The Horrible Show 12-01-10: Co-op Gaming with Enemies

We start off December with our much postponed co-op gaming discussion. Justin, Cole, Ethan, and Christina are joined by our guest, Coop. From Contra to Gears of War we buddy up to save the world and help you run a proper co-op gaming experience. Send in your questions to [email protected] or @TheHorribleShow

We love co-op games and have no idea why we haven’t focused on them sooner, but here we are, and what better way to talk about them than with our buddy, Coop. But first things first, and that means Threesomes of the Week. Ethan tries to calm himself with kid’s movies but just ends up getting thrown out of a bar. The On the Spot question wants to know what game do you wish had co-op? Cole misunderstands co-op for tricking a buddy into being your mule in Dragon Age. Co-op gaming not only takes a great game but players that know how to play co-op. We establish some rules to co-op gaming like no overdomination, no douchebags, and don’t take it too seriously, but in the end just end up fighting about Left 4 Dead 2, Gears of War, and Halo. Who ever said you needed to get along to co-op?
