A new trailer has been released by 2K Games for the upcoming The Darkness 2 which unveils for the first time the new “Vendettas” feature, a brand new co-op multiplayer experience.

Each mission in Vendettas has a team-focus with four unique characters to play as, all of whom have their own unique weaponry and Darkness powers.

Check out the trailer and see what you think. The Darkness 2 is set to be released next year on February 10 in Australia for Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC.

Ahh Microsoft, we thought you were the cool one! It is so disheartening to see you follow Sony and EA down the path of crapping on your customers.

Yup, that’s right. Despite all the cool new features in their latest Xbox update, Microsoft also included some fine print that most of us probably skipped over. Hidden in the 18th paragragh, their new Terms of Service prevent us all from using a class action lawsuit against Microsoft. Check it out below and then be sure to send a letter to Microsoft Corporation, ATTN: LCA ARBITRATION, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, letting them you reject this stupid stuff.

Supergiant also states that: “We’ve received a ton of requests for different kinds of items, so just because we’re not offering all that other stuff now doesn’t mean we’ll never do it. We design all our own merchandise, so we’d much rather release a smaller number of high quality items over time than try to do everything at once.”
