Rockstar's neo-noir open world crime thriller was famous for its facial animations and distinctive 40's setting. Acclaimed for its storytelling, the game was a great release, if a bit overshadowed by Red Dead Redemption before it. Running around the city of Los Angeles as the troubled Cole Phelps was a lot of fun. However, we can't help but wish we had the chance to play out our buddy-cop fantasies with a friend. Just imagine being able to play out the good cop, bad cop routine on a tight-lipped felon. Or chasing down an escaped criminal while a friend drives ahead to create a blockade. It's enough to make us wonder why the buddy-cop genre isn't one that's taken off in the video game world yet.
