This month adds another 600 plus games to our database. Digging deep into the corners of the internet to find the most obscure co-op games out there.

Avast and such.  Another weekend has arrived for the dread pirates known as the Co-Opticrew.  We may all be dangerously low on vitamin C, but that won't stop us from enjoying a few co-op video games over the next day or two.  Who knows, maybe we'll find a sunken treasure or two among the vast piles of recent releases.

The Co-Opticrew has had it with slogging through the same routine every weekend.  We've reached our breaking point, so it's only new horizons from here on out.  Spurred on by all the new titles shown off in the recent Xbox Games Showcase, we've decided to start playing (checks email thread)... the exact same games we...

Microsoft is holding its own virtual demo showcase, similar to what Steam did a few weeks back. The focus is on indie games, with over 70 unreleased Xbox games that will be available to download and play between July 21 -27. 

Almost exactly three years ago, I reviewed the HyperX Alloy Elite Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. It was the second HyperX keyboard, iterating on the success of the Alloy FPS - a keyboard which had converted me as a believer in the difference that a good mechanical keyboard can make.

The addition of Halo 3 to the Master Chief Collection on PC has got the Co-Opticrew all revved up for the weekend.  You can bet we'll be cranking up that difficulty and slamming our heads against the co-op campaign for as long as our bodies will allow.  We may be older and less agile than the first time Halo 3 came to town, but you can bet we haven't lost our cooperative gaming expertise.  Honestly, though, it's probably a good thing we're a co-op site, because diving back into the competitive multiplayer would probably go... not well.

After a short break in June, we’re back with another issue of MMOCO! In this issue, we’ll be looking at a new area and storyline for Black Desert Online, a delay for New World’s launch, and a month-long event for Defiance and Defiance 2050. Let’s jump in! BDO Adds Papua Crinea Island and Storyline At the end of June,...

The construct of time is becoming less and less stable here at Co-Optimus HQ, but I'm hearing from outside sources that another weekend is upon us.  With reality slipping into the same, Groundhog Day-esque loop, it makes sense that the Co-Opticrew has turned to simple building blocks as a way to force some sort of logic back into their lives.  Whether or not it will work remains to be seen, but you can't fault them for trying.

It's been a while since we've done a co-op month in review here at Co-Optimus, but I thought it was worth pointing out that we have a brand new staff member that is devoted solely to improving our database. As such we've added almost 300 games this month closing several gaps and adding a lot of the newly announced titles during the time that was traditionally E3.

The Co-Opticrew is delving into the mire of Steam's Summer Sale and hoping to emerge with as many precious baubles as our wallets will allow.  You'd think year after year of discount-diving experience would make us a bit more savvy with our hard-earned dollars, but that's not quite the case.  However, we have posted a missive from our journey that may help guide any newcomers.  It's definitely worth checking out if you're wanting to pick up a few co-op games over the next week or two.

The Steam Summer Sale 2020 is in full effect. If you didn't know it's the annual time of year where your wallet screams for mercy because "oh, it's only $4" times 37. There are plenty of big name co-op games on sale, you've got your Borderlands 3, Halo: The Master Chief Collection, and Monster Hunter: World among dozens of others. But we're going to dig a bit deeper than page 1 and show you some of our favorite games we've found on deep discount.

The Co-Opticrew is throwing caution to the wind this weekend and playing whatever our sweet, gamer hearts desire.  While we typically advocate for a tightly-scheduled cadence of video game delights, we've decided to add a little variety into the mix.  After all, what's life without some spontaneity?  Who knows - if this weekend goes well, maybe we'll replicate these ideas in other parts of our lives.  Anyone down to hitchhike across the country next month?
