We don't normally cover Kickstarter games, but sometimes a game is far enough along and is fun enough it's worth looking at. The Forgettable Dungeon is a co-op hack and slash game similar to Gauntlet, built on a voxel engine giving it a unique look and feel. It's developed by Happy Box games, a one man game development studio from Boston.
So... you wanna go on a quest or something? You'll need an arch nemesis. Don't worry, we'll find one for you. Then you can go out, do some adventuring, solve some puzzles, and maybe find some nice loot. Don't forget to check out the chickens.
Microsoft announced Halo: The Master Chief Collection at its press conference on Monday, featuring all four games starring our favorite faceless supersoldier in one convenient package. Because playing games in anything less than 1080p makes some people's eyes bleed, Master Chief's adventures have all received the Halo Anniversary treatment and been updated for our modern retinas. Feast your eyes on some of the hot campaign action from Halo 2 in this trailer.
Crack open an ice cold Old English and pour it directly onto the street. The MMORTS Battleforge is going offline permanently October 31st of this year. It's always a bummer every time an MMO closes its doors for good. No matter how many people still play in the end, there is an excellent chance that folks made allies and built friendships in game. Not to mention spending countless hours grinding for greater rewards that they will never see again.
The three words every young gamer dreams about hearing: sci-fi, space, exploration. And Hadron's Forge has them all!
Wow. It's been three months since we've done a round-up of our Beyond Co-Op Reviews. For that, we apologize. It was a pretty busy time up until a few weeks ago, but now we're back with a huge batch of reviews of the latest games that don't necessarily feature co-op play. Without further ado, here are 8 game reviews for your reading pleasure from our staff.
Since the dawn of Halo 3, Forge Mode has been a massive hit between casual and professional players to make the perfect maps for any occasion. The question these days is, however, will Halo 4’s version hold its own compared to its predecessor’s?
When Eric and I were deciding on a game to play for TWIC we ran through a plethora of titles that would work just fine but outside forces stopped us from finding that perfect title. One of us would not own a game the other chose, or when we did own the game it would be on the wrong platform. For whatever reason; call it luck, destiny, or predetermination, fate would conspire to finally find the game that we were to play together.
After months of patiently waiting for some sort of news of its Xbox 360 debut, Xbox LIVE’s Major Nelson, Larry Hryb, has finally given us some form of relief and announced the long awaited Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition release date, also including a handful of other upcoming XBLA titles along with it.
Amazon must be having a fire sale on Bethesda published co-op games. After the Brink deal from earlier this week, the retailer now has the two player co-op Action/RPG, Hunted: The Demon's Forge on sale too. How much are they asking for the two player co-op game? Just a measily $14 for the console version and $13 for the PC version.
Does it kill you a little each night you go to bed knowing that you missed just a few collectibles on your first playthrough of Hunted? Or did you recently buy or rent a copy of the game and you want to be absolutely certain you get everything you want the first time through? Well worry not, obsessive gamer (it's okay, we all have our compulsions), there's a section over at GamerVoices Guides that has you covered! Each subchapter (e.g. 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, etc.) has a detailed map where points of interest are color-coded triangles. For example, dragon tears are green. The points for crystals, dragon tears, prisoners, and corpses can be clicked on. This brings up a nice screenshot with a short description on how one reaches the area in the screenshot. Pretty useful, no? Thanks for the tip llllepicllll!
We have great expectations for Hunted: The Demon's Forge. The title has been built specifically for co-op play. Featuring two distinct characters, online and split screen co-op, plus an epic quest, does this action RPG live up to the hype? Find out in our Co-Op Review.
