Hey Escapist me and my friend ( Known here as Fjeld ) Are looking for a new co-op game to pass the time and split the price on. Anyone know of any good ones?
Best new co-op game?

Well, I for one think Sacred 2 is a lot of fun to play with a friend. If you played Gauntlet Dark Legacy back in the day and loved it (and I don't know how it would even be possible to have played that game and not loved it), then you'll probably like Sacred 2. The gameplay is like if you took Gauntlet, fleshed it out with customizable RPG elements, and instead of having levels just made one big open world with lots of different areas.
EDIT: The one thing to note, is that it suffers from the same problem as Dead Rising, that being that the text can only be read well on an HD tv. You can still read it on a normal TV, but it takes a lot of effort. That said, the text is only really important for the backstory most of the time, and I'll be honest, I didn't come to Sacred 2 for the backstories to the various side quests... I just came to have some fun.

Since we're playing it at his house I'll say consoles. Xbox 360 and a Wii. Just recommend 360 games unless it's really really good on the wii. We're mostly PC gamers but we're looking for a 360 game.AnOriginalConcept said:
Just name all your recommendations we really don't have many Co-Op games and I can't name them off the top of my head.Eliam_Dar said:
Nearly every console FPS has splitscreen, so I won't bother mentioning those.
From XBLA:
'Splosion Man is inexpensive and fun. The game play is shallow and a little easy, though.
Castle Crashers is a short beat-em-up.
Wii:
New Super Mario Bros is a great multiplayer platformer.
