    I've been playing a lot of Payday: The Heist with a buddy of mine but was wondering if there were any other games like this. I know about Borderlands, ME3, etc. (which I already have owned for console), but wasn't sure if there were any other teamwork-required co-op games that played out similar to Payday: The Heist. Thanks in advance!

    Can have fun in Saints Row The Third.

    Also you already said Borderlands, but keep in mind Borderlands 2 is coming later this year.

    Battlefield 3 has some great Co-Op missions, unfortunately its way too limited to buy just for that reason (they really need more co-op missions it was my favorite part of the game)

    I want to say Serious Sam HD has a Co-Op campaign as well.

    The RAGE co-op missions are pretty fun as well.

    Don't know if you're into survival horror games, but Dead Island is a really fun co-op game imo, mostly with a melee focus though.

    Another option, with a different gameplay, but very fun coop-only game is Killing Floor (zombie survival).

    Portal 2 Co-Op with freind is legendary, me and my friend had a great time playing it with each other when it was released. LfD 1 and 2 is good fun as well :)
