Co-Opportunity - The IGF Finalists

December 13th, 2005, By Duncan Gough

The IGF finalists have been announced, according to Slashdot. I’m pleased to see Dofus in there.

More strikingly, though, is another request for a decent co-op game by a poster on Slashdot. What went wrong with co-op games? I’m guessing that someone, somewhere must really despise them since there’s plenty of money being spent on advanced game AI, MMORPGs and the like, but little or no support for co-op modes in games anymore.

Not the first time that this has been brought up on Slashdot either. I’ve had a co-op post drafted for some time, I’m going to go back to it to see if it still makes any sense…
