Co-op titles are a big hit in the industry right now and for good reason. There's something oddly fun about taking down the enemy with a friend at your side. As of late I find myself saying more and more that I would have enjoyed a title much more if it simply allowed cooperative gameplay. So I thought I'd take a look back at some of my favorite recent games and figure out which top four franchises I'd like to see get a full co-op sequel. Without further delay, here they are from least to most wanted.
4. Legend of Zelda
Nintendo has tinkered around with multiplayer aspects in the Zelda franchise in the past by allowing players to control characters via the GBA on the gamecube titles. However, I'd love to see a full fledged, modern co-op Zelda. The puzzles could really take advantage of making two players work together to solve and horseback archery would work so much better if one player could take the reigns while the other handled the bow.
3. Fable
Yes, I'm aware that Fable 2 did allow co-op but to say that I considered it a failure is putting in nicely. I know this won't win me many fans but I found Fable 2 to be sub-par in almost every category so I'm willing to forget about it and wipe the slate clean if Lionhead is willing to completely redo the title with decent co-op.
2. Dead Rising
The mere thought of this might be stuff that dreams are made of. I loved the original. I remember leaving the title screen up as I slept in order to hear the constant moaning of the undead hordes. To play this game with a friend would be unbelievable. Think of the zany unarmed combat moves you unlocked such as body-slamming zombies. Now picture two people tag teaming them. There is just so much to do in Dead Rising that it would make great co-op. From running, fighting, or barricading yourself in stores; a cooperative play Dead Rising would keep me entertained for weeks.
1. Elder Scrolls
For some time fans have been asking for a multiplayer aspect to an Elder Scrolls title. Betheseda always responds by stating that they are striving to create the greatest single player experience that they possibly can and, in many ways, they have. However, allowing one extra person to play alongside wouldn't exactly destroy the game would it? Elder Scrolls is such a fundamentally sound franchise that I think it could survive the transition from "The greatest single-player experience" to "The greatest co-op experience".
