Narco Terror Announcement Trailer

NEWS 8:27 PM on 5/20/2013 by Andrew Gaskill

Today we bring you a new trailer for Narco Terror, a recently announced game from Deep Silver and Rubicon Organization. According to the press release, Narco Terror is "a sophisticated, action-packed twin-stick shooter that thematically harkens back to classic action movies from the 80’s and offers great diversity with several arcade gameplay sequences."

Fuse Launch Trailer and Co-Op Demo Impressions

NEWS 1:35 PM on 5/17/2013 by Andrew Gaskill

The Fuse "launch" trailer is now live. The game doesn't come out for like a week and a half so that's... weird. Why do I have the feeling there's going to be another trailer? The video offers a sliver of back story and features the prerequisite cool weapon footage and an abundance of explosions, faceless bad guys, and exploding faceless bad guys. I know, I know, it's still not Overstrike, but it looks like it has potential to be a pretty decent squad-based shooter.

TMNT: Out of the Shadows Trailer Shows Off Raphael Gameplay

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.

Thunder Wolves Rolls Onto Steam Tomorrow

NEWS 1:30 PM on 5/14/2013 by Andrew Gaskill

Thunder Wolves is coming to Steam in a few short hours. This action/shooter will allow you and a co-op partner to play the roles of pilot and gunner in a variety of helicopters. We have a new gameplay trailer submitted for your approval. I have to say, I'm a little confused as to what sort of tone the developers, Most Wanted Entertainment, are going for.

Borderlands 2: Krieg the Psycho Hands-On Impressions

NEWS 9:00 AM on 5/14/2013 by Andrew Gaskill

Oh boy, more Borderlands 2 content! Just what I need, another reason to add to the 212 hours I've spent on Pandora - and that's NOT counting the first Borderlands. Okay, Gearbox, let's see if your hellborn, bloodlusting, maniac can tempt me back to the land of Bandits and Bullymongs. It's time to take Kreig the Psycho for a thrill kill joyride.

Splinter Cell: Blacklist Cooperative Play Explored

NEWS 10:45 PM on 5/13/2013 by D.J. Waaland

The Splinter Cell franchise has always had a very unique and engaging legacy of cooperative gameplay. The different co-op modes have spanned from tandem stealth-play missions to special modes involving spies and hunters. An inside look at the cooperative mechanics of Splinter Cell: Blacklist has surfaced on Joystiq. In it, they share some of their impressions on the ways that co-op works in the latest Splinter Cell game.

New Screenshots of 'Tiny Tina's Assault On Dragon's Keep' DLC Emerge from Gearbox

NEWS 4:44 PM on 5/13/2013 by Christopher Metz

The final Borderlands 2 DLC will be here very soon, which is sort of a sad thing to hear for us Co-Optimus folk. We’re excited to see that Gearbox has revealed a very small taste of what is to come out of “Tiny Tina’s Assault On Dragon Keep” coming later in June.

Fuse Demo Out This Week

NEWS 8:08 PM on 5/6/2013 by Andrew Gaskill

This week there's a whole lotta nothing going on. Monaco might be out on Friday, but I'll believe it when I see it. The Co-Optimus Release Calendar is woefully barren. I even checked on the status of Crimson Dragon and Blood Knights. Nah, I'm kidding. I doubt those games are ever coming out. The only new cooperative experience that will sate our need for digitized human companionship is a demo for Fuse, Insomniac's third person, class-based, super soldier shooter.

Avalanche Software Explains Their Inspirations for Infinity's Toy Box Mode

NEWS 5:33 PM on 5/6/2013 by Christopher Metz

Disney Infinity’s Toy Box mode is looking great so far, and should be a solid contender to the Skylanders franchise. As Avalanche Software explained in one of their behind-the-scenes video series, “Creating Infinity”, they were highly inspired to make Toy Box Mode from the Toy Story 3 movie and video game.

Ludum Dare Competition Produces Co-Op Survival Game Myrne 6312

NEWS 9:00 AM on 5/3/2013 by John Bardinelli

The thrice-yearly Ludum Dare competition recently wrapped up its 26th round of lightning-speed game development challenges, receiving over 2,300 submissions from game creators the world over. Participants are allotted a scant 48 hours to make a game from start to finish, each one working from a central theme. This time around that theme was "minimalism", teaching us all a lesson about doing a lot using very little. Or something like that.

New Fuse Trailer Offers a Villain's Perspective, Insomniac's CEO Offers Insight on Co-Op

NEWS 3:00 PM on 5/1/2013 by Andrew Gaskill

The latest trailer for Insomniac's cooperative shooter, Fuse, allows us to see things from the Raven leaders' point of view. They're simple people, really.-simple people running a technologically advanced paramilitary organization bent on global domination. The leaders of this force are trying to capture the Fuse substance to reshape the world. Of course, their vision of this new world is one of profiteering, toppled governments, terror, and supplication.

NEWS 6:54 AM on 5/1/2013 by Sam Tyler

Seen Iron Man 3 already and can't wait until 2015 for Avengers 2?  Well fear not web heads as LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is coming later this year.  Not only can you create Avengers escapades, but the rest of the Marvel Universe will be on show, from Wolverine to Deadpool.  Some of the available characters are in this new teaser trailer for the game, but as Iron Man suggests, they are going to need a few more heroes to help with this colossal problem.

Star Trek Co-Op Review

Review 12:00 PM on 4/30/2013 by Andrew Gaskill

Let me save you some time. This is a bad game. I played through the whole thing, and it felt like work -no, not even work. Worse. It was like an awkward obligation you have to fulfill for an ex in front of her family. As if you promised to help her move, then dumped her. You still help her move, because you feel bad. Now you have to talk to her dad while you help him carry a lust-battered mattress up three flights of stairs. This is not how you want to spend your free time.

Star Trek Launch Trailer

NEWS 11:06 AM on 4/24/2013 by Andrew Gaskill

The new Star Trek game hit store shelves yesterday. Kirk and Spock, along with the rest of the crew of the Enterprise, will find themselves at odds with the Gorn, a race of rather awesome-looking humanoid lizards. This new trailer is full of action and sweet sound effects from the rebooted franchise. It features all the assorted pings and pews of a Star Trek space battle.
