Chase HQ

Can anyone remember the similar two player game where one person drove and had a mounted gun too, and the second player just had a gun?

Can't remember for the life of me what it was called - google doesnt help.

What ever happened to Ocean, did they get bought by EA? Another vote for the first one though, once they added the shooting out of the car it wasn't as fun.
