The GameVideos crew took the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled for a spin through the wayback machine to see how it compared to it's arcade original. The video shows the games running side by side with each other, which gives you an idea just how far this game has come.
One thing I noticed is the newer version seems to lack some of the "pop" in color the original had. What differences do you notice?

What you see above is a screen grab from the "controls" video for Dead Space Extraction, the two player co-op title coming out for the Wii this September. What you might not garner from the screen grab is a unique cooperative moment in the game.
Players are required to alternate solving the puzzle on the right side of the screen, while the other player fends off waves of attackers. This co-op moment is something not present in the single player game, and when you see it in action, you'll understand how it works.
ArmA 2 is available on Steam today, and the very co-op friendly game is already getting fairly solid praises. While the game sports a robust single player and co-op campaign, as well as plenty of online options - it's the mission editor of ArmA 2 that's getting a lot of attention.
Why?
I'll let this video do the talking, as they say - a picture is worth 1000 exploding planes.
Mystery Inc. is back in business in the latest Scooby Doo! title from Warner Bros called Scooby Doo! First Frights. Players will put their puzzle and mystery solving skills to the test as they unmask villain after villain. YOINKS! Mr. Bedfield the Butler!
"I would have gotten away with it, if it wasn't for your meddling kids!"
In true Scooby Doo! fashion you'll never have to be alone on your adventure as the Wii and PlayStation 2 title allows a friend to drop in and drop out on a whim. Hold me Shaggy! The game is set for a September release, until then feast your beady eyes on the trailer and screenshots.

We've already covered a bit about Madballs: Babo Invasion. We know the game will sport a four player online co-op mode putting players in the role of classic 80's franchise Madballs. Today though we've learned of an interesting option the game will allow on the Xbox 360 version of the game.
According to Destructoid, Madballs will allow you to use your Avatar head as the ball. You'll be able to customize it to some degree, strapping yourself with the greatest ball killing weaponry. Not only is this good for laughs, but it'll make it much easier to tell each other apart in the cooperative mode.
Don't believe us? Check out the video of it in action.

Last night I attended a Microsoft preview event held in New York City. On display amongst the numerous PCs, Zunes, Hardware and other goodies were some upcoming Xbox 360 titles. The first title I immediately was drawn to was Halo 3: ODST, in which a Microsoft rep was knee deep in a replay of the four player co-op Firefight mode.
Halo 3:ODST puts players in the role of various Orbital Drop Shock Troopers. These squads are the front lines, dropped into battle from space to soften up the landing zones for the rest of the marines. The campaign opens after the main character is dropped into battle and knocked unconscious by some event. As you progress through the story you'll find artifacts and clues that help piece the puzzle back together. Each clue you pick up triggers a playable flashback in another ODST's shoes.
Before we get into the awesome new looking campaign mode, lets get some announcements out of the way. Namco-Bandai has announced an October 27th release date for Tekken 6 on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PSP. For the truly dedicated fan the Fight Stick bundle will be available for $149.99 and contain the game, a wireless Hori fight stick and a limited edition art book.
Tekken 6 will also feature the Cardboard Tube Samurai from the popular Penny-Arcade webcomic.
I think that this is a first for game videos: the new Monster Hunter Freedom Unite tutorial video features four simultaneous PSP screen feeds at the 2:21 mark. Teaching newcomers to the series how to most effectively hunt and embark on quests, the video wraps up a four-part series with this little gem.
It doesn't take a video series for us to know how best to experience a four-player co-op game, but we're always glad to see the good word spread.

Games like Call of Duty always do a good job of making you feel like you are part of a larger battle than you actually have direct control over. But what if all those things you saw on the screen you could actually shoot or affect? That's exactly what ArmA 2 looks to be promising.
Two videos of the game have surfaced on YouTube, the first shows a night time battle with 1000 AI units fighting against each other.

Valve has just released a fresh batch of screenshots from their contoversial Left 4 Dead 2. In it we get to see some of the new weapons, characters and zombies that adorn the four player co-op sequel.
I'm not sure who the man in the yellow jacket is, but I don't think he's selling girl scout cookies.
We also have the teaser trailer in hi-def format that was on display at E3 2009. Enjoy!
