CLSC

We've got two great examples of Co-Op Classics for you once again, in glorious video form. Both of today's games are shoot em ups, so there are plenty of bullets to dodge and fire buttons to mash. The first is one of the most beautifully rendered games, with an unusual setting, that I've ever seen. The second is very different from other genre classics, including a heavy amount of customization. Progear and Rohgah Armor Force are headed your way.

Progear

Developed in 2001, this arcade title might be pushing it when it comes to calling it a classic. However, after just a few moments spent playing it, it's clear that Progear is something special. The hand-drawn graphics are breathtaking, and the biplanes with a choice of both pilots and gunners, are definitely unusual. The difficulty and sheer spectacle of the entire game truly make Progear, despite the generic name, a very memorable shooter.
