E3 2012: Far Cry 3 Hands on Co-Op Mode and Developer Interview

I was wandering around Ubisoft's crowded E3 booth, trying to figure out how I was going to cover Far Cry 3's recently announced co-op mode. I was approached by a nice young woman who asked me if I had played the game. I told her I hadn't, and before I could bat my eyelashes she said she recognized the "Co-Optimus" name on my badge. She then informed me that she designed the co-op mode in Far Cry 3 and would very much like for me to play it.

New Super Mario Bros. 2 Offers Two Player Co-Op

Just when I thought I was done writing about co-op in Nintendo's games, they go ahead and have a second (third? I've lost track) E3 conference about the 3DS, and we've now learned that New Super Mario Bros. 2 for the 3DS will support two player co-op throughout its campaign, similar to its bigger brothers on the Wii and WiiU.

E3 2012 - Worms Revolution Hands on Preview

I've been playing Worms since the original came out on PC back in 1996.  If the theme song and intro didn't grab you, the addictive turn based gameplay and personalities of the worms definitely did.  The series has been through many iterations and sequels since, it's shifted from 2D to 3D and back again.  Now the game is in for a revolution, with Worms Revolution set to be released on XBLA, PSN and PC later this year.

Dead Island Riptide Announced, Details Coming This Summer

Deep Silver have announced a sequel to one of last year's greatest co-op games, Dead Island.  The new game is called Dead Island Riptide and it's in development for PC and consoles by TechLand.  Other than that we have absolutely no other details about the game, but the publisher promises a lot more details this summer.  We're guessing the big reveal will be at Gamescom in Germany later this year.  Obviously because of the late reveal, don't expect the game to be available this year, but instead move it into an already crowded 2013.

Today, High Moon studios announced Transformers: Fall of Cybertron would be bringing back War for Cybertron's cooperative Escalation mode. This is awesome news, because that means we can start covering it again! I was able to speak with Activision's JD Livergood, the associate producer for the latest Transformers game. We discussed the revamped Escalation mode while I got some hands-on time with a few single player missions.
