Warframe is a free to play action game from developer digital extremes. In the game players take control of Tennos, a race of people who specialize in sword and gunplay. You're basically a space ninja and that's OK. Like any free to play game there are premium items to purchase. We break down the co-op aspects of the game along with some of the items you might be spending money on.
Free to Play games have traditionally had a negative reputation attached to them. For many the first thoughts that come to mind when hearing those three words are games like Farmville and Candycrush. It's the social stigma, the casual game, the titles are "real" gamer would never touch. But the reality of it is, there are some really quality AAA titles out there available for free, and some of those titles feature some strong cooperative play.
Uncharted 3 may offer the first 15 levels of the competitive multiplayer for free, but sadly co-op isn't included. The good news is that players can purchase additional components of the game separately without springing for the whole package. Maybe you've delved into the free multiplayer and have been eyeing the additional co-op sections of the game. If you've been patiently biding your time to pick up the co-op DLC, then you'll probably want to take note of this one-weekend sale.
Wow, can it be any quieter in the gaming industry right now? We are digging for news about cooperative titles but everyone must be away on vacation or something. Seriously, what's up with that? We've dug up some other stories from this week about games, acquisitions, and a few videos to occupy your time.
It seems a certain non co-op game has piqued the staff's interest. Shadowrun Returns brings the classic franchise back to the modern age with a turn based tactical RPG. Free to play games also join the fray, which coincidentally, we'll be covering all next week in our Free to Play Co-Op Special.

A new flavor of luchador goodness has come to Guacamelee!, in the form of a DLC set in its own version of Mexican hell! “El Diablo’s Domain” gives players extended playtime with one fiendishly difficult level, additional challenge levels, and various costumes to wear.

Aliens: Colonial Marines Season Pass owners can now get their final piece of DLC. "Stasis Interrupted" crept onto digital markets yesterday. I know ACM was a disappointment to many, including me. It fell somewhere on the Outraged Gamer Scale between "Don't care" and "OMG! Let's sue over the Mass Effect 3 ending." It has finally been put out of it's misery.
