Resident Evil: Revelations Demo to Arrive Next Week

NEWS 3:00 PM on 5/10/2013 by Christopher Metz

Resident Evil 6 may have been a disappointment for the most hardcore Resident Evil fans, but not every game in the series has strayed completely away from that original feel. The demo for Resident Evil: Revelations, which will be hitting the console scene next week, was given pretty decent reviews as a 3DS title.

Celebrate Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition's First Birthday with Free Skins

NEWS 3:00 PM on 5/10/2013 by D.J. Waaland

Hard to believe, but Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition was released exactly one year ago yesterday. What better way to celebrate the first year anniversary of the sandbox classic than to make a free set of birthday skins available to all players? That is exactly what Microsoft and Mojang have decided to do. Aptly titled the "1st Birthday Skin Pack," this particular skin pack will add an additional 23 skins to the already huge assortment of 319 skins that can be found in eight other packs. Here's a list of all of the skins that are included in the birthday bash:

Sanctum 2 Preview

Preview 10:05 AM on 5/10/2013 by Marc Allie

Coffee Stain Studios has been releasing a steady stream of teaser trailers these last few weeks, getting everyone hyped up for its follow-up to 2011's Sanctum. Combining tower defense mechanics with a first person shooter core, Sanctum was a surprising hit. The sequel takes a slightly different path, riding the action train to Shoot-All-The-Things Town, leaving some of the strategy behind in favor of hands-on alien killing.

NEWS 6:33 AM on 5/10/2013 by Sam Tyler

If you are more lover, than fighter; or pointy eared, buxom wench, than cleric - perhaps the latest character class for Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara is for you?  The new trailer introduces us to the Elf class, an intelligent, but slightly weaker option.  Use spells and distance weapons to help tackle undead minions in the upcoming 4 player co-op game.

First Look at Techland's New IP - Hellraid

NEWS 3:00 PM on 5/9/2013 by D.J. Waaland

From the creators of Dead Island comes the next new IP from Techland. The name of the game is Hellraid, and up until now, not much was known about the game. According to the latest news that has been released about the game, it looks like quite an engaging cooperative experience. Set in a dark-fantasy world, Hellraid is a cooperative first-person action-RPG that seems to draw from games like Hexen and DIablo. The producer, Marcin Kruczkiewcz told Eurogamer Poland "We want you to feel that the game is made by guys in their '30s,"You can't forget about the past. As young enthusiasts we enjoyed the first Quake, second Hexen or Diablo, and all that remains in us somewhere."

Watch Seven Minutes of Saints Row IV Footage, Be Amazed

NEWS 9:23 AM on 5/9/2013 by Nick Puleo

Co-Optimus didn't get to check out PAX East this year in full, so we missed the unveiling of Saints Row IV. The game was on display on the show floor with a hands off demo which showcased all of the game's new features. Lucky for us, Deep Silver have released the entirety of the demo in video form and put it on the interwebs - isn't technology grand?

How Pocketwatch Games Chose to Make Their Mark in Modern Gaming

NEWS 8:54 PM on 5/7/2013 by Christopher Metz

It’s not always easy to going against the grain, especially when wanting to make significant changes within a culture. This, however, didn’t stop Pocketwatch Games from making a statement with Monaco: What’s Yours is Mine. Andy Schatz recently wrote a special editorial to Kotaku about why they chose to take the game in the co-op route instead of just going a generic multiplayer one.

New Skins for Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition Out Soon

NEWS 8:00 PM on 5/7/2013 by D.J. Waaland

Let's face it. There are two types of people in the world. Those who love Minecraft, and those who don't. For those of us who love Minecraft, we are usually pretty happy to hear about news of any kind regarding the game. With Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition, more often than not that news is usually regarding a new skin pack. While these skin packs do not alter the actual gameplay in the slightest, they serve as a fun and entertaining alternative from the original skins. We enjoy distinguishing our co-op partners online by the myriad of skins that have been released since the game first came out for the Xbox 360.

Krieg wil be released on May 14 for $9.99. Unfortunately for those of you who own the Borderlands 2 Season Pass, Krieg will not be offered for free. Just like Gaige the Mechromancer before him, Krieg will have to be purchased as a stand alone character in the "Psycho Pack" DLC.

Saints Row IV - Meet the President Trailer

NEWS 9:14 AM on 5/7/2013 by Nick Puleo

Saints Row IV is looking more and more like it belongs in the Crackdown universe - and that's not a bad thing. We already know the game will gift players with super powers like leaping tall buildings, flying, and the ability to glow, but now we're seeing enemies that look pretty similar to the infected folks of Crackdown 2. The latest trailer for the Saints Row IV is called "Meet the President" and we'll let it speak (as well as wub wub) for itself.

Fuse Demo Out This Week

NEWS 8:08 PM on 5/6/2013 by Andrew Gaskill

This week there's a whole lotta nothing going on. Monaco might be out on Friday, but I'll believe it when I see it. The Co-Optimus Release Calendar is woefully barren. I even checked on the status of Crimson Dragon and Blood Knights. Nah, I'm kidding. I doubt those games are ever coming out. The only new cooperative experience that will sate our need for digitized human companionship is a demo for Fuse, Insomniac's third person, class-based, super soldier shooter.

Monaco XBLA To Launch this Friday

NEWS 6:30 PM on 5/6/2013 by D.J. Waaland

Get ready for the heist of the year, playable on your couch via XBLA this Friday, May 10th. The sensational Monaco: What's Yours is Mine has already been making ripples in video game headlines, delivering devious joy to critics and players alike. Originally slated to release with the PC version of the game on April 24th, Monaco for XBLA has been in Microsoft Certification limbo for what seems like an eternity due to a fatal game bug. The bug in question would have caused disconnects during online play. Rather than elect to release the game with the issue and attempt to fix it later down the road, Pocketwatch Games wanted to nip the problem in the bud. They did so, and the gaming world has been waiting desperately for the game to pass the Microsoft Certification process. And the day will finally come this week.
