Neither did Mass Effect 2. Man I hate Celine Dion.

OT: It got a little lost and got panned by a few reviewers as well. 



No one in the world ever gets what they want, and that is beautiful.

I guess you didn't see the Canadian Mass Effect 2 commercials. The ones with "My heart will go on" playing while Sheppard is being put together at the beginning... :)

I dont think so. 4 player coop is alive and kicking. Left 4 dead, borderlands sales are proof of that.

Shitty game coop is prolly dying...

Those are pretty bad examples. I bet you can't name a single co-op game from this decade that has done well... =P

Super Mario Galaxy. :B I'm just kidding. God I hate the second player mode in galaxy. -.-

LittleBigPlanet and New Super Mario Bros. Wii also have 4 player co-op XD Just saying. 

Exclusively 2 player Co-Op might be on the downward spiral though..I can't think of many games off hand that are only 2 players. Even RPG's tend to have more than 2 players if they have multiplayer (Eternal Sonata, Tales of Vesperia). Of course then again, you could just be talking about shooters...dunno.

Yeah I was thinking of coop games that are similar to Army of 2.

bang bang! not boing boing! :)
