If there is one thing I truly dislike about Ghost Recon Wildlands its the writing. The whole thing feels a bit too sophmoric for me. Perhaps I'm just getting curmudgin in my old age, I'm sure some folks find jokes about wooden cat legs being used for unspeakable acts as hilarious. Good news! If you'd rather not hear about the radio DJ's silly antics, you can turn them off thanks two a new update.
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and TT Games have unveiled a new trailer for LEGO CITY Undercover which showcases a newly added two-player cooperative mode. I know, I know - it's a LEGO game, of course it will have co-op. Apparently though this is the first time friends and family to fight can fight crime in LEGO CITY together.
Climax Studios today released a new video showing off 12-minutes of gameplay from their upcoming title RiftStar Raiders based on a presentation by Marc Manuello.
There are defining moments in any co-op player's life and one of those for this humble writer is the awesome Super Nintendo game Secret of Mana. Imagine taking the best Final Fantasy games from the 16 bit era, splicing in a good amount of A Link to the Past and then adding 3 player co-op! Now Nintendo Switch players can relive my joy, but so far only those from Japan.
At PAX East, I had the very pleasant experience of an in-depth interview with Howard Tsao, the Team Lead for Guns of Icarus: Alliance (henceforth, Alliance). We discussed everything Alliance has to offer players as well as the trials and tribulations of developing Guns of Icarus and its ambitious expansion.
At long last, PlayStation 4 users can experience man's greatest achievement: sending goats to space. Soon, they can bounce their virtual hooves around in low-grav environments, eat space trash, and just experience the things that typically happen when you put goats in atmospheres without oxygen.
Solstice Chronicles: MIA was announced back in August and since that time has found its way onto crowd funding platform FIG. The game is currently just a few dollars short of its goal, so hopefully by the time you've read this its been fully funded.
The list of Backward Compatible games for the Xbox One is ever increasing with classic title, after classic title. Sometimes the games are not quite that classic, but fun to have anyway. Co-Optimus still loves you Madballs in Babo: Invasion.
So, you've beaten Sniper Elite 4. You mowed down wave upon wave of Nazis and presumably killed Space Hitler, thereby saving Earth. Or whatever. What's a grizzled sniper to do when there aren't any bad guys left to hunt? Well, you could spend the rest of your days contemplating the meaning of life and death in the context of your murder-career, or you could wait patiently until more bad guys inevitably crop up.
Early on in Halo Wars 2, I kept getting the feeling that I had lived this all before in an almost dream-like way. I played through campaign mission after mission, trying to shake the feeling and find my 'Ah-ha!' moment that would set the game apart, letting me tell my friends and associates of the special moments I wanted to share with...
At PAX East last weekend, I went hands-on with asymmetrical stealth co-op game Hacktag. Created by Piece of Cake Studios (a studio completely dedicated to making co-op games and composed of industry vets), Hacktag impressed. My time with the game left me wanting to play and improve more.
As the prophecies foretold, Ghost Recon Wildlands continues to be the topic of discussion this weekend. We just can't seem to get those cartels and their wacky leaders out of our heads. Here's hoping our carefully planned takedowns go hilariously awry.
