The Ghost Recon franchise has seen its share of games on the PC, 360, and PS3 - but sadly has been mostly devoid on Nintendo's Wii. The good news is the series is making its debut on the console, and depending on your preference, the bad news may be that its an on-rails shooter instead of the tactical third person game we've all grown to love.
With the holidays right around the corner we've got the perfect gift for your co-op partner - a Co-Optimus T-Shirt! We've been shouting from the mountain tops about our Co-Optimus T-Shirt store at Splitreason for months now - and so far - we've heard nothing but good things from people who've purchased them.
What with all the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, this one almost got by us. The Playstation Network is having a "Stock Up for Winter" sale, extending through Monday, November 29. The titles included in the sale are going for 50% off regular price. Only two co-op games are on the list. For the PS3, Deathspank is available for $7.49. For those who prefer their co-op in the handheld fashion, Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker for the PSP is a mere $19.99. Check out the non-co-op deals at the link below.
It's very difficult for a game to stand out these days. Store shelves are packed full of dozens of different titles for multiple systems. It's even tougher for downloadable titles, especially when you consider the hundreds of other games out there, and the limited options for advertising. One upcoming game, a puzzler called ilomilo, has taken a unique approach to make itself noticed. Instead of providing a demo in the Xbox Live Arcade store, potential players must visit the ilimilo secret code site, where they can get a code that, when redeemed, gives you a demo of the game. It's certainly a novel approach.
In what seems to be all the rage these days, another game that previously had no co-op is adding a cooperative survival mode via premium DLC. Square-Enix's Front Mission Evolved, an action oriented mech combat game is getting a survival mode called The Last Stand on the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC versions of the game.
As the gaming season winds down, we are still kneed deep in our reviews. This month we have several triple A single player titles to look at including two from the James Bond franchise, a new Assasin's Creed and many others. Beyond Co-Op Reviews look at the games that don't necessarily have co-op.
The world is set ablaze with holiday shopping fever. Black Friday, known for its 3AM store openings and crazy deals on everything from electronics to coffee makers, is set upon us filling our gaming coffers ever more full of more gaming goodness. Amazon was particularly harmful today with many new releases available for under $30. Even without these new titles there's plenty of stuff to play, keeping the staff busy.
