Hmm. It appears I may have forgotten to do one of these for March. For that, I apologize. April's round-up though isn't particularly interesting, it was an incredibly light month for co-op gaming with not a single AAA retail release. That's not to say we didn't see a few interesting titles come out, A Valley Without Wind stick in my mind, but overall things were very quiet. Here are some of the more interesting stories and features to come out in April, of 2012.
