A mate pops round pretty regularly, he's not got a console himself or anything, we usually have a round or two of golf on The Golf Club and then play some Trials, a bit of Rocket League, Sports Friends but we're getting bored of all those. Anyone got any recommendations for fun multiplayer games that aren't too much of a handful controls-wise?

Laura Croft (temple of Osaris) is one of the last ones I played couch co-op on - i'm sure there is a site somewhere which covers it.

Note that the previous Lara Croft game, Guardian of Light, is a much better game so if you can play that one instead then I'd recommend it.

Also, the co op levels of Portal 2 are good fun.

Ninhogg. It's great.

Might not have spelt it properly though.

Cheers, we'll check some of these out. Magicka 2 I think I already own and Nidhogg looks brilliant.

Magicka 2 is epic fun. Shoot a life spell at a death spell for EPIC FEEDBACK DEATH

Much more polished than the original, but I prefered the explodey chaos in the first that git somewhat neutered.
(Crossing beams would cause instant effects, but more importantly, arse mines were explodey catapulty death , as compared to the mot overly effective arse cloud in magicka 2. Oh, and the CTD spell.)

Spend ages trying to cross a life beam with a death beam then accidentally cross them way too close to one of you. Kaboom!
