When word came around that Blizzard would be releasing Diablo 3 for the PS3 and PS4, most of us were stunned. It had been a long time since Blizzard has announced anything regarding the console platforms. But they did just that at the Playstation 4 reveal earlier this year. From a game that has garnered polarizing coverage, yet soared in terms of sales, it looks like the console version of Diablo 3 may turn out to be a wonderful cooperative experience. Tally went hands on with Diablo 3 on the PS3 at PAX East, and was rather impressed.

The latest trailer for Insomniac's cooperative shooter, Fuse, allows us to see things from the Raven leaders' point of view. They're simple people, really.-simple people running a technologically advanced paramilitary organization bent on global domination. The leaders of this force are trying to capture the Fuse substance to reshape the world. Of course, their vision of this new world is one of profiteering, toppled governments, terror, and supplication.

Activision has unveiled the next game in the Call of Duty franchise, or rather, they have unveiled when the full unveiling of it will be.

Everything will be unveiled on May 21st when Microsoft reveals their next generation console at an event in Redmond, Washington.

Nothing is more exciting than subterranean architecture. Nothing. Therefore, the very concept of the Dungeon Keeper-esque Impire is equal to approximately four and a half barrels full of monkeys (the international standard for fun measuring). An action-strategy game at its core, Impire places you in charge of a sprawling underground lair teeming with the usual stuff that teems in underground lairs. It's your job to build and maintain the dungeons and ensure the minions stay properly demonic in the process.

After all the teases and quick looks, Atlus has finally released a video that shows a significant amount of gameplay from Zeno Clash II. The first person melee game is set in a surreal world where combat is as combo-heavy as it is hands-on. No fair using guns to pick foes off from a distance. Here, you actually have to step in and get some blood splattered in your face. It's a bit like Mirror's Edge with a lot more punching. Wait, let's go back and write that again with emphasis: a lot more punching.

Seen Iron Man 3 already and can't wait until 2015 for Avengers 2?  Well fear not web heads as LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is coming later this year.  Not only can you create Avengers escapades, but the rest of the Marvel Universe will be on show, from Wolverine to Deadpool.  Some of the available characters are in this new teaser trailer for the game, but as Iron Man suggests, they are going to need a few more heroes to help with this colossal problem.

Techland's "Project Hell" has officially been announced as Hellraid. They're calling it a "First Person Co-Op Slasher." Sounds good to me. Techland developed Dead Island and Dead Island: Riptide, so we should have an idea of how the game will play.
