I've only casually played the past Ratchet and Clank games, so I'm a person coming into Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One with an almost clean slate. To be honest, even after it was announced to have a four player co-op mode, I never planned on picking up the game. Once the beta was released I was more than pleasantly surprised at what made up the nuts and bolts of this Ratchet and Clank title.
While the 3DS has already gotten a dedicated cooperative Resident Evil game, the next Resident Evil game - despite being single player focused - will also offer a co-op mode. Resident Evil: Revelations will have a cooperative mode for two players called Raid. On the surface it seems very similar to the co-op found in the Mercenaries mode in previous RE titles, though there's a few unique twists.
I love me some T-Hunt. This is the Rainbow Six game mode that allows 4 players to co-op together and take on a map of AI enemies. The next game in the series has already been announced, but currently remains nameless. This is about to change as recent domain names suggest Rainbow Six: Patriots will be its moniker.
Now that Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City has a solid release date, we can start wishing for a beta. Good news! There's going to be a public beta this winter. That was easy. Since the game is due out in a few months, we should expect the beta sometime soon. RE: ORC Producer Mike Jones says we can expect a beta "early next year." If this game is as good as I remember, we could be in for a real treat. Here's a quick synopsis: Four players team up as the members of an evil Umbrella hit team, determined to take out any survivors of the Raccoon City disaster. Hell yeah.
It's the fall gaming season and everygame is vying for your hard earned dollar. With so many games to choose from, already at the exhorberent price of $59.99, why would you drop $99, $129 or even $150 on a Collector's or Special Editions of a game? Because it's shiny, that's why. Oh - did we mention we're giving a collector's edition away?
It was only a week ago today that we told you more news would be coming about a brand new MechWarrior title. Now that "soon" has arrived, I've been tasked with the bearer of bad news. While we did get the information promised about the game, now called MechWarrior Online, we've learned that the original concept for the MechWarrior game has been scrapped in favor of a Free 2 Play PC exclusive game with micro transactions.
Are you a parent? Have you checked out Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster for the Xbox 360 Kinect? You haven't? Why don't you love your kids? What did they ever do to you? Okay, I know they feed on all of your hopes a dreams, and they have absolutely crushed any will you may have had to improve yourself through diet and exercise, but this is a really cute game. So cute, we gave it a 4.5 out of 5 in our Co-Op Review. Check out some of the concept art in the attached gallery. Kids love this stuff! As an added bonus, if you play this game with your kids, you'll get a little workout yourself. If you're as big a fan of bacon as I am, it will be outright rigorous!
It's been almost two months since WH40K: Space Marine has been released into the wild. The much anticipated (at least by 40k fans) "Exterminatus" co-op mode released on the PlayStation 3 and PC last week, and is now live on the Xbox 360. The co-op mode will take a meager 337 MB of hard drive space, so get to downloading! I also noticed that there are slots for four more DLC packages, which is very interesting, given that some honchos at THQ seem less than impressed with the title's performance.
EA has just released a brand new trailer for Syndicate, the upcoming shooter based on the classic 1993 game. While we went hands on with the single player portion and were teased with the details of co-op, we didn't get a chance to see the online four player co-op in action...until now.
The Gears of War 3 Horde Command Pack, the first piece of DLC set for release for the co-op game, has been delayed at the last minute due to technical glitch according to the game's community manager raczilla. The content, which is priced at 800 , was set to go live today.
Joining a band, becoming a member of the Jamaican Bobsleigh Team, Performing the Y.M.C.A., and surviving the zombie hordes in Left 4 Dead: these are just some of the ways to look super awesome as a foursome. As of 8th November, we can add playing Rabbids: Alive and Kicking on 360 Kinect to this list. A new trailer highlights some of the 4 player minigames on offer and they look too cool for school (Co-Optimus does not endorse skipping classes - stay in school kids).
Battlefield 3 is out! I bet you didn't know that. You did? Oh, well did you want a copy for your PlayStation 3? Good - because we're giving one of those away. Perhaps you read our co-op review or our co-op FAQ on the game and now it's all you can think about. You dream of piloting an attack helicopter with your best friend. You want to complete sniper missions with grandma. And the only way you'll get through a work day is by checking Battlelog every 15 minutes to see how your platoon's K/D ratio is doing.
