Great hosts and discussions

I’m a longtime listener of Co-Op Mode Reviews and love hearing Mike, Ben, Chris and Josh’s insights into the world of video games. I like how the games they review vary from new releases to older ones and big games to smaller ones. Their discussions have inspired me to both revisit games and give ones that I haven’t played yet a shot. If you’re passionate about video games, this show is for you.
