Magicka, the 4-player co-op game (that doesn't take itself too seriously) where you play up to 4 wizards kicking ass is apparently out in a few days! 25th of January to be exact. It's made by Paradox Interactive who are pretty cool, and the game looks like heaps of fun. I'll probably buy it unless I read some horror stories about it first.  Check the launch trailer Or the funny "explanation" vids on how the game was delayed |

Interesting, and Paradox are good, but i'll have to see the mechanics before buying. I'm all good with co-op but with RPG's it can be problematic. |

It's not an rpg at all I think, more like Diablo (and probably much less complex) than anything else.

don't worry man, it'll be over before you realize it. Maybe. Assuming the world doesn't devolve into massive civil war. |

Think i'm liking it so far, and i'm not even getting the co-op experience.

I played the demo like J, and it's pretty cool. There are some issues with the controls you need to 'get' first, but once you're rolling they become pretty smooth. Most importantly, the game doesn't pretend to be serious in any way, funny as shit sometimes. It's maybe a good thing we haven't tried the MP yet, since there appear to be massive problems with it. Many people couldn't even connect (!) to each other to play a game...they released a 500 MB patch on the first day after release. So yeah, if we do get around to magicka (which I hope we will!), we're best off waiting for a sale and a month or two until most pressing issues are ironed out. http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/01 ... h-already/ |

Haha, yeah ok, but 10 € for a bugfest isn't worth it.  I'll definitely organize a party on here once the bugs have been tackled (and perhaps a sale is on  ) because it does look awesome.

yea, let me know. I have no clue what the bug squashing status is. If and when they fix it, I'm game. |

I do have a friend who has been playing this game and he says he really enjoys it. I have been encouraged to get it and play co-op. Always a good thing.

Awesome. So that's already one person we'll probably have aboard! |
