This is a good question! It's different because if you pass quantum entangled information to the other person, you will be able to cooperate more effectively with them on certain games using that information. It's explained very well in the second paragraph of this article: http://www.scottaaronson.com/blog/?p=2464 .

In a simplified way, this is what Bell's theorem tells you: That quantum informations behaves fundamentally different than "precalculated" random information.

I'm missing the part where it is explained how they cooperate better in the 3rd and 4th paragraph. Especially since sharing independent bits of equal probability 0 and 1 isn't comparable to sharing entangled qubits (at least it isn't explained how they are equal).
