Assault Heroes 2 coming to XBLA
10
Though it's been on the radar before thanks to an early ERSB review, Assault Heroes 2 had never been an official XBLA title; until now. IGN posted a preview and video of the game and it already looks to be improving greatly on the original in a whole host of ways. Wanako Games is bringing us the sequel to the original hit with the community and feedback in mind, implementing changes such as putting more emphasis on co-op and creating more varied three-dimensional levels. The on-foot sections of the game have also been fleshed out, to raise them to the same level of quality as the rest of the game. Though the core gameplay and visual appearance are almost identical, those things weren't exactly broken to begin with, and should remain as engaging as ever when Assault Heroes 2 hits later on this spring.

If by "enhanced co-op", they mean "online co-op that actually freaking works" this time... I'll be all over this.

Looks good. Hopefully co-op works from the start and not have to wait for a patch a year later like the first one.

The patch for Assault Heroes 1 that fixes the multiplayer problems has been up and available for months.
