What games had (or will have) the best co-op in it? Am making a list
here, and came up with 4 off the top of my head:

Army of Two (Multi)
Crackdown (Xbox 360)
Halo 3 (Xbox 360)
Two Worlds (Multi)

Any other games with notable co-op?

This year. Gears of War was LAST year.

I asked what games in 2007 have or will have co-op.

On that note, Rainbow Six Vegas was a 2007 release for the PS3 -- but
I'm shying away from ports of last year's game (which is why Gears of
War (PC) isn't a serious candidate, either.)

You didn't ask specifically for this year...

"What games had (or will have) the best co-op in it?"

I see no reference to only requiring 2007 games in the original post.

If you'd been paying attention, I've been posting stuff from the 2007
games of the year awards for my site, getting new possible nominees
for the minor categories.

Come on now -- how is someone supposed to know that just from the
context of this one post?

Sorry, my bad for not reading your previous posts. I clicked on this one
as the subject was interesting to me as I have enjoyed some good co-op
games on XBL.

Now looking back, I can see your post 2007 GOTY from over a week ago.

Maybe a referesher for us lazy sods would have helped...

"As you will recall from my earlier posts I am compiling a GOTY for 2007
and I need help with..."

Sorry for wasting your time.

Also if you're asking for nominations for 2007 in October and you don't
include games released in November and December of the previous year how
will they ever get nominated?

i.e. next year you will ask for best of 2008 and not include games yet
to be released in 2007 which can't be included in the 2007 nominations?

You're clearly too mature and tolerant to be in this newsgroup. Get out!

Army of Two has been released? It was included in the original post which
implies the question was about current and future games, so Haze would fit
in that list.

No, that is why he is including yet to be released 07 games. That
takes care of all games in 07.

Yes. Keep in mind, the list isn't final til mid-Dec. I just want all
the titles *to look out for* when they come out and decide if they
deserve to be nominees. It's basically a guide.

I wouldn't apologize to that gimp! He should have specified, whether or not
his other post had the year specified, as if his arrogance states that
people are suppose to read Jonah and research him altogether, so as to read
what he says. Then again, maybe you should do that this one time, and find
out for yourself how much you wouldn't give a rat's ass about his thoughts
in gaming.

The Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance games were excellent, D&D Heroes had
four player co-op but that wasn't quite as good. X Men Legends and
Marvel Ultimate Alliance were also pretty good too.

Which is a bit retarded when you want to find out the best co-op games
because no-one has played them yet.

As has been pointed out: "10 items or fewer"; and that's the best game
in a Co-Op, not the best co-op in a game. :p
