Xbox Live Gold members know the drill. Each week, a handful of games goes on sale for anyone with a shiny gold membership. You see, you buy, you play, easy. This time around we've got a whole lotta Lara for not a whole lotta loot, but we happen to be a bit partial to the co-op friendly Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light.
Some serious sales going on this weekend at that little service called Steam. So many games, such large discount numbers, it's kind of overwhelming. The massive Square-Enix publishing catalogue is available for as much as 85% off, but there are a couple of outliers with co-op that warrant some attention, too.
Continuing the Games With Gold promotion on Xbox LIVE, the month of January will feature one of the most well known females in gaming, Ms. Lara Croft! Experience one the finest co-op titles in her series for free with Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light.
If the sixteen co-op titles coming out this month aren't doing it for you, why not check out a few older games on the cheap? The new Xbox Live Arcade Deal of the Week has five better-than-good co-op offerings for 50 to 60% off their regular price. Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, Bionic Commando: Rearmed, Bionic Commando: Rearmed 2, Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2, and Warhammer 40k: Kill Team are all on sale. Follow each game's link for co-op details.
We've heard rumblings of this sort in the past, but now it's pretty hard to ignore. Speaking to Official Xbox Magazine UK, Crystal Dynamics has confirmed that not only is there no sequel in the works for Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, but nothing further is planned for the sub-series in the future. For a game that had one of the best co-op experiences in the last several years, that's very sad news indeed.
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is not only one of the best downloadable co-op games this generation, but arguably one of the best full stop. 2 gamers can play in local or online co-op over a seriously impressive number of levels, but even they come to the end. That's unless you take part in this week’s...
Wow. I'm glad I joined PlayStation Plus earlier this year. The $50 annual membership fee paid for itself in less than a month. The Instant Game collection offered a dozen free PSN and PS3 games in June. Now there's even more good news: Renegade Ops, Gotham City Imposters, and Pac-Man Championship DX have been added* to the collection of free titles.
The Steam Winter Sale is still in full swing and today's items have just been revealed with the tick of 1PM Eastern. It's a quick and easy way to bolster your PC gaming collection without having to drop a lot of coin. Available today are plenty of good co-op games for some ridiculously low prices.
There's a lot of co-op love in XBLA's Deal of the Week sale! Four out of the five games feature co-op. Hard Corps: Uprising, X-men Arcade, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time Reshelled are all 50% off. These four games have an average score of 4 out of 5 in our Co-Op reviews. Comic Jumper, and excellent single player game, is also for sale for half price.
The Xbox Live Deal of the Week offers a great co-op game at a great price. Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is 50% off. You can pick up the two player co-op title for 600 Microsoft points, which translates to about $7.50. We gave the isometric action/puzzler a 4.5 out of 5 in our Co-Op Review. Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light also happened to win our coveted Best Downloadable Co-Op Title of the Year Award. A slew of DLC is available for half off as well.
The other day I was asked what I thought of Dragon Age by one of my buddies. I sat for a moment and finally admitted “I have it, but haven’t played...” Why would someone do that? I have a strange quirk where I don’t like starting games unless I have time to finish them...
Five new downloadable packs are now available on Steam for Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light. This little isometric gem won our Best Downloadable Co-Op Game of the Year award for 2010. The first pack actually comes as a free title update and adds the titular characters from the Kane and Lynch games.
