Streets of Rage and Sonic the Hedgehog 2 came out for iPhones and iPod Touches earlier this year - and while both games helped you relive the classic Sega Genesis titles - they were missing one key piece - co-op.
Good news today for those of you on Apple's platform that like to conquer the world - Civilization V is available to purchase as well as download via Steam. While the game originally was unconfirmed to offer Steamplay support, that means you can run the game on either Mac or PC just by purchasing either version, Aspyr Media have announced full Steamplay support at launch.
The Sony Playstation has really enjoyed the success of Media Molecules Little Big Planet since its initial release. So much so that the new Playstation Move is getting a new downloadable segment called Sackboy's Prehistoric Moves, only it takes the idea of friendly co-op one step further by requiring co-op to work.
Five years ago today, the Xbox 360 was released into the wild. We've compiled a list of the top five Xbox 360 game series, as determined by user ratings and staff review scores. How does your favorite stack up?
Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad is Tripwire Interactive's follow up to their successful PC title, Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45. In a market saturated with World War II shooters, Tripwire hopes the added features of Heroes of Stalingrad will help separate the title from the rest of the pack. One of these features is co-op play.
Our Psyko Audio contest to give away a sweet headset has come and gone - and our winner has been chosen. We had over 150 entries for the $300 cans but sadly we could only have one winner. The good news in this case is that everyone is going to end up a winner - at least to some degree.
Console fans have one less RTS game to stat-track. Halo Wars is about to receive a fifth title update. This update will do two things: 1) Fix some theatre issues, and 2) Prepare the game to be disconnected from halowars.com. The forums are transitioning to Halo Waypoint, which means the Halo Wars forums will be taken "completely offline". What does this mean to current players? Well, it means that they can expect an exclusive avatar for the Halo Waypoint forums, and an end to their precious, precious stats.
Good news, PlayStation 3 owners. Kingdom Under Fire II developer Blueside has confirmed that the Action/RTS game is coming to the PS3 at the same time as the Xbox 360 and PC versions. The exact release date has been hard to pin down, mainly due to problems with Xbox LIVE's closed content policy.
When Crackdown 2 was originally announced to have an 8 player co-op survival mode, we were ecstatic. When we found out the feature had been cut from the game...we were saddened. But the mode has returned, though slightly different, and only supporting four players - it's called Deluge - and its the latest piece of DLC for Crackdown 2.
Like the mighty spear of Totec, the online co-op patch for Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light has been thrust into the PlayStation 3 version of the game. This comes after the 360 version was patched with the same content plus some free DLC that is not available on the PS3. Online co-op was a feature that was much desired by those that played Guardian of Light, but sadly was missing from the launch of the game.
Not long after the Xbox 360 release of Fable 3, we’re already being granted new DLC. This DLC pack covers a new area under the city of Bowerstone (called Understone), two new mini-games, and a whole slew of new weapons. We gave this DLC pack a go in (local) co-op and are here to share those impressions.
