Spyborgs may look slick and modern, but beneath all the gloss, it is a very old school brawler. For gamers who enjoy beat em ups, Spyborgs is a decent experience, combining modern graphics and control schemes with older, familiar gameplay elements.

We've all been so busy actually PLAYING the myriad of releases this Fall, including some awesome co-op ones, that we didn't have time to write about all the other games out there. We've combined our Beyond Co-Op reviews for October and November into a mega issue.

How about Brutal Legend, Forza 3, Torchlight, Half-Minute Hero and more?  

In a fall crowded by rock music games, DJ Hero manages to stand out by focusing on music and mixes for various music tastes. Gone is the plastic guitar and in its place is the turntable. Are you ready to try your hand and spinning records? Ready to grab a guitar and help out?

Tornado Outbreak is a very strange little game. It's priced as a value title, which can often be a bad sign. It turns out that destroying things while controlling a sentient gust of wind is actually quite fun, and even more so when played with a friend in co-op mode.

Sports games are inherently cooperative, providing a focus on teamwork and communication. But it's rare to find games that cater to that strength, instead the focus is on the competitive nature. Today we examine NBA Live 10 from EA Sports and what it offers to co-op NBA basketball fans.

Ginger kids, old people, underpants gnomes and other general threats are invading South Park Colorado. It's up to Kenny, Stan, Kyle, Cartman and other South Park kids to keep the evil at bay with their snowballs, special abilities, and a variety of defensive towers. We gave this game a co-op whirl, curious to see if South Park: Let's Go Tower Defense Play! is worth an 800 purchase, or if it's best left in the snow.

I want you to take a good look at the picture above.  Upon first glance, it looks kinda cute, right?  Shorty, super-deformed versions of classic Marvel heroes are absolutely adorable.  Who can help but smile at the sweet lil' Silver Surfer?  Cap is cute too, and even Wolverine looks positively huggable.  Now, count the number of fingers they have.  WHOA!  They have three fingers and a thumb!  That's a bit disturbing.  This swing of emotion, from the initial "awww how sweet!" to the eventual "Oh gross, that's abominable!" exactly describes the feelings I had while playing Marvel Super Hero Squad.

Last year we applauded Microsoft's entry into the music genre with Lips. Unique LED and motion sensitive microphones, plus a packed song list with plenty of co-op options made for a great party. Lips is back with the first sequel, called Lips #1 Hits. But is it worth your money?

Sol Survivor, the co-op tower defense title from developer Cadenza Interactive, was released over the XBox LIVE Indie Marketplace last month and we’ve been putting it through its paces ever since.  What are the results?  Read on, o ye lovers of co-op gaming, read on.

After what seemed like ages, Borderlands finally hit consoles last week. Promises of four player co-op with millions of weapons filled our heads. We spent the better part of last week in the world of Pandora, and now it's time to weigh in.
