If you've never played an EDF game before, it's hard to describe really. The game is intentionally "bad" - like a B movie. It's campy, over the top, and pure popcorn action. We've seen a few iterations of the game since the original launched early on in the Xbox 360's life. Last year's Earth Defense Force 2025 saw several additions to the series, but it seemed that the older consoles simply weren't capable of handling the game.
For this installment of MMO Co-opportunities, we'll be looking at the co-opportunities of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns (henceforth, HoT). HoT is the first expansion to Guild Wars 2 (GW2). While GW2 is now a free-to-play game, players must purchase HoT to access much of the content it provides. The additions and changes it adds to the game...
The more recent LEGO games have had large hub worlds that players can explore once they have unlocked enough of the game and LEGO Marvel's Avengers does not look like bucking the trend. TT Games are so proud of their new open world that they have even released a trailer highlighting the enormity of it.
When the planets align just right, and the kids get to bed on time, the Friday Awesomely Live Co-Op crew wind up with a bunch of extra gaming time. A few weekends ago, we had an opportunity to try Don't Starve Together during a free weekend thanks to Steam, and we even had time to continue our Dead Island Riptide campaign. While Don't Starv...
Rainbow Six has been synonymous with co-op since its inception. A game designed around close quarters tactical combat, players are put in the shoes of a team (or teams) or Rainbow Six members to fight terrorism around the world. Over the years the series has evolved from its roots on the PC which featured a more strategic approach, while the later ...

If you've been holding out on picking up Dying Light, whether from budgetary concerns or a crippling fear of the undead, you're in luck. February 9th is the world-wide release date for Dying Light: The Following - Enhanced Edition which is a clear front runner in the prestigious "Longest Title of a Video Game in 2016" award. Coming in at $59.99, Enhanced Edition provides "The Following" expansion pack, the Bozak Horde Mode, Cuisine & Cargo mode, Be the Zombie mode, and the Ultimate Survivor Bundle, complete with all other updates. It's the most zombie-littered parkour experience to date.
With all the Xbox and PlayStation and even Pocket editions of Minecraft floating out in the world, one system is conspicuously absent: Nintendo Wii U. You'd think the most family friendly console would be a haven for a game like Minecraft, but so far the system has been voxel-less. All that changes December 17th.
Last night the Co-Opticrew took down some big game. Facing overwhelming numbers of prehistoric creatures on a futuristic world, we went all Jurassic Park and checked out Guardians of Orion, the new twin stick shooter from Trek Industries.
For Tabletop Co-Op today, we are taking a look at a board game based on a beloved movie series. In 1984, Ghostbusters was released to theaters, and became one of the biggest comedies of all time. The titular theme song raced to the top of the charts. Blending comedy with light horror elements and great special effects, the film would become a major...
Howdy! The Co-opticrew is pretty scattered this weekend in terms of gaming, but that's nothing new, because we're each individual humans! We certainly aren't clones grown in a lab by a mad co-op obsessed doctor and then raised in a compound for 14 years with a Double Dragon arcade cabinet as our only form of entertainment. And we definitely aren't kept in a warehouse outside of Des Moines, Idaho and forced to report on the latest in co-op games with a 1' by 1' window as our only source of natural light. That would be crazy!
Be ye rat exterminators, loot fetishists, or rat... looters, come hither and rejoice! The first DLC pack for Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide, "Sigmar's Blessing", is now available for your consumption. Not only that, but you don't even have to spend a single one of your hard-earned crowns to access it. The developers, Fatshark, have stated previously that their post-release plans revolve around alternating packs of free and paid DLC, so it's nice to see that they're trying to start off on the right foot.
