Isaac and Carver double-team A new batch of screenshots forDead Space 3have been shipped out by Electronic Arts. The images show bits of a cooperative mission, Marker Containment, where Isaac is helping Carver to deal with visions of his dead family. I’m pretty down with thecooperative elements ofDead Space 3as they’ve been described. The only problem that I can see is that I know I’d want to experience the story in single-player first as Isaac before then playing as Carver for a second, cooperative run....

Preview: Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 3

At the press thingamajig on Wednesday, Bandai Namco showed off a little bit ofDynasty Warriors: Gundam 3, and told us what’s so awesome in the latest version. I actually did my high school senior project onGundamand model-making, so my ears tend to perk up whenever someone mentions Newtypes or the Universal Century. Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 3doesn’t look like it makes any huge departures from the franchise’s formula — you’re a guy in a robot suit and you beat up a ton of other guys in robot suits, why change that?...
