I can't see how this is a bad choice at all. Co-op is always fun.

Valay5135d ago

My thoughts exactly. Co-op was requested in the first game, so it's nice to see it make it in this time around. I'm sure I'll be playing co-op for many hours.

Chubear5135d ago

isn't it obvious by now this will likely be a multiplat game seeing as Natal and Move are on the horizon? I guess it's own as a Wii title but I'm just saying.

SpoonyRedMage5135d ago

Chubear have you been paying any attention to The Grinder? That's why no on cares if it's multiplatform and I'm actually doubting it or the time being. Otherwise Tournament of Legend would have been multiplat too wouldn't it?

Or maybe you're perfectly aware of this and you're just trolling..... yes it's probably that.

ChickeyCantor5135d ago

@spoony,

Nope dont think he is trolling.
They actually think Move and Natal will make every wii game a port by definition.

Grinder is a topdown shooter because HVS knows they cant compete with the other FPS games.
The conduit would become that or some puzzle game for PSN/XBLA XD

If it's confirmed to have full online and offline co-op then sweet.

Co-op does make games a lot funner.

If it is just for the invasion mode or multiplayer then it's a bit of a let down but still cool.

SKGamer5134d ago

Co-op is friggin awesome, and makes ok games better and great games fantastic.

Take Resident Evil 5 for example... level design and boss battles definitely weren't as good as 4, but all of the co-op in the campaign, extra chapters and mercenaries drove the replay value through the roof.

And my dad is a huge mercenaries addict...

smashly5135d ago

Improve the online Nintendo and you might have something here.

Bagogames5135d ago

Take ANYTHING in the world and add co-op and it can only get better!

Well...sorta

I guess it does not really matter to me since I am an offline player :)

Are First Person Shooters On The Downfall?

GamerFitNation: irst person shooters were the craze in the beginning of this current console generation. Through the years however, we have seen how this genre has culminated into a popular genre with games like Call of Duty, Battlefield, and other classics like the Halo franchise. When you look at the amount of first person shooter titles available now it seems that every system has a flagship first person title. Sony had Resistance/Killzone, Xbox has Halo, and Nintendo whether you like it or not had The Conduit.

Definitely, Halo and COD are so overrated.. and over saturated the 360 when we should have had quality titles from Rare. MS shafted us bad.

PS4 and PC for me next gen.

WiiUsauce4084d ago

are you kidding me? how is Halo overrated? it deserves every bit of praise it receives, because the games are so well made and highly polished with excellent multiplayer and amazing single player campaigns.

Myze4084d ago

Yeah, certain games that refuse to stand out will hopefully see their downfall. There are still plenty of good FPS games/series though. Far Cry 3 and Borderlands 2 being fairly recent examples. Both great games, but not standard FPS mediocre/bad games.

I would include Crysis, but that series is steadily getting worse, focusing far more on graphics and selling their engine than atmosphere, gameplay and story.

The first Bioshock game is still one of the best games of the generation. Bioshock 2 was still good, but just not as good. Infinite looks like it will be great, and really excited about it.

Until Destiny is released this Winter.

It will make COD & Halo look meaningless.

Nope,there are a select few quality ones.

cervantes994084d ago

I hope the simple point and shoot variety is on the downfall, but the type like Deus Ex I hope we see more of.

Fyflin4084d ago

Deus Ex was great, I'm enjoying Dishonored at the moment too. A lot can be done with first person games (remember Mirror's Edge!), they don't all have to feature running and gunning everything that moves.

Alos884084d ago

"It might be people’s desires and preferences that might be declining but the quality of FPS’s are getting better as the generation pans out. Hopefully Bioshock Infinite will change all of that"
I know you didn't mean it like that but the way that was phrased made it sound like you wanted Bioshock Infinite to STOP the FPS genres increase in quality.
