If you like you games part trippy and part hallucinogenic; you may already own PixelJunk Eden on PSN. This two player co-op title is now swinging its way from Sony over to Steam. The PC version will include the full PSN experience, but also the additional Encore content pack. The game will cost $9.99 and does not require you to don a Grimp suit (the name of the in-game heroes).
Dragons are featured in dozens, if not hundreds, of video games. From the earliest Multi user Dungeons to the latest MMOs, and every genre in between, dragons have appeared in all sorts of titles. Today, we'll take a look at five great game series featuring dragons. Each of these games have been quite popular, and of course, each of them include the co-op gameplay that we all enjoy.
Pocketwatch Games has answered our plea for something showing off the latest development of their 4 player co-op heist game. Andy Schatz (developer) and Andy Nguyen (producer) give us a commentated playthrough of one of the later levels from Monaco: What's Yours is Mine and tease us with a video that illustrates how amazing the game is looking.
Everyone's been anticipating Resident Evil: Revelations to release with a hefty $50 price tag (we reported a few months back that due to the 4GB card size over the standard 2GB, Capcom would be upping the price). That's $10 more than the normal price for a 3DS game, which may have bumped down its priority on some of your game lists. Good news, though - Capcom's announced that despite the larger card, RE: Revelations will now be releasing with $40 price tag, just like most other 3DS new releases. That's pretty good news for your wallet (if you're planning on snagging it on release) just a couple weeks before the game comes out.
The staff is still mopping up the back log from 2011's Fall rush of gaming. It's ok, sometimes what needs to be done needs to be done. And with things this spring looking like they are clearing out and moving later and later...well...lets just say we might be able to ease up on the pedal a bit for trying to burn through the backlog.
When we first received word at Co-Optimus HQ that the next Mass Effect game would have co-op, we were thirlled. After all, it's a feature we'd been teased with for the second game, and its cancellation/denial left us... well, let's just say yening for such a possibility to become true. Since the confirmation that Mass Effect 3 would, in fact, support co-op play in a separate adventure where each player could choose, and customize, his or her own character, we've been getting some details here and there about what it will and won't do. However, we have yet to see a lot of it in action... Until now...
"Oh dear Lord Jesus, this ain't happening, man... This can't be happening, man! This isn't happening!"
Ubisoft has announced a PC version of Rayman Origins with a release date of March 29th, 2012. Rayman Origins is an excellent co-op game that we gave a 4.5 out of 5 thanks to a great platforming experience shared by all. The PC version will retain the four player local co-op support, but that's not the best news.
Another quirky platforming game with great artwork has made its way onto the download market, but this time it has co-op throughout. ScaryGirl could be a very pleasant co-op experience, but are its flaws far scarier than first meets the eye?
Earlier today, SEGA uploaded a special cutscene from their newest Third-Person Shooter title, Binary Domain, showcasing an extended dialogue and a few, gruesome twists.
We've got another guest submission from Peter and Ruth for Co-Op Couples this month. There are plenty of great co-op games out there, but sometimes, the well goes dry, and you run out of money for all the latest, shiniest titles. What's a co-op loving couple to do? Get creative and share the experience any way they can, of course!
A new release of screen shots from Konami's NeverDead makes us want to try ripping off our body parts off in pure happiness.
