Transformers: Fall of Cyberton has got itself a shiny new release date: August 21. This is one of those rare occasions when a game's street date is actually moved up. Sure it's only a week, but I'll take any oasis in the desert that is the summer release schedule. The amount of triple A co-op games coming out between now and then is slim.

Neo-Umbrella's badass villainess/misunderstood anti-hero Ada Wong may be getting her own cooperative campaign in the latest installment of the Resident Evil franchise. Eurogamer (via NeoGAF and Gamefaqs) reports that the recently released Resident Evil 6 Xbox 360 demo contains files which divulge clues about the super spy's story. 

We're a few days late, but we've just posted our June round-up of co-op news, reviews, and features.  With E3 taking up the bulk of our coverage for the month, there's a LOT of quality content that you may have missed.  Along with our preview coverage of the upcoming co-op games from the show, we also reviewed a ton of co-op titles.

An hour long video of Star Wars: Battlefront 3 has leaked to the web from what looks like a pretty early copy of the game.  We've heard rumors time in and time out that a sequel was in the works, but at some point it was cancelled by Lucas Arts.  The game was being developed by Timesplitters creators, Free Radical.

While Halo 4 has been stated to not require players to purchase in game content to have an enjoyable experience, it is a good possibility players will be forced to save up for extra memory space to play this highly anticipated fall release.

Now, I know that we stated before that Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition and Microsoft wouldn’t be charging anyone for updates (which they won’t). If you want to diversify yourselves from the normal 8 skins available during co-op, however, this is your chance to be stand out!

You know what you need? More Resident Evil news, that's what. Resident Evil: Chronicles HD Collection came out last week. It's an on-rails shooter that allows two local co-op players to blast through some of the early lore of the Resident Evil series. The title is an HD compilation of RE: The Umbrella Chronicles and RE: The Dark Side Chronicles, which were both good, M-rated, fun on the Wii.

There are a lot of Kickstarter campaigns out there for a variety of projects ranging from boardgames to videogames to underwater rovers. One such project that we noticed, and of which we brought word last month when it started up, was for Cadenza Interactive's next game: Retrovirus. Offering a six-degrees of freedom style of gameplay (think Descent) along with a fully cooperative campaign, Retrovirus is a bit of an ambitious title for the relatively new studio, but it's a project they are very passionate about and are eager to share with the videogaming community. In fact, they now have a playable alpha version available for download so you can get an idea of what the game's about. Check out some gameplay footage after the break.

Dragon's Dogma owners have something to crow about today. If you have the Xbox 360 version of Capcom's fantasy title you can now download the Resident Evil 6 demo through Xbox LIVE. Judging by the press release, this demo will include the three separate campaign missions that were on display at last month's E3. Chris Redfield, Leon Kennedy, and Jake Muller each face threats from Umbrella in three vastly different locations across the globe. Unfortunately, you'll have to go it alone. The demo doesn't support co-op. UPDATE: It appears the demo DOES support online co-op. Awesome! If it supports offline co-op, drop us a line, and I'll update again.

Co-Op games have come a long way since our first terminology guide. We've seen hundreds of new titles appear offering unique ways to share the gaming experience in a non-competitive way. We thought it was a good time for a refresher and a good time to tweak some of the terminology used around the site to avoid confusion. With a database of over 2000 cooperative video games, there's something for everyone.

We can’t seem to get enough of Resident Evil 6 right now, especially after our recent, hands-on E3 impressions with its co-op. Two new gameplay videos of heroes Leon Kennedy, Jake, and Sherry have caught our eye, and thus we must share them with all of you.

It sure took Valve a long time to get to this point, but now we have an official release date for Left 4 Dead 2 campaign, “Cold Stream”, set to release later on this month.
