I'll be honest, after watching the gameplay footage from the San Diego Comic-Con, I wasn't so sure about Game #3.  It appeared to be geared more towards a versus style of play rather than co-op.  The game has a new trailer though, one that shows a new gameplay mode, and one that restores faith that the game will still have some sort of co-op.

The mode on display is called the Soul Mode.  In this mode you'll platform around a level and try to steal and hold the souls of your opponents.  Players can team up against the AI with up to four separate teams on a map.  The video even goes in depth with describing some of the co-op strategies of the game mode.

Over 1 Million Served!

One of our favorite old school cool co-op titles is Castle Crashers.  Apparently, we aren't the only ones who enjoy the game, either, according to the Behemoth development blog.  Just two days ago, on June 22, the one millionth player was listed on the Castle Crashers leaderboard.  This achievement makes Castle Crashers the fastest growing title ever released on Xbox Live Arcade.  It's good to see that such an honor belongs to a very strong co-op title!

Alien Hominid was the first title from one of our favorite developers, Behemoth. Available on Xbox Live Arcade in stunning high definition, Alien Hominid HD is quite an experience. We'll give you the scoop on the old school co-op in our review!

As promised, the Behemoth has delivered a trailer for their 3rd game.  It is perhaps the most dramatic, musical and emotional trailer for a video game you'll ever see - and you won't have a friggin clue what the heck is going on.

The good news is the game, still very very early in development, looks extremely co-op-able.  There's sections where players help lift each other up, similar to what players do in Army of Two.  We also see plenty of gameplay bits with multiple players fighting baddies on the screen at once, and it appears there's some sort of puzzle element to the game.

Of course Game #3 features the same iconic art style of Dan Paladin and the trailer shows this well, including some pretty interesting cut scenes.
