Here is our playthrough from the first four missions of Modern Warfare 3's Spec Ops mode.  Watch as we take you through the following tristes in true co-op fasion: 

Dungeon Hunter, the popular mobile gaming franchise, is getting a third installment.  Appropriately titled Dungeon Hunter 3, the threequel is "Coming Soon," according to the Gameloft Facebook page.  Think of it as a portable version of those hack and slash RPG's we've all come to know and love, and then know some more, then love a little less...

Is it safe to come out now?  I think the holiday rush is officially over.  All the big retail games made it to store shelves before the travesty that was Black Friday.  The end of the year is rapidly approaching, and new releases will be few and far between.  We've got two downloadable co-op titles this week.  Then the backlogging begins!

With the holidays upon us, it's time to buy Xbox 360 hardware and software for yourself, I mean, your loved ones. We've selected some choice gifts for both naughty and nice gamers.

While Gears of War 3 wrapped up the story of Marcus, Dom and crew quite nicely - rumors are already circulating about more games in the series.  The Official Xbox Magazine has the pulse on what seems to be a likely scenario - a new trilogy of Gears of War games set before the current in true Star Wars fashion.  

  Call of Duty Elite has had a bit of a rough start.  The online service exclusive to the Call of Duty franchise was not ready for the absolute influx of people using it, by some estimates, well over 1 million paying subscribers - that's not even counting the free users.  Sadly all of this meant slow to no connections, wai...

Today, we continue our look back at two video game consoles released one decade ago. Last week, we covered Microsoft's first console, the Xbox, and its most notable innovation to co-op, online play through Xbox Live. But the Xbox wasn't the only console to arrive in stores in time for the holiday shopping season in 2001. NIntendo's GameCube hit the shelves on November 18 of that year, and brought some excellent cooperative experiences to gamers that were unavailable on any other system.

If you're a PC gamer (and especially if you're an FPS PC gamer), then you're likely familiar with what I like to call Short-End-Of-The-Stick-Console-Portitis. Okay, so I just made that up now, but the heart of the matter is true. With a huge amount of blockbuster titles being developed on the consoles, there's many a time that the PC port versions are lackluster, or downright close to broken. Sometimes these ports are months or years later. Sometimes they just don't come to PC at all.

Modern Warfare 3 is a game with many different modes, but we do co-op here so we have taken a closer look at the Spec Ops and Survival game modes.  Both modes have you and a partner join forces to take on enemies that come in many different forms. Spec Ops has 16 very different missions and Survival is Modern Warfare's take on the ever popular 'Horde Mode' and both will have you coming back for more. 

Welcome to Beyond Co-Op, a weekly piece that talks about industry stories that may or may not be related to co-op gaming.

Amazon is the place to go for the most co-op game deals this Black Friday.  Everything from Battlefield 3 to the Kinect is on sale for some pretty ridiculous prices.  Sadly it looks like the awesome PS3 bundle sold out rather quickly.  

Amazon is matching Walmart's bundle and price this Black Friday on the PlayStation 3 with some really solid co-op games.  You'll get a 160GB PS3, a controller and the co-op games Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One and Little Big Planet 2 for just $199.99.  Best of all, instead of trying to brave Walmart on the busiest shopping day of the year, you can simply click your mouse and order.
