Runic Games have released the first trailer showing off gameplay footage of Torchlight 2. Not only do we get a glimpse of the new weather system and several new locations, we get our first peak at the co-op action. In fact, the entire trailer is focused on co-op play and how it was the number one asked for feature of the original. You see that - developers do listen to our feedback.
The latest batch of screenshots for the upcoming two player co-op Dead Rising 2 sure are interesting. To say there's a variety to the visual style is an understatement. On one hand you have the menacing undead horde, ready to consume your brains at a moments notice. On the other hand you have a dude in heart covered underwear wearing brass knuckles with huge spikes on them.
Sorry for the late notice on this one folks, but tomorrow night - that's Thursday August 19th - we'll be hosting a Crackdown 2 co-op night on Xbox Live! What could be better than running around Pacific City with some co-op partners putting an end to the Freak infestation? Read on to join up!
Harry Potter has been in the movies for a decade, and that means the video game tie-ins go all the way back to the previous generation of consoles. One might think that a property featuring a trio of teen wizards would be a co-op lover's dream, but that hasn't really been the case (with one exception). Later this year, co-op returns to the series in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part One (The Video Game).
We've been watching the development of the Wii tie-in for the Batman: The Brave and the Bold very closely. As an old comic book fan, with a young comic book fan or two at home, a two player co-op brawler with Batman in it sounds fantastic. The only thing that could be better? More players in co-op, of course! And it looks like that just may happen when the DS and Wii versions of the game communicate with each other.
Because Insomniac games isn't busy enough with Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One, set to be released this year, we want more sequels. Resistance 3 has been announced today at GamesCom, complete with an interesting little live-action teaser trailer with the basic assumption of 4 player co-op.
Full campaign, Drop-in/Drop-out 4 player co-op graces the duo Ratchet and Clank in the upcoming sequel Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One. Only, they’re now joined on the PS3 by two other heroes. Captain Quark and Dr. Nefarious will also be playable with up to four player co-op.
We've got a brand new trailer for Day One Studio's upcoming co-op shooter F.E.A.R. 3. If I remember correctly, this is actually the introduction to the game. The trailer show's our two heroes - Point Man and Fettel - as we learn how they came to be together for their soon to be co-op romp of destruction. The entire trailer seems to be narrated by the Fettel character, so it's a bit one sided, but there's plenty of action showcased.
We've got two videos for you this morning for Halo Reach. One of them an official video documentary called "A Spartan will Rise," the other something a little more unofficial that may be part of a viral marketing campaign.
Microsoft have announced a new game in the Age of Empires series called Age of Empires Online. Developed by Robot Entertainment, who are made up of former Age of Empires creators from Ensemble Studios, the game looks to break the mold of the previous Age of Empires games by adding in a bit of an MMO element. Originally teased as "Spartan" the Age of Empires Online puts players in the role of their own Greek civilization through various story lines and gameplay.
Kane and Lynch are back and they're heading to Shanghai China to complete a big job. But when things turn sour it's up to our co-op duo to get out alive. Our full review of the game's enhanced co-op mode, online multiplayer and more is right ahead. You might want to bring some Dramamine.
For some people, myself included, it wasn't very clear that when you created a "character name" when starting StarCraft 2 for the first time that you were actually creating your public username to be used in multiplayer and co-op matches. Thankfully Blizzard realizes that there's some confusion and will be offering a one time name change for free.
