Get Stabby With Your Friends in Assassin’s Creed III‘s Online Co-Op Mode
Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood and Assassin’s Creed: Revelations both had competitive online multi-player modes. Leaping into costume and stabbing other players (in the back) is nothing new for the series. But working with your fellow Assassins, instead of against them?

UncategorizedI Have Four Important Things To Tell You About Borderlands 2
After draining the life out of Borderlands 1, every single downloadable content and all, I’ve always had a sneaking suspicion that Gearbox would steal my heart with its sequel. But I don’t think even I was prepared to be blown away by how much they’ve outdone themselves in the several demonstrations I’ve played so far.…
