(the app is forcing me to put a link so I put Timesplitters 2 gameplay cuz this is mostly a text post)

Hi everyone! I've been feeling frustration about games lately, remembering experiences I had as a kid playing co-op story games with my friends, like Timesplitters and Destroy All Humans, etc.

Modern multiplayer games sometimes have some co-op elements, but many of them are party games like Human Fall Flat or Among Us, or big Battle Royales or Multiplayer shooters. The co-op ones seem to only be survival games like The Forest.

I'm always looking for good co-op experiences to play with my friends, but it's hard to find what I am looking for. I recently played It Takes Two with my partner and that was so wonderful.

Does anyone know any games like what I am looking for? It seems these kinds of games are so few and far between, sadly.

An emulator and Parsec. Any game that was couch co-op is now long distance couch co-op.

Madden doesn't let you play on the same team in a franchise unless you're on the same console. I don't have time to regularly play Madden AND have my friend come to the house. Occasionally he pops in for a night and we play a few games, but most of the time we just hop on Parsec and Chat through Discord.
