We've raised a good chunk of donations for Extra Life, but we have quite a ways to go! Help us reach our goal of $3,000 raised for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Most of our team has started their 24 hour gaming marathon this morning, and we're going to need donations to keep us going!
While Sony had a fair number of surprises for its fans at the PlayStation Experience this past weekend, including the reveal of The Last of Us: Part 2 and Windjammers making its way digitally to PSN, the one game that was perhaps the biggest surprise was Knack 2. While the original has its appeal and drawbacks, it sounds like Japan Studio has heard much of the criticism leveled at the game and put that to work to make the sequel better.
After months of speculation, Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition has been officially announced. This remastered unique FPS/action game from 2011 will be storming onto PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One this spring with a few new updates and additional content.
While we got a little bit of info about Mass Effect: Andromeda's revamped co-op mode earlier this week, it appears that's about all we'll be getting for now. There was a new gameplay trailer shown off at The Game Awards last evening, but no mentions of the co-op or how it will tie into the single-player campaign. So, for now, we'll ...
During last night's Game Awards, Microsoft and 343 Industries showed off a new trailer for the upcoming Halo Wars 2 that put a little more focus on the Brute, Atriox, you'll be going up against in the campaign.

We're participating in the Extra Life Game Day celebration, when most of us will be attempting a 24 (or 25) hour marathon to raise donations for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Let's introduce the team!
The Eurogamer Expo (or EGX) was held in Birmingham, England a little over a week ago and Rebellion was there to not only show off the next Sniper Elite title, Sniper Elite 4, but specifically to show off the co-op. While we've heard that the game will support two players throughout the campaign since the initial announcement, this is the first time we've had a chance to see that co-op in action.
For the fifth straight year, Co-Optimus is gathering a team of co-op fans, and making a difference for kids across North America. We're participating in Extra Life, a charity that benefits Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, and we need everyone's help to raise donations. The annual Game Day celebration is on November 5th, so the time to sign up is now!
Fans of Flying Wild Hog's revamp of Shadow Warrior won't have to wait too much longer for the sequel, Shadow Warrior 2. The team has revealed that the title will be coming to PC on October 13, 2016.
During PAX West this past weekend, Gearbox Software unveiled one of the projects they've been working on for the past few months: Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary Edition World Tour. Yep, they're bringing back the Duke.
We've been hoping that the campaign wouldn't be the only co-op offering in Gears of War 4, and it looks like the Coalition will not be disappointing us. The developer released a new video yesterday that shows off some of the features of what they're calling "Horde 3.0."
