NEWS 5:06 PM on 5/14/2013 by Locke Vincent

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows is looking to be totally tubular. The release of their second character trailer has Raphael kicking the shell out of some unlucky Foot Soldiers. The 4 player co-op brawler is resembling more of the TMNT games we were used to back in the 16 bit era, instead of the dark path the franchise has taken in the recent years.

Zeno Clash 2 Co-Op Review

Review 1:20 PM on 5/6/2013 by Locke Vincent

After playing through the original Zeno Clash, I didn’t know what to expect from ACE Team this time around. What do you do after making a first person brawler set in a fantastical world where you sort out differences through a bout of fisticuffs? The answer is simple, continue the adventure and add a co-op partner so you have double the flying fists. Zeno Clash 2 does not diverge from the obscure, relying on those brave gamers who want to try something out of the ordinary.

God Mode Co-Op Review

Review 2:33 PM on 4/26/2013 by Locke Vincent

Get ready to traverse the depths of Hades with four player co-op in God Mode. The fast paced shooter is drizzled in Greco-Roman mythology and makes for a simple, yet beautiful game. You’re not going to be playing God Mode for a long time, but that doesn’t matter because the time you do spend with it will be enjoyable. There is plenty of room in hell for fast-paced action shooters, so if you are looking for some mindless entertainment it's time to turn on God Mode.

Guacamelee! Co-Op Review

Review 11:15 AM on 4/17/2013 by Locke Vincent

In a world filled with retro style releases, Guacamelee! shines above the rest. Even without the references to its predecessors, it stands on its own and Drinkbox should be proud for making such an exceptional game. The stunning art style, intelligent level design, and precise combat all come together as a tight package that allows Guacamelee! to stand as a flagpole title for this generation.

Review 8:00 AM on 2/19/2013 by Locke Vincent

Sometimes in your life, a game comes around that changes your perspective on a genre. Omerta is not the game that is going to change your mind on the gangster simulator. However, it is the only modern gangster simulator that gives you the satisfaction of taking over Atlantic City piece by piece.

Locke was born out of the NES era with a controller in his hands and the cord wrapped around his neck straight out of the womb. Since the age of four he has been collecting games and creating his very own gaming library, boasting over 2000 titles that go all the way back to the Atari 2600.

Locke’s co-op gaming started with Friday night rentals of old school classics like Contra, Double Dragon, and Battletoads where the game would go in, and the weekend would evaporate away. Games like like Toe Jam and Earl 2, Turtles in Time, and Sunset Riders established the foundation for his co-op background and paved the way for future generations of games.

Locke has been reviewing, podcasting, and establishing gaming communities for the past 5 years. He is a self-proclaimed ‘video wizard’ where many of his dreams materialize into crazy web-series and ridiculous antics that can be seen across the Internet superhighway.
