Halo 4 Spartan Ops continues to doll out the free content, sorta. This week in Episode 4 has you battling through some familiar maps, with the ultimate goal of shooting all of the dudes on screen. 

Ace Combat: Assault Horizon was a surprise game for me when it was released last year on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3; in my review I said it " truly competes with the likes of the Tom Clancy franchise games."  In the better late than never department comes the announcement of the PC version of the game is coming in Q1 of 2013 to be distributed by Steam and supporting co-op multiplayer via Games for Windows Live.  

Little Jimmy is excited, as an early seasonal treat he has bought himself Far Cry 3 on PC, but not all is well on this cold and snowy eve.  A Day 1 critical patch is required for the game to work better.  Fixes include dealing with some problems in the 4 player co-op mode.  Instructions on how to download the patch and what is included follow.

Due to major changes in the core game engine, DayZ, the mega-popular, zombie apocalypse mod of ARMA II will be pushed back until 2013.

Over the weekend we reported on Double Fine's Amnesia Fortnight Humble Bundle. The developer invited the public to take part in their two week prototyping process, allowing anyone to vote on games pitched by their talented team. Contributors will be able to download the top five games, as well as two prototype games from previous Amnesia Fortnights. The reward for contributing more than the average dollar amount (about $7.30)  is a prototype game called Brazen. This cooperative action title is the brain child of Brad Muir, who was the lead on Iron Brigade.

Dead Island: Riptide screenshots aren't exactly in short supply, as we saw a batch themed around the new chef character near the beginning of the month. But series fans demand more pictures of survivors slaughtering the undead, so it would be irresponsible of developer Techland not to dish new pics out. The highlight of this latest array of images is undoubtedly the one pictured above, in which a man with a bad haircut fends off an undead attacker with a boat oar. When the zombies come a-calling, who has time to get a proper haircut?

The Humble Bundle has a batch of THQ goodies for you today. Appropriately titled "The Humble THQ Bundle," you can name your price and pick up Darksiders, Metro 2033, Red Faction: Armageddon, and Company of Heroes, along with its two stand alone sequels, Opposing Fronts and Tales of Valor.  That's not all. If you beat the average price, which at the time of this writing is a criminally low $5.31, that's right, five dollars and thirty-one cents, you can get the awesome open world cooperative game, Saint's Row: The Third. 

A couple of weeks ago, Co-Optimus broke the news that 'Gangnam Style' would become available for Dance Central 3 on November 28th. As promised, the DLC came out yesterday for the standard price of 240 MS Points ($3). If you enjoy Psy's crazy popular K-Pop song, you won't be disappointed with Dance Central 3's interpretation. Read on for our full impressions and a trailer!

Warface is still on its way to North America...sometime.  But at this point the game is already out in some other territories, namely Russia.  The Crytek Engine 3 powered free to play game on the PC is boasting some impressive numbers already, with over 5 million active players.  According to Crytek, Russian players voted it the best online game in Russia as part of the Runet Awards; which were designed to honor the best Russian-language based games on the internet.

From the creators of the hardcore platformer, Super Meat Boy, Team Meat will be bringing one of their most dark, yet entertaining titles, The Binding of Isaac, to the console platform, and with local co-op play!

You simply can't ignore it. You can't not look at it. It beckons you. It calls to you. It's Locke Vincent's mustache. No kids, he does not have candy. It's episode 97 of the Co-Opticast and the crew is knee deep in whatcha been playin. After talk of Halo 4, Blops 2, Persona 4 and its unique co-op mode and plenty of other goodies it's onto the news and then some detailed discussion of the new co-op zombies mode in Call of Duty.

There are many, many characters in the Fist of the North Star universe. Several of the kill-crazed martial artists will be making an appearance in Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage 2. Many will be playable. If you like your rage-karate infused with supernatural, life-ending special effects, this may be the brawler for you.
