My husband has recently discovered how awesome i am at games and we are looking for some good co-op games that we could play together. We are currently playing Borderlands 2 but nearing the end. Also, we just finished Fear 3 in less than 24 hours and it was pretty lame.

Any particular genre you’re looking for?  
More importantly, what’s your platform?

We are on the xbox 360. I dont really have a specific genre in mind, although he enjoys first person shooters such as fallout and borderlands, but I dont want to play Halo or Gears of War if there are other options out there. I usually only play rpgs but there aren’t co-op rpgs that I have found.

I have basically no Xbox experience, so I can’t make specific recommendations. However, wikipedia does have a list of co-op Xbox 360 games at [List of Xbox 360 games - Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cooperative_games_for_the_Xbox_360) and you should be able to find more specific information there as well. Hope this helps.

Hi Angeleyes612

you could check out

> This page contains a list of co-op games for the Xbox 360. You'll find all of the features available including online, couch, and split-screen play, whether the game has a cooperative campaign or separate co-op modes. Find out the number of co-op...

my sugestion for something other then shoot-em-ups are the lego games,  
Lego Harrie Potter Years 1-4 are my favorite of the serie
