The Call of Duty series has done nothing but build steam since the original title, and now Infinity Ward is pulling out all the stops with Modern Warfare 2; this latest rumor is one that should please fans of cinema.
I was already fairly excited about the upcoming over-the-top shooter remake Serious Sam HD. That's before I watched the new trailer. Now, the rest of my life pales in significance compared to Serious Sam HD. I am planning to rob a hardware store for the parts to build a time machine tonight. Once the machine is built, I can travel to the future, September 9, to be exact, so I can start playing Serious Sam HD. Watch the trailer at your own peril, unless you plan to become a time traveler as well.
To absolutely no one's surprise, Microsoft has dropped the price of the high end Xbox 360, the Elite. Likely in response to the new PS3 Slim, the Elite's price is down a Ben Franklin to $299. The Pro model, with a 60 GB hard drive, is being phased out, and prices for that version are chopped to $249. The hard drive-less Arcade remains at $199.
Sometimes we find co-op in the most unexpected ways. Take the gaming clan Tied the Leader. A predominately versus clan, the folks cooked up a crazy idea - lets see how many medals we can get in one shot of the Spartan Laser in Halo 3.

Boy, do we have a multiplayer preview for you. Walk with us now, as we explore Demon Souls - the PS3 exclusive intense dungeon crawler, set to hit shelves just in time for Halloween complete with co-op. Well, maybe complete is a strong word, the co-op in Demon Souls is much different than you'd expect in a dungeon crawler. No Leroy Jenkins action. No loot splitting. In fact, very odd almost-co-op style co-op.
Halo 3 is one of those titles that I just never picked up. Even though I only recently (i.e., within the past year) bought a 360, the latest game in the Halo series wasn’t one that I just had to get hold of right away. I actually avoided it for as long as possible for a variety of reasons, but a certain someone, along with the price tag that comes with a game that’s close to two years old, convinced me that it was probably time to finally see what folks have been talking about. Buckle up tight, folks: this week in co-op, we take a day trip to New Mombasa.
The PlayStation 3 version of Ghostbusters: The Video Game was criticized for its display issues, and for good reason. In fact, we "heartily" recommended the Xbox 360 version, citing the sub-par visuals as a solid reason.

It's hard to believe, but tomorrow marks the one year anniversary of the release of Castle Crashers.
