Title: Dracula X Chronicles Co-Op Question
Post by: Claimh Solais on November 06, 2012, 06:22:11 PM: So in Dracula X Chronicles, as most of you probably know, the boss rush mode is co-op. In this co-op, do both players play at the same time, or is it turn-taking like the old-school Mario games? And can both players use the same character, or do they have to be opposite?

I've never actually played the co-op mode over Ad-Hoc or online with Ad-Hoc Party, so I don't know.

Are you maybe thinking of Portrait of Ruin's co-op being limited to on-line?

No. As PFG9000 pointed out, DXC's Boss Rush mode is co-op. And as I can see, no one else has tried it. XD Dang it.

Though I would also like to know about PoR's co-op, since I haven't played it either.

Meh. That sounds disappointing. I've been heavily into co-op gaming, and knowing there are a few CV games with co-op in them, I felt a bit excited. But Judgment's Versus Mode only lasts so long, and Harmony of Despair's novelty died out after a while. I was hoping DXC or PoR would be something more.
