Last year we checked out a MOBA by the name of SMITE, a game that allows up to five players take on groups of AI-controlled bots in a few different modes. We played it for a little bit and did some silly stuff. The title was a PC and Xbox One release only for some time, but the PS Blog has broken news that it will be coming to the PlayStation 4 soon enough.
You'd think that the Venn diagram for fans of lolita, Japanese goth, and SHMUPs wouldn't show a huge overlap, but as it turns out, the three combined genres command enough of an audience to justify Deathsmiles' extensive journey to PC.
Around this time last month we heard there would be some DLC on the way for widescreen, side-scrolling, giant fish ship shooter DARIUSBURST Chronicle Saviours. The new content, which is still unnamed at this point, would include three levels and ships based around three classic Taito games: RayForce, Night Striker, and Metal Black. All of this should be making its way to PC and PlayStation 4 around March 17.
The magic of the apocalypse is how it brings people together. You and your buddies can hold up in some abandoned hotel with a fully loaded arsenal of AK's and a cooler full of Bud Lite. Or, you can team up to traverse the wasteland of major cities, scouring for loot and wasting anyone who looks at your haul with covetous eyes.
The "Awakening" DLC for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, which features four new multiplayer maps and the "Der Eisendrache" co-op zombie mode, released earlier this month on the PlayStation 4. For players on the Xbox One and PC, you'll only have to wait another week to dive into the content. The DLC bundle will be available to you starting March 3, 2016.
Local co-op arena brawler Wondershot arrived on Xbox One and PC last Friday, and is set to launch tomorrow, February 23, on PlayStation 4. The title supports up to four players locally and features a separate co-op mode where you and your teammates fight off waves of foes.
Last fall we heard news about the new game from Soldak Entertainment, Zombasite. Set in a world overrun by zombies after the inevitable zomb-pocalypse, players can team up to slay the undead, get loot, and negotiate between groups of survivors. A recently released video of the title highlights some of the action players can expect.
The Co-Opticrew is getting real dangerous this weekend. Not only are we delving back into poorly lit underground chambers (as we have each weekend for about a month), we're also taking on two of humanity's greatest threats: fire and disease. In all honesty, both are pretty well contained, with the former to the Wyoming wilderness and the latter to New York City, but that certainly isn't stopping us. You point out a (virtual) pocket of danger that needs to be (artificially) dealt with, and we're there lickety split (metaphorically speaking, that is. I mean, we usually get around to it in a timely manner).
Last Friday, the Friday Awesomely Live Co-Op crew finished off Zonaco and suddenly felt an overwhelming feeling of emptiness as we realized we'd finished Monaco. Then our friend Bakken Hood pointed out that there's another campaign that goes by the name of Fin. That's "Fin" as in the French word meaning "The End," not "Finn," the handsome new hero of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Although, a Monaco campaign based on a Storm Trooper gone rogue, releasing a Resistance fighter from captivity, and escaping from a Star Destroyer together would be pretty bad-ass.
We're just so close.
Time to create another account! Nintendo is gearing up for its first mobile app launch (and its new console, hush hush), and the first step is to introduce a multiplatform account system to replace the current fragmented one. Registrations are now open for... drumroll... Nintendo Account!
Life experiences are often at core of a developer's inspirations for making a particular video game. When Shigeru Miyamoto started gardening, he was inspired to make Pikmin. For the development team at 8 Points, their everyday lives surviving in the cold wilderness Yakutia has been one of the primary sources of inspiration for their first ...
