Kalypso have just sent over a handful of new screens for Legends of Pegasus, the 4X strategy game set to come out on the PC this summer. Graphically the game is looking really good, but its the ship customization features and co-op play that has us the most excited.
At Co-Optimus we like to cater for all tastes, so for every ten headshot heavy, gun blasting violence-athons, we throw in a family friendly title. Brave: The Video Game is one such family affair; due alongside the Pixar film on July 24th across PS3, 360, PC and Wii (27th in the UK). The new trailer features gameplay, of the solo variety, but also some bear action. That is bear, as in furry mammal and not bare as in nude. If you want that sort of thing please read an article on one of the more adult games - try Catherine.
Ghost Recon: Future Soldier is only a few weeks away, so it might be time to clear out your backlog of Ghost Recon and other Tom Clancy games. At least, that's what Microsoft thinks, hence the Tom Clancy DLC sale on Xbox Live. Downloadable content for both GRAWs, Splinter Cell Conviction (my favorite Clancy game), and even the high-flying HAWX games are all on sale for half off for Xbox Live Gold members until Tuesday.
Just a friendly reminder to the Co-Optimus community: The Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition requires an HDTV for local co-op play. We mentioned this in our Co-Op Review yesterday, although it may not have been clear. We have updated the review accordingly.
Serious Sam 3: BFE is still coming to the Xbox 360. That's a relief. Playing on the computer is nice and all, but I really want to play from my couch, so I'm all for it. Croteam, the developer of the Sam franchise, recently gave a status update for the console versions in a Facebook post.

The days are getting longer, warmer, and just a bit more busy. Yes, summer is finally arriving and we've got some fun things planned for you all with our Indie-Ana Co-Op feature. Before we get there, though, we thought we'd do a quick retrospective of some of our winter and spring highlights.
Minecraft came out yesterday for the Xbox 360 and it seems it's going to be a huge success, especially for co-op gamers. One little problem for the game though, it's a pesky 1600 - that's $20 in real money. While that's still cheaper than the full version on the PC, that's a bit more than a lot of people are comfortable paying. Good news! You can get it for free today... here's how.
One of the biggest annoyances with couch co-op gaming is constantly trying to find that second controller. Thrustmaster agrees, that's why they are selling new combo packs of their T-Wireless controllers for the PC and PS3. The pair of controllers work on both systems out of the box and come in black and white colors.
With Ghost Recon Future Soldier only weeks away (22nd May date fans), Ubisoft are doing their utmost to make you prepared for the game. Only the other day a new trailer arrived that followed a prisoner's point of view after being captured by the Ghosts. An even newer trailer flips this idea on its head and concentrates on the life of a soldier. In a documentary style, the unnamed combatant informs us exactly what it’s like to fight battles in the near future. Want to know more? Check out the trailer.
The hit indie PC sensation finally makes its way to the console in Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition. With it comes couch co-op play and numerous enhancements, but are those enough to overcome some of the freedom the PC allows? Find out in our review.
Good games never die. They just get cheaper. Unless they're rare. Then they get ridiculously expensive, but I digress. Luckily for us, and fans of good games everywhere, Sony is offering all of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves DLC for the low, low price of el zilcho. That's right. It's all free.
