When one plays co-op games, one generally plays in a way that's beneficial to both oneself and one's partner. You watch his back when he's reloading, he revives you when you're down... You look out for eachother. A true sense of camaraderie, and perhaps even brotherhood, can emerge from this style of gaming. Anyone who has experienced it can tell you it's very rewarding.
But what about when you're feeling mean?
We've all done it at some point; don't try to deny it. Maybe your partner was low on health, and you snatched the last health pickup despite having full health yourself. Maybe you decided to take advantage of the fact that all the enemies seemed to be focusing on your partner by hanging back and letting him take the fall. Or maybe you just wanted to see what would happen if you stuck a sticky grenade to the back of your partner's head while he was in the midst of a sniper spree.
This maneuver, my friends, is known as the "punk move." It's unforgivable, it's detrimental to the game, and it makes you look like a douche... But you have to admit, it's fun.
Escapists, let's hear your stories. I know you've got 'em, you're an eclectic bunch.
