Couch Co-Op: Couch or Local Co-Op allows players to use one copy of the game with multiple controllers to play co-op. This includes both split screen play and same screen play. Couches are not required.

SplitScreen: The TV is split into multiple screens so each co-op player gets their own viewpoint. The screen could be split vertically or horizontally.

LAN or Systemlink: Co-Op Play is available over a Local Network or System Link Connection. Most likely a router will be required, but you may use a crossover cable in some cases.

Drop-In/Drop-Out: Players can join or leave a cooperative game session at anytime without disrupting an existing player's game.

The Co-Op Experience: Player 1 takes control of the main character while the 2nd player takes control of female mercenary support character. There's full drop-in/drop-out support for a seamless online experience. When another player isn't there, the AI takes the role of the mercenary.

Split screen co-op is started by plugging in a second controller and pressing start on it in true drop-in fashion.

Resident Evil 5 Mercenaries Mode
 
Background:Resident Evil writes a chilling new chapter as the Umbrella Corporation's bioweapons have fallen into the hands of rogue leaders. Play as Chris Redfield in a remote desert colony overrun by a new breed of evil. With hordes of flesh-eating beings ready to make you their next snack, escape may be the best way to survive. Environments play an increased role, with horrors possibly lurking in every alcove or behind every shadow. New lighting effects will make you wonder - was that movement, or just an illusion? Good thing you're not alone. A new focus on co-op play teams you with a zombie-destroying sidekick Sheva, who changes the way RE is played.

best co-op game i've played in a long time

I loved this game, and it has great replay value. It's fun to play through it once, but then you can play through again on harder difficulties for a challenge, or easier difficulties just to enjoy the experience. Lots of weapons to collect, great graphics, and strong co-op elements.

Fantastic co-op game! This is my new favorite for the Playstation 3.

In addition to being able to play the story with a friend, the developers obviously thought about co-operative play. A very fun game.
