We have yet another user-submitted Co-Op Couples article in the form of a great read from brainp0wa. Continue reading for the first fun chapter of a two-part Co-Op Couples series.

Activision has released a huge amount of information about a whole slew of upcoming music games.  Not content with one big release, they've got a quartet of games ready to go for the always crowded fall video game release schedule.  (Insert your own witty comment about quantity vs. quality here.)

It appears another classic co-op game is going to make its way to the Xbox Live Arcade.  The Sega Genesis classic Gunstar Heroes has seen a leaked achievement list.  As with most previous games that have had their achievement lists leaked, it all but confirms an imminent release of the title.

Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you the end of the longest running development of a game.  No, Duke Nukem Forever has not finally been finished.  Instead it appears that 3D Realms has shut down, closed their doors, and ceased to exist.  

There's an inherent nature in every human being to want to collect things.  Perhaps its baseball cards, coins, comics or pocket lint - everyone has a desire to create a collection of something.  I think this is why I find myself hopelessly addicted to a game that's well over 6 months old.  This week I picked up Too Human again, and I'm addicted to it not for the story or gameplay, but because of the co-op and item collection.

In an exciting move that will please hardcore fans but sting their wallets, Epic Games and Microsoft have announced that both previously available map packs for blockbuster title Gears of War 2 will be re-released in a retail package -- Gears of War 2: All Fronts.

Last year, Boom Blox hit the Wii, and, according to Co-Optimus' own artist-bot, Mike, it's one of the best experiences for waggly console.  Props to Steven Spielberg for the big improvement over his previous game featuring blocky characters, E.T.

We're gonna need a clean up in isle 7, because someone spilled a bucket of body parts.   Electronic Arts has released a handful of new screens for their upcoming co-op on rails shooter fot the Wii, Dead Space Extraction.

Our friends over at Colony of Gamers are running a kickass contest for Space Invaders Extreme, which releases today.  

With six weeks to go until release, it appears that the Ghostbusters Video game may have just gotten a 3rd publisher.   According to MCV, Sony has struck a "shock 11th hour deal" to publish the PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game in all PAL territories like the UK and most of Europe.  

Electronic Arts has announced that their co-op RTS, Battleforge, has dropped in price from $49.99 to $29.99.  This isn't a temporary sale, nope, this my friends is a permanent price drop.
