For the last while, Telly and I have been slowly making our way through Halo: Combat Evolved (Xbox) in co-op play, something we've never done before. We started off on the Legendary difficulty, only to find out that we really suck; so we started again on Heroic and had a great time.
It's a lot of fun the kind of tactics and team work that two people can do, and how certain battles play out very differently with the two of you. It also helps when you're working together instead of being run down by your idiot ally's Ghost. Dumbass.
Having generally played Slayer matches, we already had a good understanding of our strengths and weaknesses, so I typically engaged enemies up close while Telly was great at picking enemies of with a Sniper Rifle. In all truth, Telly's a better shot, but his driving skills suck ass. No, really. He couldn't even take a Wraith out with a Scorpion, so I had to show him how it's done with a puny Ghost, no less. I don't want to brag or anything, but I really am Uber.
Anyway, we did find certain levels harder since we were sharing ammo and such, most notably the Library, everyone's least favourite level. The ending Warthog getaway was a blast with an ally though, as someone could actually mount the chaingun for once.
Playing Halo: Combat Evolved through with co-op was a lot of fun, so now I guess it's time to move on to Halo 2.
