We were extremely disappointed with Takedown: Red Sabre when we reviewed it last fall on the PC; however, developer Serellan and publisher 505 Games have been trying to make things right since then. They've deployed extra free copies to owners, AI improvements, and multiple patches and free DLCs.
Wayforward's bro-op brawler Double Dragon: Neon hit XBLA and PSN in the fall of 2012, but PC owners can finally get their knuckles dirty with their very own Steam version of the game! The best part is it supports both local and online co-op out of the box. If it had a box, of course.
The LEGO series has become a staple element of many Co-Optimus reader's gaming diet, with their hours of 2 player local co-op entertainment. However, until now we have been familiar with the properties the games are based on. Thankfully, the same can probably be said of The LEGO Movie Videogame, the film just made over $69 million in its first weekend!
When free-to-play access available for a game, there's little to no reason not to give it a go at least once. Gamers who own an Xbox 360 currently have the opportunity to try out the open beta for Warface, now underway!
We all know how smart octopodes (that's right, we're being pedantic) can be. Their curious brains, slimy tentacles and squishable bodies let them get into all sorts of mischief under the sea. But how clever does an octopus have to be to live on land? To wear a suit? To have a wife and be a father to two children? It's some clever hoodwi...
For my money, there is nothing out there that meets Child of Light for graphical awe. The first impressions enchanted me in a way few games do, and has refused to let me go ever since. The visuals alone would have kept me begging for more, though combine that with combat influenced by Grandia 2 and April 30th needs to get here faster. This little title swoops in at $14.99 for the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and the PC.
As a Saint, you've worn plenty of different hats over the years. Whether it's taking fashion tips from anime characters, embracing your inner caveman, or taking Talk Like a Pirate Day way too seriously, every Saint has always kept to one unyielding rule. There ain't nothin' in this world more important than money. You know. Dosh. Scrilla. Benjamins. Chedder. Dolla-dolla bills, yo.
This month in MMO Co-Opportunities, we take a look at Wildstar. Unlike other times Wildstar has been featured, this time we have some very preliminary impressions of general gameplay and features experienced in the first handful of levels....
Grand Theft Auto 5's Online mode was not without its initial hiccups, but it has since settled down into being a fun mode that still needs a little more co-op to keep us happy. What is great news for those looking to hook up with online pals is that the cap for crews has just increased from 300 to 1000 members per team.
Activision has sent along a small infographic which showcases the Skylanders franchise from its launch in 2011 until the near future in 2014 when a new game is being teased by the original creators, Toys for Bob.

With the advent of new technology, plenty of games force you to make ridiculous yoga poses for its own amusement, but most of these rely on personal training, a la WiiFit and Xbox Fitness. I'm still on the fence as to if those count as actual games or not, but I digress. What if there was a game which allowed you to utilize the pose of a friend's real life body in order to provide platforms in that exact shape to traverse across a ravine?
What is this game that seems to have taken the entire staff by storm. Bravely Default is a tactical RPG for the 3DS and it seems to have gotten its claws into a lot of the crew. Part of the crew plans on tackling some Trine 2 as well - so co-op will not go unplayed.
