Microbot Co-Op Review

The twin-stick shooter is becoming ubiquitous on XBLA and PSN. It takes quite a bit for a game to stand out from the rest of the dual-analog pack. Microbot does just that with a unique setting: inside a human body. But is there more to it than just the novel environment?

Microbot Cleaning The Insides of a PS3 Near You Tomorrow

Ok, so maybe the title of this news post was a bit gross, but hey, that's what Microbot is all about isn't it?  The twin stick shooter set inside the human body has been available on Xbox Live Arcade for a few weeks, and now Playstation 3 owners can get in on the action.  For a mere $10, fans of Sony's console can help fight off the rogue nanobots infecting humans, too.  The title has been fairly well reviewed, and we hope to have some playtime with it and a co-op review for you soon!  In the meantime, don't forget to wash those hands and use lots of antibacterial sanitizer; you never know when the flu or a pack of killer nanobots might be lurking under your fingernails.

Microbot Takes You On A Fantastic Voyage Through Inner Space

The twin stick shooter is enjoying quite a bit of popularity these days, and a new title in the genre has to do something special to really stand out among the field.  MicroBot's innovation is the setting: the inside of a human body.  Two players can team up in their microscopic ships to eradicate diseased cells that have merged with rogue nanobots.  A dynamic level generator will ensure that, as in real life, no two human bodies are alike, and the MicroBots are upgradable, as well.  Most intriguing is the "innovative co-op editor" that allows partners to work together to create the ultimate MicroBot.
