It's a new year and that means a fresh batch of titles to review. While there wasn't a whole lot at retail, the downloadable space seemed loaded with titles the Co-Optimus staff needed to play. Whether it was large DLC like Bad Company 2: Vietnam or an arcade title like Raskulls, we've got plenty.

When I wasn't waiting in line for Co-op games with the CoG group or Co-opticrew on the PAX East floor, I was scoping out a few non-co-op games to fill my time. Two of those, which I enjoyed enough to go back for seconds, were Raskulls, and Shank. We got a brief preview of Shank at PAX Prime last year, but no hands-on time for this Shadokat. Raskulls was just a convenient thing to play while the others got busy with a nearby Crackdown 2 booth, which was a pleasant surprise to play
