co op shmups

Good luck with that because if anything, there are none with online co-op capabilities that I know of on PC.

Very niche genre anyway and much more successful on console where they do have online play.
 
Tbh, the insane reactions required at harder levels of games like Jamestown means that online lag would make it impossible - the whole genre doesn't really lend itself to latencies!
 
Yep if it's a bullethell type game, you can ever forget about online.

Ikaruga on XBLA is probably the best example you can get. It's lag is tolerable but still incredibly annoying.
 
Yeah theres a few co-op games of that type around, me and snowdog played one once and it was fun, i forgot the name of it tho and wasnt very modern looking i.e fancy gfx but it was 2 player scroll em ups. Im sure steam has a bunch on there that is 2 player as well.

If it requires lan then just get hamachi or somit.

This may be the one i played with him, Demonstar.
