    Yeah Monster Hunter is the big one. Also I've never played it, but Dungeon Explorer looks like it would be pretty fun coop.

    Let me tell you about Demon's Souls....
    I’ll tell you what happens in Demon’s Souls when you die. You come back as a ghost with your health capped at half. And when you keep on dying, the alignment of the world turns black and the enemies get harder. That’s right, when you fail in this game, it gets harder. Why? Because fuck you is why.

    Games that I've played:
    Monster Hunter Freedom 2. Period. One of the best Co-Op games EVER and millions of Japanese people agree. *grin*

    If you aren't into having your ass handed to you on a constant basis, though (and Monster Hunter WILL hand your ass to you, chopped and grilled well done... you'll be crying for a lock-on system or a HP meter in the beginning), you can go for Diablo clone fare with Dungeon Siege: Broken World. Two player Co-Op only, and it is fairly buggy. But it's probably the best traditional Diablo clone game on the PSP. It's also really easy (just stack on a lot of Damage Add items).

    One of the best Co-Op multiplayer games isn't out in the States yet. It's Phantasy Star Portable (the OTHER big PSP game in Japan). Should be here in March of next year.

    Final Fantasy Tactics has Co-Op missions. Unfortunately, both players really have to get a Single Player game going to really take advantage of this. The Co-Op content is limited.

    Untold Legends (1 and 2) both have Co-Op, but they are really terrible games. Especially the 2nd one. If you REALLY want to play it, play the first one only.

    Games that I don't know about:
    I'm told that the PSP Tenchu game has Co-Op.

    Metal Slug Anthology MAY have Co-Op. I hope it does, at least. Metal Slug is fun, but two players is a blast.

    The Warriors Orochi has Co-Op multiplayer. If you like hack and slash Dynasty Warriors games, the Warriors Orochi is about the ULTIMATE in that genre.

    For the "Superhero variant" Diablo clone fare, X-Men Legends 2 and Marvel Ultimate Alliance is similar. They are well-done (I think, anyway) ports of their bigger brothers.

    I own this and can confirm that it does.

    Hah, ok. I was only interested in it because someone else on this board recommended it.

    Yeah, I rented it thinking it would be good. Probably one of the worst games on the PSP.

    It's great for maybe an hour or so. But the co-op on it forces you to play their characters, not the ones you were building up. So basically you start out at the max level and you find your gear from there. Really, really lame.

    I think you mean it's awesome.

    The beginning kind of sucks, but it gets badass when you get farther in.

    Are you talking about the Co-op? Because that's the context of the thread, and urahonky's comments about the co-op indicate that it would suck (I wouldn't want to play pre-set maxed out characters).

    Maybe. But then that means the beginning is full of all kinds of terrible. And this is coming from a man who defended Hellgate: London's mediocracy till it collapsed.
