Borderlands 2 is no doubt one of this fall's biggest co-op games. We've compiled a handy FAQ as a compendium to our database entries. This is everything you need to know about Borderlands 2's cooperative experience spelled out in plain English.
It’s not easy to lose love for Mario games, especially when what they’ll look like in the near future. Nintendo has (again) pulled us into their newest Mario game, New Super Mario Bros. Wii U from the visuals alone. What’s even better is that we won’t even have to leave the comfort of our own homes to buy it. New Super Mario Bros. Wii U will be fully available for purchase and download via the online Wii U Store.
For those of you who wish a decent video game movie would be released in theaters for once, we might have a true winner with Disney’s Wreck-It Ralph. The movie’s official video game, however, is being described as the game that will “Inspire a whole new generation of young gamers”. Both Activision and Disney Interactive have been working on a side-scrolling, arcade title of Wreck-It Ralph: The Video Game for current Nintendo platforms to go right alongside what is portrayed in the movie.
It's happening. I know many of you are waiting for midnight, or you're anxiously checking tracking numbers. Don't worry. It will get here. Maybe. Wouldn't it suck if the Mayans were bad at math, and the world ended tonight at midnight? I mean, yeah, the end of the world is bad, but no Borderlands 2? Tragic.
In honor of Double Dragon: Neon's recent release on XBLA and PSN, this month's Co-Op International looks at a couple of classic Double Dragon games that never made it out of Japan. Both are ports of Double Dragon II: The Revenge and share a few things in common, but otherwise they could hardly be more different.
You may have heard of this little game called Borderlands 2. You know, that little game that may just be this fall's most anticipated co-op game. Well, it's out tomorrow, and not only does that mean we get to spend today wishing it was tomorrow, it means launch trailers which painfully remind us how much we are not playing this game right now!
In the list of bestselling games of 2011 you would find near the top the family friendly Skylanders. Activision not only made money from the game itself, but the countless character models they sold to use with the game. This is one developer that knows a good thing and the latest trailer for Skylanders Giants shows that the sequel will be more of the same, but bigger and brasher.
For this month's Co-Optimus Community Voice, I asked you, the community, to show off your creations. Two of you answered the call and showed off some pretty cool creations. Both entries are from first-time bloggers, so props to them for starting off strong.
Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition, the updated version of the classic RPG, has been delayed until November. The game was originally slated to be released this coming week, but an official post on the forums cites a team decision to hold off the game's ship date so the team can polish the game a bit more.
Right now, the entire staff hates Nick and Andrew. Why you ask? Because they'll be playing Borderlands 2 this weekend while everyone else simply throws rotten vegtables at them in jealousy. At least it looks like they are going to try to play SOME other video games while needlessly hurling lettuces.
While we were partying it up at PAX we managed to get some hands-on time with Medal of Honor Warfighter. We've been trying to nail down any possible co-op details since it was first announced back in February. The good news is that the game will include a compelling single player campaign which explores some of the hardships professional Tier 1 operators (very, very dangerous people) face on and off the battlefield. There will also be several multiplayer modes, one of which uses two man fireteams.
Have you seriously not pre-ordered Borderlands 2? What's wrong with you? Are you allergic to greatness? If so, I apologize. I hope you find a cure. You should probably stop reading this post. As for the rest of you savvy consumers, I'm sure you already know those of you who pre-order the looter shooter will be granted access to the Borderlands 2 Premiere Club. If features a host of goodies, including the upcoming Mechromancer class, custom Gearbox guns, and a mysterious Golden Key that will unlock the enigmatic Golden Sanctuary Loot Chest.
