The game was a literary masterpiece with an incredibly original story. So it was with great surprise to find out that Bioshock, the spiritual successor to the System Shock universe was not going to include any form of multiplayer CO-OP component. You would think that the developers would have included it based on the critical success of System Shock 2. But alas they didn’t and we were forced to drudge through Rapture in a solo capacity. I read recently that Bioshock had just won 11 awards for various things, interesting but did it really deserve them, there’s practically zero re-playability in the game. System Shock 2 on the other hand has mountains of replayability. If they had made System Shock 3 or even re-made System Shock 2 I’m sure it would have been even more acclaimed.

There's another article over at popular blog Infendo in which a reader asks the same question.

There's a new trailer over at Gamevideos for Army of Two.  The trailer is called Two vs. Two and shows off quite a bit of in game action of this cooperative focused title.    I gotta say graphically things look to be coming together nicely, lets hope the gameplay is equally as impressive.   The game is set to come out in ...

If you are a fan of the Smash TV style of games, than the Monster Madness series is right up your alley.  To date though, PS3 owners have been left in the dark with the previous title, Monster Madness: Battle for Suburbia, only being available on PC and Xbox 360.  But now Southpeak Games has announced the sequel is coming to the Playstati...

It is complete nonsense. We have not announced a sequel to Gears of War to Gamepro or anyone else for that matter.

After more than a few years off, Turok is back in a brand new game.   The new game has been on our list for some time for both the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3.  Of course that means the game features cooperative play.   The co-op mode is a bit like that of the original Ghost Recon on the Xbox 360.  There's a han...

I played through it tonight with a friend and I was a little dissapointed at what I saw.  Not only was the demo extremely short (it took about 15 minutes to complete), but everything just seemed very basic.  And while the co-op aspect was fun, there just wasn't much there to impress me.   It is a demo though, so perhaps the full game will provide a deeper and richer experience. 

Well folks, our first week is over and it's been a fairly successful one.  We've gone from 0 to almost 300 members in no time!  We've almost doubled our database of Co-Op games, we've added a classics section and made some changes based on your feedback!   We'll be announcing the winners of our launch giveaway later today, but no...
