Every posse needs a plan in the Wild West, and the world of Red Dead Redemption is no different. With new, free Co-op DLC, it's best you play it just right to get the best possible bang for your (free) buck. Rockstar Games wants to help you get the most out of your Red Dead Redemption co-op experience, and they've offered this handy guide to get you and your posse through the storm.
Like its predecessor, Left 4 Dead 2's versus mode is something of a anomaly. It exists in a central space that screams "co-op" while it gains the attention of even the most hardcore competitive gamers. Because of its uniqueness, it's not much of a stretch to expect to see many areas in need of improvement.
The big innovation in this fall's Guitar Hero entry, subtitled Warriors of Rock, might just be Quest Mode. This story-based progression through the catalog of tunes looks to spice up the experience a bit by incorporating more video game standards like character abilities and boss fights. (Let's hope they are better done than the terrible boss battles of Guitar Hero III.) We've got a video explaining what makes Quest Mode unique, as well as a fresh gallery full of screenshots. There's no keytar to be found anywhere, but it does look like it could be a whole lotta fun.
It's rare that a PC game dominates the weekend gaming plans for the Co-Opticrew, but that seems to be the case with Blizzard's StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty. If all goes according to plan we'll have a co-op review of that one early next week. Don't worry, not everyone's console will be collecting dust. Transformers and Crackdown 2 both need some TLC!
Sure he may not be in peak physical, or mental, condition, but Lynch is one of the more interesting character to come around the world of videogames in sometime. The feedback from the community echoed that statement, IO Interactive listened, and decided to focus on him for Kane and Lynch 2: Dog Days.
We've all made mistakes and most of the time, we feel better about owning up to them. Valve recently had a little slip up when their anti-cheat software automagically banned 12,000 Modern Warfare 2 players from the PC version of the game. Turns out though, they weren't cheating at all.

It’s about time Earthworm Jim HD makes its way over to the Playstation Network. In his high-def form, Earthworm Jim has been on the Xbox LIVE Arcade for, well, quite some time. European PSN users can get their Jim on at any time now, and within the week U.S. PSN will also have their hands on that super suit, with some pretty interesting co-op I might add.
The anticipation leading up to Monday Night Combat’s August 11th release is getting to be too much. Another character has been revealed after the probably unstable Sniper's unmasking, and she’s likely to put the rest of them to sleep. She’s silent, deadly, quick, and a surgeon with her work - the Assassin joins the ranks of quirky characters in the Monday Night Combat lineup. Better get to her before she gets to you or it's gonna be messy.
Some gamers like it hot, and StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty delivers on that request. Well, okay, maybe you don’t actually want your computer to overheat, and possibly melt while you’re watching those interactive menus with the guys standing around, and the juke box, and - whatever else is in the between-missions screen in the campaign.
Bungie has just released a brand new trailer for Halo Reach to amp you up even further, as if you need further fuel. As the prequel to the Halo trilogy, Reach tells the story of humanities efforts to save the planet Reach from a Covenant invasion force. The trailer, called The Battle Begins, gives you a glimpse as to just what our group of Spartans are up against.
That tiny screen above is what you'll be looking at if you decide to pick up Call of Duty: Black Ops for the Nintendo DS. Of course, if you have the DSi XL it'll be much bigger. That being said, Activision has announced a DS port of Black Ops which includes missions inspired by its big brother on the console. You'll even be able to take control of vehicles like jets and helicopters.
