The end of each month brings with it a sense of excitement as we discover what games are coming free to Xbox Live Gold members with the Games with Gold scheme. Like oft before, November 2015 sees some co-op games in the mix; the yet to be released Knight Squad and, the not so new, Dungeon Siege 3.
If you are an owner of a 360 or One and have a Gold account, hold your membership card up high as this week's sale has a flurry of vegetation and undead offers. There is money off Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare on One and 360, with an even better offer on the original Plants vs Zombies on 360. Many other co-op games are also on sale this week.
Amazon is the place to go for the most co-op game deals this Black Friday. Everything from Battlefield 3 to the Kinect is on sale for some pretty ridiculous prices. Sadly it looks like the awesome PS3 bundle sold out rather quickly.
Dungeon Siege 3 received some DLC a few weeks ago, entitled “Treasures of the Sun.” We recently got our hands on a review code for it, and for those of you who are interested, we have some impressions to share.
Some of the best co-op experiences come as a surprise and this was the case with Dungeon Siege 3. Despite the issues with the camera and co-op experience, it was still really fun game. However, it lacked something - mummies. This oversight has now been resolved with the newly released Treasures of the Sun DLC available across all platforms.
Dungeon Siege 3 is set to receive some DLC in the coming weeks, which means now is a good time as ever to head back into the kingdom of Ebb and wrap up some of those missing quests and find those rare items. Recently Prima Games contacted me to see if I was interested in checking out their offerings in the realm of digital strategy guides. In the day and age of the internet is something like this even still relevant? Once you fire up one of the digital guides, it's easy to see the production values are signifcantly higher than what you'd find on YouTube or GameFAQs.
Coming this October, fans of Dungeon Siege III will have a bit more game to play around in. A DLC pack, with the loot-tastic title Treasures of the Sun, is coming for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC. Like all good expansions, the DLC will add "several hours" of gameplay in addition to several other nice perks, all for $9.99.
Dungeon Siege 3 is here, a distinct departure from the previous games but still retaining the classic Action/RPG feel. We dive into the game's online four player co-op and two player local co-op. Does the game make you feel like a hero...or just a mule?
Dungeon Siege 3 is out this week on the 360, PS3 and PC. To celebrate the four player co-op title we've got a great giveaway for our readers. What's up for grabs? We've got two PS3 copies of the game as well as a PC copy of Dungeon Siege 3...2...and 1! That's a lot of loot!
Dungeon Siege 3 is out today on the PC, PS3 and 360 - and while the console versions controls are solid and satisfying, the PC version appears to have frustrated gamers if you use anything other than a gamepad. You know, like a keyboard and mouse. One Co-Optimus Editor had this to say:
Holy Cow! We missed two weeks of Co-Op Release Alerts. We're sure that your wallets are absolutely bristling with money, since we haven't been there to tell you which co-op games are available. Without these weekly notifications you may have missed out on games like Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters, Men of War: Vietnam, Operation Flashpoint: Red River, Red Faction: Armageddon, Magic: The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012, and The Adventures of Shuggy. Wow. Looks like a lot of stuff came out while some of us were absorbed with E3. Luckily, the rest of the Co-Optimus staff was on the ball and delivered awesome co-op reviews for Lantern, Red Faction, and Magic. We even have an Op Flashpoint cooperative review coming soon!
The first commercial for Dungeon Siege 3 has just hit the internet and it leans a bit on the lighter side of gaming. The commercial showcases two gamers taking on the bad guys in a real world/video game cross over. Best of all, they co-op the whole way through. Obviously that's a big focus for Dungeon Siege 3 with both couch and online co-op support, though the commercial takes a dig at other games that have recently been omitting the couch mode.
