Fantasy RPG Hack n’ Slash dungeon crawler Darkspore is getting a bit of the curtains drawn on the gameplay, co-op, and unique elements that we should enjoy playing. Gamespot got a little hands-on time with the game, and they give us a lot to look forward to.
The wait is finally over, we now have a confirmed release date for Castle Crashers PSN. August 31st, 2010 you can spend that $15 that’s been burning a hole in your digital wallet on Castle Crashers. For those that already owned the Xbox LIVE version, there are a few incentives to re-purchase this one. First and foremost the entire game has been optimized in its transfer over to PSN.
It appears that the Nintendo Wii is not getting the only breakaway Ghost Recon title this year: the PlayStation Portable will be the landing site for Ghost Recon Predator, a game completely different from Future Soldier but not necessarily its replacement.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon has been off the grid for awhile, but we're finally getting some glimpses of the multi-platform bombardment that Ubisoft has in store for us. In addition to Ghost Recon: Future Soldier the Nintendo Wii and PlayStation Portable will be getting their own Tom Clancy action.
More assets are coming out of Gamescom 2010 in Germany, this time for the upcoming game, Hard Corps Uprising from Konami and Arc System Works. The hand drawn animation style combined with rich backgrounds are stunning to look at - and really - don't do the game justice unless you see it in motion.
We just got a fresh batch of screens from the Obsidian Entertainment developed action/rpg Dungeon Siege 3. Jason had looked at the game at E3 earlier this year and was incredibly impressed with what he saw. The latest batch of screenshots show off an incredibly impressive looking game with a variety of different areas and environments.
Brink is going to offer a multitude of pre-order bonuses depending on where you shop for your game. The two most popular ones are most likely going to be the DOOM pack, based on id's popular franchise, and the Fallout pack, based on Bethesda recent iteration of the popular franchise. Both packs will contain tattoos, hats, and wearable items themed after their respective games. In addition to these two packs there's two others called Spec-Ops and Psycho. There's no word on whether or not these packs will become available as paid DLC.
If, like me, you’ve been waiting for a modern-day River City Ransom to materialize, your prayers have just been answered. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is a brawler, firmly entrenched in the traditions of the old school, but with a surprisingly deep combat system, should you choose to explore it.
This Week in Co-Op, Co-Optimus News Network corespondent Jessica Jenkings interviews our own Nick Puleo and Sam Tyler on their latest mission in Lost Planet 2. Jessica asks the hard hitting questions as to exactly what went down on the battlefield and just why the heck there's a giant Servbot helmet involved.
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, as many of you know, releases today on Xbox Live Arcade, along with some good news from Publisher Square-Enix. Many of us were disappointed to find out that the XBLA version would not be launching with online co-op, being instead added in as a free update on September 28th (the same day the game launches for PC and PSN). As part of a way to make up for this disappointment, xbox 360 owners of the game will have access to the game's first DLC pack FREE for 30 days!
After several pre-rendered teaser trailers, it appears we're finally getting our first look at Lord of the Rings: War in the North and its 3 player co-op action. The only surprise here is that the camera appears to be from a more on the ground perspective, instead of an isometric top down look. Not necessarily a bad thing, just not what we expected from developer Snowblind.
