 6.
6 had some annoying co-op related camera issues and qte sequences that were harder with 2 players.

terraria is like a 2d minecraft, and has co-op

Is Far Cry 4 coop like Far Cry 3's "coop"? Where you have set missions and linear paths everywhere?

Or does it allow you to roam the map as you can in single player, except with a buddy along? That sounds like fun.

There is no free roam co-op.

So they are assigned linear "missions" ala Far Cry 3?

That's disappointing.


No, it's just the opposite. Co-Op in FC4 is free-roam, but you can't proceed through the linear story (which must be played as single).

Oh, that sounds great then!

I tried FC3's coop with my brother, and was more than disappointed with just how constrained it felt (and was), which is exactly the opposite of the entire appeal of the game.

I'll throw a vote in for Borderlands 2 and ask if Diablo 3 is any good for co-op?
