    I have Livelock for both PC and XBox One - since I can't post a review for the xbox yet (seems metacritic is not keeping up with release dates correctly..tsk tsk) I am including it here. So Livelock is a co-op based top-down shooter.. guess what... co-op is broken! lol. Once they fix this embarrassing QA oversight, my review will be better.

    Livelock's worst bane is the abundance of heavily armored enemies whose health bars take a lot of time to chew through.

    If you’re in the mood for a decent top-down shooter with some solid ARPG elements in character building and load-out tweaking you could do a lot worse than the budget-priced Livelock. If you’ve got a good friend or two to play with, even better.

    Livelock is more linear and simple than other sci-fi top-down shooter influenced by Diablo, but it's also one of the best in terms of visual design and pure fun factor.
