Good news for fans of the delightful co-op title Trine!  In an interview with Frozenbyte's CEO, Lauri Hyvärinen, Patrick Klepek of G4.com asked the question that's certainly been on our minds since we got our hands on this game: "Will there be more?" His response?

Don't panic!  But Borderlands on the PC just had its release date delayed.  Thankfully it's only been moved back six days from October 20th to October 26th.  The reason?  Adding that spit shine and polish the game so desperately deserves.  According to Gearbox that optimization process is taking just a bit longer than expected.  

We've got a regular cornucopia of Left 4 Dead news today for you.  First lets start at the upcoming DLC for Left 4 Dead 1 called Crash Course.  Valve has announced a release date of September 29th on both Xbox Live and Steam.  It looks like we were wrong, and so was Paramore.  We're crush crush crushed.

Sick of Halo 3: ODST news yet?  Well too bad!  I got a quick one for you here.  The co-op revolution continues as over 4 million co-op matches of ODST have taken place since the game launched just 24 hour ago.  That's pretty impressive.

A Civil War divides the Marvel universe.  Who will you side with?  Captain America, or Iron Man?  How awesome are the new Fusion attacks? Is Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 as good as the first game?  Find out in our review!

Wired provided a public notice yesterday warning players to manually save their Halo 3: ODST campaign before hopping over to the Firefight mode. Apparently, the game's autosave doesn't really care that you don't want to leave your friends waiting on you.

Microsoft has effectively lowered the price of their Xbox 360 Elite console to $249 by offering a $50 mail in rebate on the system.  The offer is valid for purchases made between now and October 5th - no doubt an effort to boost sales with ODST.

Getting closer to the games release, Fairytale Fights is showing us a little teaser of the brand of humor in the game through this new theatrical style trailer. Starting off with what you'd expect to see from a Fairytale story with sweet music and mystical glimmering text on the screen, and quickly melting into the hardcore gore-fest you will actually see with the game. All four characters show off their sweet moves in this one, co-op style!

You know those really annoying kid show characters, The Teletubbies?  They're these brightly colored, billowing, and loud creatures that squeal and talk like a bunch of cracked out unicorns.  And they need to die.
