Great show guys! It's funny, when I asked my question about coop features, I know I had a specific one in mind, but was going to wait to share it. Now I can't remember what it was.On a little one, I would like to always be able to choose the direction of the split in split screen games. L4D is one of the few games I can think of that lets the player choose.I wholeheartedly agree with wanting an RTS that allows two people to operate the same base. It would be a ton of fun to just be able to concentrate on one area of an RTS, while your buddy takes care of another area.

Jerk! My experience was ruined, thanks to you. You're lucky this is a free service.

That rimshot placement was hilarious! Want to know what I'd like to see more in co-op games? A replay system. Like Halo 3.Scoff if you want...I'd love to re-live some of our more classic Left 4 Dead moments, maybe even throw them up on YouTube.

Thanks for pronouncing my name correct! I absolutely agree! I love that feature, even if Bungie sees that as User-generated Content and then can ban you from viewing your own playthroughs.About Podcast: I'm surprised you didn't mention Little Big Planet as a co-op title. Even though I never played it, it seems like a new idea.About the Game of the Year article, did you think about having a "user voted favorite"?About the stats you made for 2008:How many Co-op games came out on each platform?

I still haven't made time to listen to this podcast. I'd like to urge y'all to include a synopsis of each episode. It doesn't have to get too specific, but most sites with podcasts (at least the ones I frequent) list a few bullet points or specifics that are covered. For example, a hypothetical one for a Co-Opticast could include:Highlights from this podcast!* We debate/discuss the importance of drop in/drop out in co-op games* Nick clues us in to an upcoming patch for L4D* Results from the reader's poll for Best Game of 2008* Marc's embarrassing moment with his son drawing a Castle Crashers scene in church! * New swag contest for January!Just a thought. I'd have to imagine it wouldn't hurt anything, and would only entice more listeners.

I find it odd that Heroes of Might and Magic 2, 3, 4 and 5 are not in the main site list. These are some of the best co-op turn
