Fans of the first game (a single-player only affair) have been pleased to know that Mercenaries 2: World in Flames has two-player co-op, and having a solid release date is all the more encouraging. Come August 31, Mercenaries 2 will give you and your buddy a chance to spend time in Venezuela (much to the chagrin of its president) just seeing the sites, and maybe occasionally blowing up a tank or two. Or twenty.

Update: It seems that Mr. Driller might be a fool after all. It seems as if many users are having problems with the online functionality (which is the only one to have the tag-team feature we mentioned). Hope this gets resolved soon. Thanks to JasonSuave for the heads-up.
