I missed at least one due to being the "second player" and not the host. The game also oddly enough doesn't save my progress on my XB. I do not have a save game so if I wanted to go back and get some of the extra achievements I would have to start the game from scratch and that is not going to happen.

Sadly the co-op experience just doesn't match up with Borderlands/Halo ect. It had to be a tacked on experience. Regardless really it didn't take us that long to beat it I got some decent "G". Sadly the lack of co-op games makes Mercs 2 playable if you have a friend along but I prob wouldn't recommend it to somebody to play solo even though the core experience must be "better" as it had to be aimed around it's solo experience. I'm shocked you didn't say anything about the rifles. All the guns shoot/feel the same other then the explosives but again it's annoying to "call" in a weapons drop to get ammo. After every mission or if you go to your "safe house" they should refill your weapons. Also I would love a 3D game other then Call of Duty where there is a MAN barking orders to a man. The Cortana'esque woman barking orders to the player is over I'm done with it. Thank you for posting I might post another comment later. Hopefully we can get some peeps together for the L4D soon as that HAS to be a better co-op experience. ttyl Flawed masterpiece? Nah I don’t think so.
