Post by: shanghaiguide on April 18, 2011, 04:33:21 pm: Jackal, Bubble Bobble - although obviously people mentioned them above..

Jackal was a hidden jewel for me. Still haven't finished it, but can get to the last stage pretty much every time I play.

Ikaruga.

Gauntlet - now that stole tons of money from my childhood piggy bank hehe.

If I remember right, Evevator action 2 was pretty awesome as a coop.

Xenophobe

Sunset riders and Captain America are a couple side scrollers I don't think were mentioned.

Post by: eds1275 on April 19, 2011, 02:24:06 pm: The Sengoku series, and anything else where youi walk from left to right kicking ass. Bonus points if they have an elevator stage.

Cmon Vigo. I got you, I mentioned Captain America and the Avengers. :cheers: Not sunset riders though. Not a fan.
Title: Re: Your favorite 2 player co op games....
Post by: RayB on April 19, 2011, 04:59:23 pm: Side-Arms was cool because you can merge together. (Assuming I'm not on crack and remembering wrong)

My Bad! It was a great game, but I always felt Ironman and Vision had the advantage since they could shoot downward while in mid air.They really didn't give Captain America and Hawkeye much to offset that.

I forgot to add 1943 to my list. When one player is hurt bad he can "leech" life off the other player.
