It took awhile, but I finally had fun in OVERKILL's The Walking Dead. The game is a new four player co-op shooter out now on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC from the makers of the PayDay series. While everyone's mind immediately goes Left 4 Dead, the game is anything but.
The Co-Opticrew is fending off the cold weather the best way we know how - by ignoring it entirely and huddling around a kitchen table or LED screen. It hasn't been scientifically proven that the body craves cooperative gameplay at lower temperatures, but it hasn't been disproved either. So, you know, I'm gonna chalk that one up as a universal truth for the time being.
Earthfall, the four player co-op alien shooter, is free this weekend on Steam. Players can jump in and check out all the major new features and improvements from the Invasion Update that includes a horde mode and player progression system.
The Cloud MIX is an intersection between the well-established HyperX Cloud headset line and a new venture into mobile-focused gaming, making the name “MIX” an apt descriptor.
Tesla vs Lovecraft, the top-down twin stick shooter from developer 10tons, has been festering in our collective stomachs since its release in January of 2018. Its nutrients have almost been fully absorbed at this point, so it's a good thing the game's next course is coming our way in early December.
For The King's unique blend of JRPGs, strategy games, and roguelikes has intrigued the staff at Co-Optimus to no end. Fortunately for us, there's a new batch of free DLC coming later this month, so all that time spent staring at the game, mouths agape, will hopefully come in handy.
Fatshark Games' time as developer of Warhammer: Vermintide 2 (as well as its predecessor) has mostly been forward-thinking. Since releasing the game in March of this year, the Stockholm-based studio has sought ways to enhance their first person bashing simulator through the addition of new stages or unique items. This time, though, their inspiration has come from the distant year of 2015.
Aces of the Luftwaffe - Squadron is receiving some new content today, in the form of new levels, six new bosses, and enhanced cooperative play. The DLC is called Nebelgechwader and follows an alternative view of the events of the base game.
The cold and often rainy days of November are perfect for sitting inside, sipping a cup of hot tea or coffee, and getting in some quality gaming time. For this month of November, we have content updates for SWTOR and DC Universe Online and a new way to play LOTRO. Jedi Under Siege Announced for December Bioware recently announced that the 5...
The Steam client is constantly getting updated, and with it, usually comes updates to the related services. The latest update to the Steam client provides enhancements for those folks that have a Steam Link in their home, or more specifically, have two.
Crackdown is hands down one of the all time best co-op experiences I've ever had. Climbing the tower with a buddy, trying to make the biggest wreckage possible by piling cars, or simply speed running to collect orbs - it bar none set the open world standard for co-op sandbox action. Now it's yours for free on Xbox One or Xbox 360.
The results are in, and it turns out the Co-Opticrew is violently opposed to even remotely showing any bias towards a single game, at least based on our weekend plans. Maybe it's for the best, though, as we'll now have all sorts of fun, unique anecdotes to share on Monday. If our staff wasn't based all over the world (and if water coolers were still a thing that people used), we'd be standing around them the whole day.
