Not sure about you guys but just about 100% of my gaming now and gaming I look forward to all revolves around the co-op experience. I used to really appreciate a solid single player experience but these days I'm finding it hard to get excited about games that offer no co-op.
I was even contemplating building a gaming rig just for SP games thinking maybe it was lack of uber graphics that were getting me less interested but I don't think that's it. I just sold all my 360 games that were collecting dust (huge backlog) and I made like $300. Now that those games are gone I simply don't miss them.....like at all.
I play co-op with my brother and 2 cousins and we have a blast. Currently we are all playing Borderlands (this is my 2nd playthrough) and we have pretty large list of co-op games to buy and look forward to:
Gear of War Judgement
Aliens CM
Borderlands 2
Dead Island
Dead Island Riptide
Portal 2 (just 2 of us)
Lost Planet 2
Dead Space 3 (just 2 of us)
Halo 4 Spartan Ops
And others I'm not remembering right now. We always have a really great time and the experience shared with others is simply better than SP. I realize there will always be an audience for SP games and I used to be a HUGE supporter of SP games and making sure they were appreciated and would point out co-op or MP isn't always needed......but I don't think I'm like that anymore.
It seems now if a game doesn't have co-op it kinda falls off my radar.

Anybody else finding themselves transitioning to co-op gaming?
