Gatling Gears is what you get when you mix one part old-timey war game, a quarter cup co-op, a foundation of twin stick shooter, and some interesting design choices on the Xbox LIVE Arcade and Playstation Network. How well do these ingredients work together? Well, that’s what we set out to discover.

Last month we had a hands-on preview of the promising Gatling Gears.  It's a twin stick shooter that has some RPG elements, plus two player local and online co-op.    You will pick up "gears" throughout the thirty-level campaign and spend them on upgrades for your battle chassis. You can then pilot your own customizable mech in your friend's game.  Today we have some new screen shots showing plenty of destruction and explosions.  As big twin stick shooter fans, Gatling Gears is one to check out when it becomes available this spring on XBLA and PSN.

Twin stick shooters used to seem like a dime a dozen, but they really offer some of the best co-op experiences out there. A new EA published title called Gatling Gears looks to expand on the genre adding in some RPG-lite elements. We went hands on with the game at a recent event in our latest preview.
