Person Man Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 hey anyone know any good multiplayer games for gc? preferably cooperative not competitive. and simple enough for like my parents to play lol. thx Quote
Murmeli Walan Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 I'm assuming you mean GameCube. Sorry, but there isn't much beyond Super Smash Bros. Melee and Mario Kart Double Dash. Quote
Ffej Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 As far as simple, Wario Ware. As far as fun, X-Men Legends. Quote
Antipode Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Hmm, I can't think of too many co-op games for GC at all. I know there's a co-op mode in Wario Ware, Four Swords and also Wind Waker (Tingle on GBA). Don't forget about Double Dash with the co-op racing, too. I can't think of too many others, unfortunately. Oh, and in smash brothers you can do a team fight. Quote
SirChadlyOC Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 I haven't played it, but I hear the co-op mode in Pikmin 2 is pretty good. Also, I second the suggestion of X-Men Legends (1 or 2). Quote
Steben Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 four swords?????????????? QFE although good luck finding GBAs and cables for everyone. Quote
Katsurugi Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Mario Party Mario Tennis Bomberman Generation (but if you already have it for SNES or something, but probably shouldn't get this one) F-Zero GX Naruto Gekito Ninja Taisen 4 (if you're into that) Worms Armaggedon or similar Worms game Quote
watkinzez Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Pikmin 2 is a good one. Really though, the Cube isn't the best system for co op. Quote
The Damned Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 four swords??????????????QFE although good luck finding GBAs and cables for everyone. Double QFE. It's sort of like Mario Party. When you need to work together to advance, it's all chummy and "let's be friends!", but the instant there's a gem on the field, everyone starts throwing/bombing/fire rodding/arrowing each other. Luckily, I managed to play quite a bit of four-player thanks to everyone actually having a GBA and cheap link cables. Now a Wii/DS version would be a lot easier... Quote
Person Man Posted January 31, 2007 Author Posted January 31, 2007 wow cool thx guys! yea i have smash bros and double dash - ill look up the others mentioned. Quote
Gamelore Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Agreed. Despite the length, somewhat helpful thread. I was interested in coop games for GC, myself. I have less than 10 games, but they include SSBM, Pikmin 2, and Four Swords. I just need to open them, I guess. How is FF:CC? Quote
DiLEWSKI311 Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 eternal darkness.. despite in not meeting any of the pre-requisites Quote
Penfold Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 I personally really enjoyed playing Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles with a few friends. To really enjoy it, though, people really have to COOPERATE. I tried playing with some other friends a couple times, and it sucked the fun right out of it because they just wouldn't cooperate. The few I normally played with were the only ones I could play that game with after a while, just because we worked so well as a team. Quote
Dryer Lint Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance has 2-player coop. That Lego Star Wars game, too. I forgot the name. Donkey Konga 1+2 (this one is definitely easy enough for parents and other non-gamers) Quote
Brycepops Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Where's the Phantasy Star Online love ._. Quote
anthonium Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike That had single player and it included a co-op version of the entire Rogue Squadron II and a battle mode. The game isn't really easy though... Quote
snake857 Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 What about Timesplitters 2 and Future Perfect on two player co-op story mode, just finished with my mum and she doesn't know the first thing about videogaming it is pretty easy and the multiplayer modes are wicked plus the team deathmatchs which you can play co-op with your parents on the same team as you. Quote
Cecilff2 Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 I was just about to mention those. Even though there was more of a story to future perfect I'd go with 2 instead if you only get one. By the way, virus in chinese or Mexican Mission is pretty good. Quote
The Damned Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 How is FF:CC? If you think getting three other people with GBAs and link cables for a few hours of Four Swords is difficult, then don't even bother trying to get them together for Crystal Chronicles. Four Swords ic a game you and your friends can play and finish in one sitting, if you wanted to. FF:CC is a game that demands a lot of time to play. And I mean lots of time. Maybe a hundred hours to really get into it. But that sort of commitment seems to be beyond anyone. I think that the four of us, with the desire to actually play it as much as we could, never got past eight hours total. And then there were some problems where one of us wasn't around for a few games, and he fell behind a few levels, missed items and such... it unbalanced things a lot. Hopefully, the DS version will fix that right up. Quote

Hopefully, the DS version will fix that right up. That's a good point, actually. If someone missed a few play sessions, they fell pretty far behind and was damn hard to catch up again. Anyway, it does take time for that game. Not a hundred hours, but maybe more like 30-40. That's about what we played by the time we beat the final boss, if I recall. I'm definitely looking forward to the DS and Wii FF:CC games. Quote
DrEw. Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Tales of Symphonia is one of the best games I've ever played. And I played the whole thing on co-op. Quote
Penfold Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Tales of Symphonia is one of the best games I've ever played. And I played the whole thing on co-op. Oh yeah, ToS is a lot of fun with friends (that's the only way I played it too...all 3 times through). The one problem is in battles the camera only focuses on the first player, but I don't think it detracts from the experience too much. Good fun, good fun. Quote

The one problem is in battles the camera only focuses on the first player, but I don't think it detracts from the experience too much. Good fun, good fun. ToS multiplayer is kinda boring, except for the first player. I remember trying it with my suitemates but for everyone but the first player it was kinda bland. Quote

I really hope that they make FF:CC a WiFi game, that, or one where you don't need a GBA to play the games. >_< Quote
