Lost Planet 2 Demo Coming "Soon"
Soon is such a vague word. "When are you coming over?" Soon. When will the PlayStation 3 get a price cut? Soon. When can I be the most awesomest person in the whole world? Soon.

As hurricane season nears for southeast Texas, the local news outlets here are scrambling to bring advanced coverage and hurricane-related articles regarding safety and accident prevention. It's great to see Houston communities coming together...you could even call it co-op. (See what I did there?)
I don't quite think I've ever seen a game series box art get so much attention as Left 4 Dead. Last year we discussed in detail as the box art flip flopped and went through a few iterations. Now with Left 4 Dead 2 on the horizon we thought all that would be past us for the four player cooperative shooter - but alas - that is not the case.
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!
In case you missed it, earlier this week FrozenByte released a PC demo for their upcoming three player co-op game Trine. We took the demo for a spin and we're happy to report the game is very co-op friendly, very beautiful, and best of all - very fun.
Would you pony up $10 for an premium Xbox 360 theme for Left 4 Dead? Looks like you might have to if you want to get the one picture above, created by Valve.
As tough as times seem to be in the world economy, we always love to point out co-op gaming deals. The one deal though that can never be beat, is that of a free game. Today we bring you two free cooperative titles, courtesy of The-Best-Free-Games.com.
EA Sports has made a big deal about Madden NFL 2010's new online co-op mode. It appears though that EA's other big football game this year will also feature cooperative play, at least if the official achievement list is anything to go by.
My, how things have changed since the original Space Invaders debuted more than thirty years ago! Looking back, the game seems so simple, it's hard to believe it was a national obsession. Move your ship beneath aliens, push the fire button, repeat, that's all there is to it. When Space Invaders Extreme was released on Xbox Live Arcade, I knew I had to get it for nothing more than nostalgic purposes. I was curious, too, at how my kids would react to it. In this era of open world gameplay, realistic 3D graphics, and cinematic storytelling, would young gamers get bored too quickly? The first test was to see if the kids would be interested when I was playing. After school one evening, we all went our separate ways: one kid to feed the dog, the other to his room to play with his toys. I fired up the Xbox 360 and started up Space Invaders Extreme. The walls started pounding in time with the deep bass of the EXTREME techno beat. I quickly turned it down before things started falling off the walls. (Anyone else notice thatSIE is louder than most other games?) Even just a few seconds of the loud music was enough to get my youngest son running to investigate. He immediately perched on the couch, entranced by the hypnotic action.
It seems summer has kept the Co-Optimus staff on the road, as it's been weeks since the whole crew was here.
