Every now and then a thread pops up reminding me about Jet Force Gemini. The amount of fun I have with that game still leads me to this day to consider it one of my top 10. Well for those of you who haven't played it, there is a point in the game where you put together a robot that follows you through the rest of the entire game. He's just a small little thing that you probably won't notice after a while, but what was fun about him, is if you ever wanted your friend to play he would just press start and be able to take control of the robot. While he couldn't move himself as he always  followed you around, (except during small mini type like games that required floyd to maneuver through small spaces) you were given a reticle on the screen. Floyd would always be staring wherever you placed that reticle. Give the trigger a squeeze and he would fire. 

Something as small as this made the game so much fun, and if a game isn't going to have co-op via 2 characters, then they need to implement co-op with there own floyd type creation. Make improvements on it via more then one weapon type, something. That's a quick fix to taking very little GPU and PCU power while not losing any entertainment value. I had so much fun with floyd I would like to see it back.

Dude, did you finish Jet Force Gemini? That ending was probably the worse ending I've ever seen. Complete turn off after that!

I don't reject the idea of adding a Floyd in every TPS though! Kind of like in Super Mario Galaxy with the 2P, right?

One of the reasons I'm looking forward to Resident Evil 5.

just cause the ending sucked doesn't mean the rest the game is bad. :P

and I sincerely hope that it's not like the second player in SMG, because that was the most pointless and boring addition ever to such a game.

"yay, two player mode.... oh wait, I get to shoot starbits, which basically have no use anyway, since player one will take care of the threat anyway"...

OK fine... Oh wait, nevermind, Tribals are assholes! Especially when you know right at the end of the game that you need to save them all if you want to finish the game.

This, my friends, is a "true" fetch quest at the end of a game, not like in the Metroid Prime games (I didn't even notice them).

The tribals did suck, that pissed me off considering i always caught them on fire instead of saving them. Lots of back tracking.
