Co-Op Play Mode

Hello:

I would like to play remote games with my son.

We are in 2 different states (California & Michigan, FYI).

I was told by 2 different Game Stop outlets that this was possible.

I purchased a 2nd Xbox 360 system, flat TV, and a "CO OP" game for both Xboxes.

When I had trouble, I was told by Xbox to "just press the start button" on the 2nd controller.

(Kind of insulting to think that that was my question).

I said "We are in different states, and not in the same room".

Then the answer changed into "Xbox cannot do that"

So I am checking whether this answer is true (or not).

pretty sure co op only works on one console with 2 controllers if a game has online play multiplayer then you can use 2 consoles but each has to have a live gold account to do so.

The GameStop outlets were correct, in theory. But not all games support online play. You will need to have a game that supports online play over Xbox Live (this is usually indicated on the games packaging).

Could you kindly tell us what game you bought exactly? That way we can find out if the game supports co-op through online Xbox Live, or only local "couch"-multiplayer.

Well, as I said above, the Xbox System CAN do that, but it depends if the game supports it. Also make sure your son also has a paid gold membership (from your Gamertag being written in a goldish color, you are already a Gold member). If you look at dave
mc fly's gametag above my post, you'll see it being grey, which means it's a free silver member and can't do online multiplayer.

To try out a game that definitely supports online co op and competitive play over Xbox Live that is also free to download is "Harms Way". It's a
car race game where you can race against each other, or team up with one driving the car, and the other hopping into stationary turrets around the track to fire on opponents to distract them.

When shopping for boxed games, make sure on the back of the box it reads "online multiplayer X-Y players" (with X-Y being a certain number of supported players, e.g. 2-8 meaning between 2 and 8 players can play online against each other).

 

Marvel Super Heroes.

The packaging says:

1-2 players

co-op 2

Xbox Live

Game Content download.

I have Xbox live on my CA setup, and have had XBL in Michigan before.

I will try Harm's Way later tonight - thanks for the tip.

Sorry to necro, but can you play co-op on a demo if someone has a tablet?

 

instead of necro please create your own thread next time

games provide different co-op Options, some require 2 actual profiles, some allow guest Login, but in 100% i know you Need to have 2 Controllers for your xbox
