Borderlands has received a small update on the PC to fix a big annoyance.  

If you're looking to get a little Left 4 Dead 2 in tomorrow night, and you don't have any friends to play with, you may be left out alone with the zombie horde.  Why?  Steam is performing some maintenance on its services which includes Steam matchmaking services.

Counting down to the Dawn of War 2 DLC expansion titled "Chaos Rising," the developers have started releasing details about the two new Commander heroes for the Last Stand mode. This week we learn about the hulking beast of a Tyranid Hive Tyrant - who's durability and swarm summoning abilities make him a force to be reckoned with.

EA is going to have one advantage for it's competition when Dante's Inferno launches next week - online co-op.  Often rumored in God of War 3 which arrives a month later, Dante's Inferno will be getting an online co-op challenge mode for two players in the downloadable content pack called Trials of St. Lucia.

It's not often we as players get the opportunity to directly participate in the development process of a game, be it indie developed or not. Furthermore: how often do we see decent studios have to shut their doors and throw out perfectly good game concepts and engines?

Electronic Arts has released four new screens for Command and Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight on the PC.  The two player co-op title is set to hit in March, but you can get your hands on the multiplayer beta right now.  

Warner Bros has announced that LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 will be available this May with 2 player co-op on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, and PC.  A specific date in May wasn't given.

News as good as this takes AGES. Having seemingly dropped out of the console race with the Dreamcast, SEGA have actually been producing several one off pre-packaged consoles that contain many of their classic games. Their latest effort in this range is far more exciting, not only will the new console called SEGA Zone have classic co-op games included (such as Golden Axe), but will also have motion controls.

Behemoth has a great record when it comes to co-op games: Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers are each excellent, combining old school gameplay with great design and humor.  We've been watching developments about their next title, known previously as 'Game #3'.  The new name is BattleBlock Theater, and lots of new information about it has hit Behemoth's blog.

Like Sands through the hour glass, these Diablo 3screenshots remind us we're still waiting for the game's 2011 release.  In both cases we're staring at something full of sand.  The latest batch of screens, courtesy of Big Download, show off plenty of desert environments - and plenty of blood.  

G4TV sat down with Gearbox VP of product development Aaron Thibault, producer Stephen Palmer and game director Matthew Armstrong to discuss Borderlands in a new post mortem.  While they get the full story on things we've already heard about - art style, dlc and release dates - there is some new material that's worth a read.

At the end of December we told you that Assault Heroes, the Wanako developed top down co-op shooter, would be hitting the PlayStation Network this year.  It's this year...and the game is out.  Published by Konami the game is almost identical to its Xbox Live bretheren, with one exception - there's no online co-op.
