I know you said no shooters but I can't even begin to tell you how much fun Resident Evil 5 is when you're playing with a friend. I must have played through that game about 12 times with several different people and I NEVER play through games that many times. Dead Island is also really fun if you team up with 3 other people, Portal 2 is another fun one (if you're into puzzle solving) and you'll get some laughs out of it.

I second portal 2. If you like 2d platformers, rayman origins is good for 2 players (it has 4 player coop, but 2 player coop is best) - but this is offline multi only. Not wholly recommended, because it's definitely not your best bang for buck.
Oh yeah RE5 is also really fun, I wish the game itself wasn't so boring :(I know you said no shooters but I can't even begin to tell you how much fun Resident Evil 5 is when you're playing with a friend.

Well....GTA4 basically is a shooter and since you like that I would check out Red Dead Redemption and maybe Saints Row. Everything about Saints Row is pretty much non-competitive and is all about fooling around. Borderlands is also good.RAGEofSTUNTSYeah, I know that GTA4 is a shooter, but most of the times in free-mode I just like doing wicked stunts while running over people. :P Saints Row 3 sounds good. I didn't know that it has a multiplayer feature in that game. Resident Evil 5 and Dead Island? But that is a shooter! -_- I have enough co-op shooters already. From Halo, Killzone 3, Dead Nation, to CoD:WaW & Spec Op missions. Having ANOTHER co-op shooter will just feel a little bland. Games where I could just fool around and jump around effortlessly with other people (Like in LBP) is awesome! Too bad Rayman isn't online co-op. Would of been fun. As for Portal 2, I got a question for that: Wouldn't be the type of game, where once you beat the puzzle, there is no point of replaying it again - since you already know how to solve it? That is what I am afraid of. No replayability. Unless could you play user-generated maps with other players in Portal 2 for the PS3? That would keep the replay value going. As of so far; Skate 3, Saints Row 3, and Portal 2 (that is if Portal has user-generated content in it) seem to all have great replayability and fun casual gameplay to play with friends and other players. Out of the three, based on your guys experience which ones has the most replay value to play with other players? Skate 3 looks good, because it is like an open world sandbox skater game where you can customize your character, create levels, and mess around with rag doll physics. Saints Row 3 looks cool, because there are plenty of chaotic activities that doesn't always have to do deal with "Shoot this" type of missions. Also has lots of unique customizing character features. Portal 2 seems ok...I am just unsure how long this game would possibly last. Plus it doesn't seem like a fast paced game. I think I will see if I could get it from my public library. If there are any other cool games out there, please feel free to let me know. I am thinking about getting one of these games to buy for a relative for upcoming Christmas so we can play co-op together. Yeah, I will buy a copy of my own too if it doesn't offer split-screen co-op.
For games where you and a friend can play against a CPU you can try Blokus, Dead Island, Dead Nation, Earth Defence Force Insect Armageddon or Magic 2012.
You can try the puzzle Blokus online for free to see if you like it, just go the company's main page and you can play for free against CPU or online against other humans.
For Dead Island, you can play the game with a friend or with the Bloodbath DLC in four arenas against waves of zombies.
Earth Defence Force lets you take on wave after wave of monsters with a freiend.
Magic 2012 lets you play offline or online with a friend against the CPU - considering what the cards cost, it's a great PSN bargain.
