podcast January 27, 2023 Co-Op Gaming Cast Episode 9 – Generation Zero All about Generation Zero. We’ve LOVED playing this game over the past few months. Tanks, Hunters, and Runner (or as we like to call them, “doggie”) robots galore in this open-world co-op survival shooter.
podcast January 27, 2023 Co-Op Gaming Cast Episode 8 – Revisiting Borderlands 3 and Mayhem 2.0 We played through BL3’s main quest once when the game launched. This spring, we picked it up again during COVID quarantine. We’re loving the changes Gearbox made. Now you can skip videos, gold loot is more abundant, and there’s plenty of content other than the main quest. Mayhem 2.0 is fantastic: the game’s combat sequences ...
Reviews, Video Games January 27, 2023 Star Wars Battlefront II: Review EA's Lootbox-Free Battlefront Game Is Part Shooter, Part Fighter, And Completely Mesmerizing If a time traveler visited me when I was in college and told me that in the year 2020, I would be eating Star Wars “Rebel Crunch” yogurt while wearing my favorite Chewbacca shirt, I would have called him a liar and a lunatic. In those days, my favorite movies were Stalker, Yojimbo, Santa Sangre, ...
podcast January 27, 2023 Co-Op Gaming Cast Episode 7 – Star Wars Battlefront 2, SCUF Vantage, and More Since we made our last podcast, we’ve played some Code Vein, Starlink: Battle for Atlas, Far Cry, Battlefield V, and Battlefield I. We briefly discuss those games, and then spend the majority of this podcast discussing Star Wars: Battlefront II. We talk about all the things that make Star Wars’ 20v20 Capital Supremacy the most ...
Reviews, Video Games January 27, 2023 Five Reasons We Uninstalled Ghost Recon: Breakpoint Breakpoint Is Not the Game We Thought We Bought, but We Couldn't Get Into What it Is, Either This year at Co-op Gaming Dot Info, we spent the dog days of summer playing Ghost Recon: Wildlands. We loved that game. We never wanted to stop playing it. We even played its DLCs. You can imagine how hotly we anticipated Breakpoint’s release. In fact, we dreamt of playing Ghost Recon indefinitely. We wanted to ...
Reviews, Video Games January 27, 2023 Four Reasons We Uninstalled Dauntless A Lack of Inspiration With a Wealth of Microtransactions Made Us Dislike Dauntless Here at Co-op Gaming Dot Info, we usually review games we’ve relentlessly played for months. For a game to keep our attention every night, it’s usually awesome. We wanted to give more coverage to games that we tried and decided not to play—games that didn’t give us a moment’s hesitation when we uninstalled them to ...
podcast January 27, 2023 Co-Op Gaming Cast Ep. 6 – Borderlands 3, Remnant from the Ashes, a bit of Anthem, and a bit of Breakpoint After finishing Wildlands, we cycled through a few different shooter games. We couldn’t bring ourselves to do more than one playthrough of the interminable Borderlands 3 videos, especially after trying Remnant: From the Ashes (highly recommended for great Dark Souls style co-op play!) First impressions of Breakpoint left us disappointed, as it appears Ubi trashed ...
Reviews, Video Games January 27, 2023 Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands: Review Simple Tools, Objectives, and Systems Give Players Carte Blanche in This Cerebral Game. Highly Recommended. Ghost Recon: Wildlands is the most pure and refined two-player video game we’ve ever played. It’s fitting that the game’s subject matter is cocaine—playing is a chemical-like experience where you’re locked into each moment, and clearing your head as the future unfolds is a struggle. Focus. That’s what Wildlands demands of its players, and the ...
blog, Pigeons March 10, 2023 The Dodo was a Dove; The Passenger Pigeon’s Coo Sounded Like Sleigh Bells; and The Original ‘Stool Pigeons’ Were Live Birds With Eyes Sewn Shut—Read All About the Horrors Man Bestowed Upon Gentle Doves in This Excerpt from Vanished Species If you’re a pigeon fancier like us at Co-op Gaming Dot Info, you’ve probably imagined how loveable a giant dove, let’s say 50 pounds, could be. He and his flock would roam the earth like buffalos, belting out enormous coos and dancing in the horizon, their silhouettes like pom-poms beating in harmony with the breeze. ...
blog, Video Games January 27, 2023 We’re Hating on Stadia: Google Turns a Blind Eye to Bandwidth Caps and U.S. Internet Infrastructure This is the year 2019. We stream movies and TV shows in 4k, back up photographs to the cloud, take part in video conferences when we work from home, and live-stream video updates about our lives. Oh, and we play video games. We play them online with the help of clunky antiquated hardware—an Xbox, a ...
