Hey so me and two friends want to play through an rpg from start to finish and we would like an rpg that takes co-ordination as opposed to any one of us being able to solo it despite 3 people being in the game.
Consoles we have access to 3 of: Xbox 360 Playstation 2 N64 Computer
Games that you should not say as we've already overplayed them: Diablo 2 World of Warcraft Borderlands Diablo Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 Champions of Norrath 1 and 2 All of the Guantlet games.
Thanks in advance for any help.
We also like hack and slash games.

Castle Crashers on the 360 (Arcade 1200 MS Points)
|
You might try the Icewind Dale's series since you enjoyed Baldur's Gate.

Oh totally forgot about that, we also beat that multiple times and each have a level 100 >_>

Tales of Symphonia? (haven't actually played it myself, but seen other people have fun with it)
|
Neverwinter Nights (1 and 2) both have a pretty good co-op (and if necessary, pvp) elements in their multiplayer servers.

I used to play traditional single player RPGs with friends and we would just swap turns and talk over what decisions we would make after every boss or something along those lines (This was a BLAST with Chrono Trigger).
But if you're talking about games that you all play at the same time, you kinda shot the list of the most popular and well known ones. MMOs obviously come to mind, but that's a gigantic time sink that I don't think you should drag your friends into if they're not willing. Eh.... Neverwinter Nights?

Hah we're not worried about games being a waste of time, as I said we all have beat castle crashers and leveled to 100, we all have 80s in WoW and have cleared 9/12 ICC25 HMs and we all beat all the games on my list.

there's also titan quest, which is very diablo like. Haven't played it myself yet. Also, dungeon siege can be played multiplayer coop, i didn't like it very much though.
In case medieval rts is also an option - there are more and more campaign maps of warcraft 3 being adapted to be suitable for 2player coop. Meaning you can play the warcraft 3 campaign together with your friend. Check out hiveworkshop for those. However, its not that much rpg then.
Or maybe try some rpg custom maps for warcraft 3, there are some out there. There is for instance a number of diablo3 custom maps for wc3, the creator did a really good job recreating the landscapes and skills that were shown in the diablo3 presentation videos. and there are of course completely custom rpg maps in their own universes, not related to warcraft lore or anything else. again, hiveworkshop has a ton of maps and you can find several of those on that site.
/edit: Also, ofc, check out hellgate london, which is kind of a first person shooter diablo thingy. The single player is not that interesting (since its singleplayer) but works easily, the multiplayer is limited to korean servers for the time being, so you have to go to quite some trouble to be able to play it on there. There's a ton of mob slauthering and boss grinding, just like d2 ;P

Titan Quest. The gameplay is a bit repetitive, but the art is amazing.
|
|
Secret of Mana
Edit: Fuck you poster above me lol
|
I don't know if you'd have access but Pocky and Rocky is good.
|
Torchlight and Hellgate: London comes to mind. Will edit my post once I have some more time to think.
|
Uhm. Try Tales of Symphonia for PS2 great game. Only thing is that when exploring player 1 has to do it, only co-op is fighting, which is really most of the game.

There are rumors of Hellgate: London coming back up due to them attaining the European and American distribution rights roughly a year ago. Last I heard was some big announcement at the beginning of the year. Also, they are supposedly developing a sequel.
Again, heard about it in big news announcements at the end of 2009 and start of 2010. Haven't heard much about it since, but definitely something to look for.
And don't forget Torchlight 2 will apparently have multiplayer.
I second Neverwinter Nights 1 and 2, and Sacred 2.
