A fistful of new images from Narco Terror just arrived via an unmarked box thrown out the window of a black sedan. Deep Silver and Rubicon Orgnization's upcoming twin stick shooter is all about guns, drug cartels, kidnappings, explosions, and cheesy 80s action tropes. In short: blinding amounts of adrenaline and fun. And the new screenshots aren't afraid to show it.

I spent a few minutes at the controls of Armored Core: Verdict Day. I didn't really take the time to drink it all in. Not much has changed as far as core gameplay is concerned. So if you enjoyed the mech combat from ACV you'll find yourself right at home behind the twin sticks. Despite the similarities to the title Armored Core V, this game will be a full sequel, including a new story, characters, and persistent world.  There will still be plenty of content for single, co-op, and versus players. 

The Command and Conquer series is one of the oldest RTS franchises available to date. The series has had its ups and downs, spin-offs and experiments; but perhaps none has been as bold as we're going to see with a Free-To-Play title created by developer Victory. We went hands on with the game's co-op mode at E3 2013 and it felt anything but "free."

Company of Heroes 2 is in open beta right now until June 18th. While you won't be able to play any of the game's Theater of War scenario mode, you will be able to play some comp stomp co-op with a friend. Locke and I sat down with a refined version of the beta exclusive to E3 and took it took it to the computer before chatting with the game's lead artist.

While the clips we saw of Ryse: Son of Rome showcased big open warfare on the ancient battlefield, a press release for the game has told us about another kind of battle that'll take place in the game - a cooperative battle.

How to Survive is an interesting little downloadable game. A true survival horror title, players will not only battle the zombie scourge, they'll also have to contend with  hunger, thirst, and sleep deprivation. Players will find themselves stranded on an island with little more than the restless dead and the remnants of a survival book for company.  Luckily the game supports two player local or online co-op, so you can share in the apocalyptic misery with a friend.

I can't stand aliens with their advanced technology, big eyes and penchant for probing.  They send me into an Alien Pique, an Alien Temper, even an Alien Rage.  Thankfully, I will be able to sate my green blood lust in the 2 player co-op shooter Alien Rage.  The new trailer shows off over 3 minutes of in game footage.

The Stronghold series has been around now on PCs for over 15 years, with the RTS garnering millions of sales over its lifetime. Honestly, it's surprising there aren't more games out there that are similar. While the series started out set in medieval England, the Crusader branch took things to the deserts of the Middle East. Now that series is getting a new game on a brand new 3D engine and being self published by Firefly Studios. In an AirStream trailer across from the LA convention center we went eyes on with the new game.

Stronghold Crusader 2 is still early in development but it's already shaping up to have many of the core gameplay elements that made the original so popular. While the game will have a campaign, which will serve as both a tutorial and a series of challenges, the meat and potatoes of Stronghold is the game's skirmish mode. It's here that Firefly has put a lot of attention and added the ability to co-op with a friend.

Some of you may be aware that a film called R.I.P.D. is out in cinemas this summer, whilst others may be aware of movie tie in games.  Slam these two concepts together and what do you get?  The 2 player online co-op R.I.P.D. The Game coming to XBLA, PSN and PC on July 16th.

Portal 2’s co-op mode has a brand new DLC campaign that immerses players in the Portal universe more so than any other time before it. Using the PlayStation Move as the controller, we can now control the portal gun in a whole new way. The PlayStation Blog even stated it to be one of the best games to use the PlayStation Move peripheral to date (seal of approval included).

Saints Row IV has a new trailer out, and while it's still looks ri-goddamn-diculous, it's kind of tame when compared to previous videos. This one is going for a more dramatic feel. Well, not really. They just played some dramatic music over insane gameplay footage while re-introducing some new and familiar faces.

Many of us have been waiting very patiently for Company of Heroes 2. The original Company of Heroes was a smashing success, and a very well received military RTS. Well, good news to those of us who want to get a leg up on the competition. Relic has sent Company of Heroes 2 into the open beta phase in order to get ready for the imminent release date of June 25th. The beta will last until June 18th, and it is available to all Steam members. To find it, simply take a look at your game library, where it should appear to download.

The battle of special editions is over. Saints Row IV may have just won - beating all past and future special editions available. The $99 Special Edition for the game is dubbed the "Super Dangerous Wub Wub Edition" - and for good reason. 

Everyone knows by now that Saints Row: The Third totally changed the atmosphere of the franchise on so many levels, and it’s continuing this trend into the next game of Saints Row 4. For those of you that pre-order the game and grab the special “Commander in Chief Edition”, you will be getting some extra outrageous, but totally patriotic DLC items to continue the ridiculousness.

The new IP from City Interactive has undergone a name change from Alien Fear to Alien Rage. Although there is no known reason for the name change, we can only assume that they went down the path of the dark side with fear leading to anger, and then it spiraled out of control.
