It has been confirmed that Modern Warfare 2 will have a co-op mode (Special Forces Mode) and taking a card from Call of Duty: World at War, the split screen co-op will have the ‘the black box’ style. It is unconfirmed whether or not there will be online co-op but get ready to say bye to a good portion of your shared screen. On a lighter note Modern Warfare 2 will be running on InfintyWard’s latest edition of their engine (4.0) so we can enjoy the best graphics yet in the series.

Uncharted 2 – Beta Review

thedarkbean — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 04:38:04 +0000

Three words… FUN AS HELL. I don’t usually play games on the PS3, but if I do they are usually exclusives. I never got a chance to play the first Uncharted besides the demo but the multiplayer in Uncharted 2 is extremely fun. I have to say that I am extremely picky when it comes to multiplayer and for me the mechanics have to be up to par with my standards. Uncharted 2 has pulled that off as well as giving you a leveling system along with perks and the ability to earn money (even though I can’t seem to figure out what the money is for yet, unless that is just how you level up). In the Beta there are two modes; Deathmatch(team) and Plunder. Team Deathmatch is obvious while Plunder is a Capture The Flag type mode only instead of a flag there is a treasure. Picking up the treasure will slow you down but you have the ability to toss the treasure to a team mate or closer to a team mate. Some of the perks include extended clip, increased blindfire or aimed accuracy and hold more ammunition. I would buy this game just for the multiplayer and I would presume they will add more online modes once the game is released. Uncharted 2 Beta – Thumbs Up.
