Syndicate Co-Op Demo Hits PSN, XBLA This Month

We're a little over a month away from the release of a game that's certainly one of my most (hesitantly) anticipated co-op games of the year, Starbreeze's FPS remake of Syndicate. When I first heard about one of my favorite RPG, RTS hybrid games for the PC getting a new release, I was rather hesitant about the change to a FPS format. Then the game footage started making the rounds and I was a little more encouraged. The co-op aspect, though, is one that still leaves me wondering a bit about how well it will actuall work within the game's seemingly "twitch" framework. Fortunately for all of us, we'll be able to test it out soon enough.

Shogun 2: Fall of the Samurai Preorders to Get Special Factions

A bit over a month ago, we told you guys about the upcoming stand-alone expansion for Shogun 2, entitled Fall of the Samurai. Now we have some word about some preorder bonuses for said game. Whether you preorder online from Steam or the SEGA Store or preorder a boxed copy anywhere else, you'll receive one of three exclusive preorder faction packs. Steam will get you the Tsu Faction Pack and the game's soundtrack while the SEGA Store will net you the Obama Faction Pack (and no, I don't mean you can send batallions of the president's clones into battle). If you don't like digital versions, preordering a boxed copy from another retailer will grant you access to the Saga Faction Pack as well as grant you a double-sided poster. Full details on these packs are as follows:

PC Release of Mass Effect 3 to Require Origin, Will Be Without Steam

This will probably be the last time we post a story like this, because expect it to be the norm.   That is, future digital EA releases on the PC will only be available via Origin for download and most likely, retail versions of the game will also require you install Origin to have them run.  Origin is EA's online service for its PC games.  Mass Effect 3, with its four player online co-op mode, will be the next game from EA to follow this sort of DRM method.

Will Thief 4 Have Co-op? Warning Extreme Rumor Control

You may have noticed by the freezing weather outside and the lack of cash inside, that it is January.  That makes it the gaming news silly season, where Co-Optimus scrambles around looking for any nugget of information during this barren month.  Well, extreme Rumor Alert!  Could Thief 4 contain a co-op mode? *Warning* this news item contains moments of heightened extrapolation and wanton fancy.
