Xbox system link co-op play question

This is my favorite way to play games: two xboxes system linked, two tvs, two people playing thru a mission together.

I play Ghost Recon and Serious Sam this way, but want to know if any other games give this option.

Halo supports co-op play in split screen only, even though it supports system link for other multiplayer modes. Doh!

The new Rising Sun apparently does the same.

Does Rainbow Six support co-op on 2 TVs? The reviews of this and other games are often not clear on this issue.

While I haven't actually tried the multiplayer options yet, the Rainbow Six manual does mention system link support and co-op mission and "terrorist hunt" modes in separate sections. IGN's review also has the following to say: "You can play either through 14 specific missions with multiple goals or terrorist hunts where it's simply kill everybody that isn't a Rainbow Six operative. But the brilliance of RS3 is that you can do these games solo and co-operatively whether you're talking about a System Link networked game or online via Xbox Live." So I think it's safe to say that it has what you're looking for.

If you're looking for other games... Brute Force is the only other game that supports system link co-op that I can think of at the moment.

[Edit] Ok, I just fired up the xbox and 4 player mission and terrorist hunt modes are options when you create system link games.

It also looks like Counterstrike will support system link co-op.

Thanks oytoy! That's exactly the type of input I was hoping for. I forgot about Brute Force, I have that also.

So the list of co-op system link games appears to be:

Ghost Recon (both)
Brute Force
Serious Sam
Rainbow Six
maybe Counterstrike

Any others?
