Hey, look, Destiny news! Remember Destiny? You know, one of the "winners" of the recycled crap party that was last year's holiday release line up? I sure do. I put over 100 billion hours into that game, and I'd like all but about 20 of them back. Oh, well. Destiny was, and I'm sure will once again be, my digital drug of choice.
Spring is in the air! In a time of changing seasons, that change could also be seen as a reflection of the state of MMOs right now. It seems like developers have stopped chasing the legendary “WoW-killer,” (including Blizzard themselves), and have gone in the direction of making MMOs for a very specific crowd, whether that’s build...
I've got a brand new Farming Simulator 15 trailer and you have a brand new key. Let's put them both together in perfect harmony. Out already on PC, Farm Sim 15 is coming to consoles on May 19th; harvest-tastic.
Hey guys, whatcha playing? Bloodborne still has most of us enthralled here at Co-Optimus (we finished up a co-op focused review and an extensive co-op FAQ this week!), while some of us are celebrating anniversaries and exploring our tabletop options. What say you, staff?
Like the mysterious, twisting forces of the world around us, or like a man walking a tightrope over a vat of expired Spaghetti-O's, Diablo 3 strives for perfect balance. As such, Blizzard has released patch 2.2 to ensure that their game is not only balanced, but also filled with brand new item sets for their players to pilfer from the the remains of formerly living monsters.
Okay, so let me get this straight. You got sent to the principal's office for what now? Fifth Grader Tommy wouldn't let you play kickball, so you removed the earth from right under his feet and sent him tumbling into the dark abyss that remained? And how'd ya do this? You say it's called terraforming, and you learned how to do it from the hot new release, Son of Nor? Kid, I don't even know what terraforming is! I'm just a janitor that happened to wander into the principal's office.
Bloodborne is a game that asks a lot of its players. While not a sequel to any of From Software's other Souls games, it most definitely belongs in the series; and though it has some shortcomings, it might be my favorite one yet....
German indie developer Orlyapps will make its Steam debut later this month with Commander Cool 2, a throwback platformer featuring a local co-op mode.
We recently dug in with the beta version of Killing Floor 2 on Steam immersing ourselves in the six player co-op shooter and all it has to offer. We streamed our exploits with relatively newbie Nick (sorry for the damn keyboard clicking) and veteran Taylor (sorry you can barely hear him).
Games for Windows Live might not be the best service on the planet, but it did provide gamers with opportunities to do some neat co-op stuff. In this case, unfortunately, we learned recently that Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition on Steamworks will not support its split screen co-op mod previously available on Games For Windows Live.
The other night we dove back into Evolve for some good ol' four players versus the AI action. With the recent release of the new DLC we wanted to check out our four new hunters and what they bring to the table.
There's something to be said about the consistency of the name The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III. The other two games were simply The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing and The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing II, so that makes sense. However, I've got to applaud NeocoreGames for not succumbing to the use of the subtitle, mostly because I get confused easily. There's no need to do away with numerals and slap on :Wrath of the The Vampire Puncher or :Dance Away the Darkness. Just go with numbers, people. It's how we count.
