Burning Rangers gets lost 2P Co-Op mode restored with downloadable patch









Quote
Players can control both playable characters: Shou Amabane and Tillis, in a way resembling the limited co-op mode in Sonic the Hedgehog games with Sonic and Tails, like Sonic 2, Adventure, and Mania, in which a second player can control the other character, but will need to remain on-screen at all times. The second player cannot wander too far away from the first, as there is no split-screen to keep track of both characters. Fortunately, Bo has added a teleportation function for player 2 to warp them right back to player 1’s position with the ...

‘No Xbox’ Trends as Fans Hit Out at Marvel vs. Capcom Collection Skipping Microsoft’s Consoles



Quote
