One of my favorite activities outside of playing video games with friends is cooking meals with my wife. Our kitchen isn't big so there's a little bit of a hectic dance as we move around each other for counter space, but it's always fun. Apparently, the two-man development team over at Ghost Town Games also enjoy cooking cooperatively as their first title, Overcooked, is just that.

If you were to stop me on the streets one day and asked me what is my favorite co-op game of all time, I'd respond "Secret of Mana." I'm a huge fan of RPGs/aRPGs and that title does it so well on top of allowing you to play it with friends. Rex Crowle and Moo Yu, two of the creative minds behind games like Tearaway and Ratchet & Clank, are looking to bring back that type of title with Knights and Bikes.
