The Co-Opticast
01/26/2010
Prepare yourself for a jam packed episode of goodness has Nick and Mike discuss the latest co-op news stories. Short on time? Well so are we - that's why we've compressed everything into a lovable, cuddable, and edible 30 minute package.
We chat about Division 9, Crackdown 2, Borderlands DLC, and reminisce about auto aim shooters of the past. Episode 36 is GO!

It's an Army of Three this week as Jason "OrigamiPanther" Love joins Nick and Mike in another exciting episode. Bayonetta and Darksiders are discussed, we craft some theories about Microsoft's Game Room, and have a lengthy chat about Army of Two: The 40th Day which dovetails nicely into a discussion about rewarding players in a multiplayer setting. All this and more can be yours by clicking the link below!
*Note: Some technical difficulties marred this episode, sorry about the audio quality!

So much goodness is jammed packed into this episode, it's hard to contain it all in a tiny little MP3 file.
Philip Kollar of Game Informer magazine joins Nick and Mike as they discuss what they've been playing, the latest co-op news, and then preview the co-op games of 2010.
It's like being pooped out into a bottomless pit, and you get to listen to the sweetest voices sing to you all the way down for all eternity. And by eternity I mean 1 hour and 34 minutes.

This week, our heroic podcast crew tackles the most controversial topic on any gaming site: The Game of the Year Awards! Luckily for us, we escape with only a few scratches, as the Community picks are announced as well. Even our old pal 50 Cent manages to come away with one of our coveted awards! With a load of new game announcements from the VGAs and a long digression of Assassin's Creed 2, you can expect a meaty podcast of epic proportions.
*NOTE* The Game of the Year content is a podcast exclusive until the evening of 12/16/2009

It's another exciting episode of the Co-Opticast! We're rapidly approaching 2010 as Nick and Mike take a quick breath to look at 2009 spouting all the wonderful titles they've been playing.
News is of course on the agenda, with a few items that may pique your interest.
Finally they discuss the eternal question in co-op - Do more players make a better experience?
Find out all this and more as Mike and Nick save Christmas during Episode 32 of the Co-Opticast.
11/17/2009
Our list of games played reads like the top 10 games of the year. Mike and Nick are dominated by titles like Modern Warfare 2, Halo 3: ODST, Dragon Age Origins, and more.
Really, it's quite amazing we had time to do a podcast about games. But we did, and we bring you plenty of co-op news, commentary and a review of Modern Warfare 2.

The big 30 for the Co-Opticast, and what do we have? A jam packed 50 minute episode with dozens of co-op news stories, a Borderlands review, and lots of other goodies that'll tickle that special spot.
In fact, by my count we cover over 25 different games in this episode. Sit down, buckle up, and get ready to be Co-Opticasted.

In this week's installment of The Co-Opticast, we run a fine-tooth comb over the latest and greatest co-op news, and pass the savings on to you. Listen as Mike and Nick discuss what games we prefer to play online or splitscreen, tell Infinity Ward to put up or shut up when it comes to smack-talking Treyarch's co-op modes and a surprising number of playable characters in a game we previously hadn't covered are revealed, all in a nice, tight 29-minute package.
10/06/2009
Nick and Mike are back for another solid episode of the Co-Opticast. There's plenty of controversial news on the table to chat about, including digital distribution and Activision's corporate policies.
We look at a packed fall release schedule, talk about aggressive gaming, and the lack thereof in co-op.
All this and more can be yours if the price is right. Don't worry, it's still free to download.

In this episode, the post-PAX malaise has lifted and we resume your regularly-scheduled podcast. Mike and Nick explore this week's news, call out net-based game streaming services, spout random game knowledge and yes, Nick got to play ODST. With proper restraint, his 5-minute review lasted a mere nine minutes! All this and more await you when you click the fabled "Listen Now" link!
