The majority of new fps/action games dont come with co-op as a game mode anymore which sucks because co-op is so much fun especially with friends and at lan partys. Hell i still play co-op doom I&II, and Duke Nukem 3d with friends. Why aren't game developers making co-op in fps/action games anymore? The newest fps with co-op that i know of is Serious Sam II which is pretty decent. Anyone else miss this great multiplayer mode and want developers to make it again?

P.S. Any suggestions on good co-op games? I don't mind old games.

Rainbow Six: Raven Shield had great co-op and they have taken some of the core co-op modes and put them into the new Rainbow Six: Vegas.

I know what you mean, besides me I have 4 other bros and we always play co-op on games like Raven Shield and Athena Sword and Battlefield games we played on LAN servers. But some new games don't allow it, F.E.A.R. just added co-op one on the new patch, but Half Life, Call of Duty and Medal of Honor would be cool with co-op.

Its seems to me that most shooters that come out for the xbox have co-op. ( GOW, GRAW, RainbowSix, Splinter Cell, Halo ) I think the reason games like COD and F.E.A.R. dont have co-op is because they try so hard to design those game to be cross platform from PC. The question is, why isn't co-op popular in PC FPS.

Co-op is really fun. I mean, jeez, it doesn't have to be in-depth, I honestly wouldn't mind if it was just tossed in for the hell of it. Playing side-by-side is fun.

Does Swat 4 have co-op? It might, and it's a good tactical game.

GRAW,and Rainbow Six both require coordination and care, since you get killed in a few hits and can't get healed, and splinter cell has co-op?That seems weird.

I like co-op like in doom I and II and in Duke Nukem 3d where you go in with a few friends and blast everything together- Thats what i miss

Sven Co-op for half-life 1. That is a pretty awesome mod. I think they are working on a source one too, that'll be sweet. I agree though, co-op is sweet and there should be more of it.

I wish designers will think like what F.E.A.R and Half Life did with making mods/patches for making co-op possible for future games.

i'd like to see squad-based co-op in games like brothers in arms or republic commando.  something like two squad leaders + 3 squad mates each.

i have high hopes for army of two even if it never hits the pc.

I don't understand why Army of Two isn't coming to PC. It doesn't do anything the PC couldn't and being made by EA I would have expected them to rack in money for it off every system. I mean comon the one time there welcome to they don't.
