We talked briefly about House of the Dead Overkill on the latest Co-Opticast, but had I visited the recently launch official homepage...well I would have been even more excited. The site features some funky beats (and strong language) in the background, while the foreground is loaded with zombies and 70's style comic goodness.
The Wii has quickly established itself as the domain of the casual gamer. Mortimer Beckett and the Secrets of Spooky Manor fits in this niche perfectly. Is there a decent game here, or is is more of the same shovelware we all loathe? Would this be a good way to play co-op with your friends and family? Find out in our review!
A bit of good news for everyone who liked the idea of PixelJunk Eden, but found the controls and camera a bit unnerving.
The more I see of Dawn of War 2, the more of a rabid fanboy I become. This game looks like pure unadulterated bliss. The latest official trailer from Relic shows of the Tyranids, an brutal alien race who's strength is in numbers. Number that you'll be beating back with your co-op partner.
Tomorrow night is our monthly Xbox Live Co-Op Night, and as you may know the game de jour is Gears of War 2. What you don't know is that we have something extra special planned! Several members of the Gears 2 development team will be joining us to mercilessly slaughter the Locust Horde in co-op mode all throughout the night!
The Lord of the Rings movies may be a few years old, but that didn't stop EA and Pandemic from releasing a brand new game based on Peter Jackson's epic pictures.

It looks like yesterday's rumor was shot down already. In an interview with PSU, Guerrilla Games game director Mathijs de Jonge has said that even though co-op was originally planned in some form, it simply wasn't possible due to technical limitations.
As we previously told you, the Fable 2 Knothole Island DLC is out today, and true to their word you can download it right now. Weighing in at 532MB this is no small update with plenty of new places, creatures, weapons and quests. There are rumors about of a resurrection shrine in the DLC that will ressurect someone...or something. We don't want to spoil it for you.
So while the 360 version of Left 4 Dead was patched last week, our PC brethren were left for dead so to speak. Thankfully there is a savior, and his name is Blackgaze. Blackgaze is a user on the Valve forums, and he received an email response from Left 4 Dead writer Chet Faliszek.
During the CES last week, Harmonix head honcho Alex Rigopolous discussed a bit of the future of the Rock Band series. In a refreshing twist, he revealed that Rock Band 3 won't be a 2009 release.
