BioWare's co-op looter shooter where you pilot flight-capable Javelin exosuits across a lush, wild world alongside up to three friends. The flying and visuals are superb, but the content and endgame remained thin.

Halo 3: ODST

Instead of Master Chief, you play a fragile ODST trooper roaming a dark, occupied New Mombasa, piecing together your squad's fate through flashback missions set to a moody noir-jazz score. The cooperative Firefight mode adds wave-survival battles against the Covenant with friends.
