The other day, we posted a news story where we reported that Lord of the Rings: Conquest only had one Co-Op achievement. Sad news, to be sure!

Earlier today, Nick posted Gears 2 versus Left 4 Dead, a comparison of two of this season's hottest co-op games.
We're big fans of Microsoft's revamped dashboard called the New Xbox Experience. It's not just the fancy features like a party system, streamlined interface, Netflix, or even avatars.

Sony has announced that their Home "service" is launching tomorrow to most regions around the world in the form of a public beta. We had posted some impressions before, but now everyone will get their hands on just what this service entails.
CVG reports that the Official Playstation Magazine spoke to Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami recently. Mikami, now with ex-Capcom studio Platinum Games, isn't exactly looking forward to playing Resident Evil 5.
I've always been a big fan of Techno and Trance music. Ever since I picked up Paul Oakenfold's "Tranceport" Album in college to get me through long nights of programming I've been impulsive about picking up any CD labeled "Trance." So when the rumor of DJ Hero came up, I knew I heard my calling.
Put on your parka and hit the slopes with up to sixteen friends in Shaun White Snowboarding. We give you the co-op review of the latest snowboarding game for the 360 and PS3. But does it live up to expectations or simply fall flat in the snow?
