Let's face it. There are two types of people in the world. Those who love Minecraft, and those who don't. For those of us who love Minecraft, we are usually pretty happy to hear about news of any kind regarding the game. With Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition, more often than not that news is usually regarding a new skin pack. While these skin packs do not alter the actual gameplay in the slightest, they serve as a fun and entertaining alternative from the original skins. We enjoy distinguishing our co-op partners online by the myriad of skins that have been released since the game first came out for the Xbox 360.

The next, and most likely final, pieces of Borderlands 2 DLC have been announced, dated, and priced. The sixth playable character is named Krieg the Psycho Bandit. Krieg wil be released on May 14 for $9.99. Unfortunately for those of you who own the Borderlands 2 Season Pass, Krieg will not be offered for free. Just like Gaige the Mechromancer before him, Krieg will have to be purchased as a stand alone character in the "Psycho Pack" DLC.

Soul Sacrifice, a monster hunting game for the Playstation Vita, has been highly anticipated for quite some time now. Some have heralded it as a potential system seller for the Vita. Does it save the Vita or sacrifice your wallet? Find out in our Co-Op Review.

Soul Sacrifice is often compared to the Monster Hunter games for its party-based, monster-killing gameplay. Unsurprisingly, there are some big differences, and with its unique save-or-sacrifice mechanic as well as both online and Ad Hoc co-op, some questions about the co-op are sure to arise. We try to answer some of the FAQs in our Soul Sacrifice Co-Op FAQ.

Saints Row IV is looking more and more like it belongs in the Crackdown universe - and that's not a bad thing. We already know the game will gift players with super powers like leaping tall buildings, flying, and the ability to glow, but now we're seeing enemies that look pretty similar to the infected folks of Crackdown 2. The latest trailer for the Saints Row IV is called "Meet the President" and we'll let it speak (as well as wub wub) for itself.

The SimCity launch was the bumpiest ride I have been on since trying to chase a wheel of cheese down the side of a Gloucester hill.  Patches have been and gone; some fixes made, but new bugs created.  The game is more stable now, but fixes are still required.  Therefore, hooray for Patch 3.0, the latest update that hopes to improve Traffic and Transit in particular.

This week there's a whole lotta nothing going on. Monaco might be out on Friday, but I'll believe it when I see it. The Co-Optimus Release Calendar is woefully barren. I even checked on the status of Crimson Dragon and Blood Knights. Nah, I'm kidding. I doubt those games are ever coming out. The only new cooperative experience that will sate our need for digitized human companionship is a demo for Fuse, Insomniac's third person, class-based, super soldier shooter. 

Get ready for the heist of the year, playable on your couch via XBLA this Friday, May 10th. The sensational Monaco: What's Yours is Mine has already been making ripples in video game headlines, delivering devious joy to critics and players alike. Originally slated to release with the PC version of the game on April 24th, Monaco for XBLA has been in Microsoft Certification limbo for what seems like an eternity due to a fatal game bug. The bug in question would have caused disconnects during online play. Rather than elect to release the game with the issue and attempt to fix it later down the road, Pocketwatch Games wanted to nip the problem in the bud. They did so, and the gaming world has been waiting desperately for the game to pass the Microsoft Certification process. And the day will finally come this week.

Disney Infinity’s Toy Box mode is looking great so far, and should be a solid contender to the Skylanders franchise. As Avalanche Software explained in one of their behind-the-scenes video series, “Creating Infinity”, they were highly inspired to make Toy Box Mode from the Toy Story 3 movie and video game.

After playing through the original Zeno Clash, I didn’t know what to expect from ACE Team this time around. What do you do after making a first person brawler set in a fantastical world where you sort out differences through a bout of fisticuffs? The answer is simple, continue the adventure and add a co-op partner so you have double the flying fists. Zeno Clash 2 does not diverge from the obscure, relying on those brave gamers who want to try something out of the ordinary.

Leviathan: Warships, a turn based naval combat game, was released last week on PC via Steam. This week a tablet version is now available on both Android and iPad for the price of $4.99. All of the versions support cross platform play so you'll be able to pick up and play with just about anybody at anytime. The entire game can be played in co-op and it also offers a handful of co-op challenge maps to play. You can even utilize cloud save and start on one device and finish the game on another - nautical!

After getting acquired by Zynga in the fall of 2012, development studio A Bit Lucky has finally unveiled its next project. Solstice Arena aims to bring the fast-paced combat found in the multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) genre to phones and tablets, all without sacrificing gameplay depth or graphics quality. Battles will be three on three and feature full online support, because six people using one phone just isn't fun.
