"The Headliners" VS "Content Warning"
"The Headliners" VS "Content Warning" Headliners definitely has a lot better premise and setting. It's not just a generic, spooky, creepypasta, lovecraftian plane where you goof off over and over again. It's a lot more comparable to something like Cloverfield or Gantz. It's in a very urban, big-city environment with friendly civilians and military running around, and that really sets it apart from something like Content Warning or Lethal Company. However, The Headliners really needs video recording (or at least a few seconds of audio attached to each picture?) in order to pull ahead of Content Warning. There's only so much fun that you can pull out of "Oooo, look at this picture of you in front of a monster! Lol" over and over and over again. The videos that I've saved from playing Content Warning with a buddy are some of the most treasured and memorable moments I have on MP4. The pics from Headliners?... I forget about them completely ten seconds after I see them. It's a really good game, but it has the potential to completely stomp Content Warning and Lethal Company in 2025 if they choose their next updates very carefully. 7.5/10 for me.

I have played a lot of co-op games
I have played a lot of co-op games. This one scratched an itch I've haven't been able to scratch for a while. Imagine me walking through Times Square, boots on the ground, first responder to the impending invasion. Me and my buddy are grabbing photos of the action. > Soldiers are fighting monsters > Civilians are being picked off the streets. > Carnage everywhere you look! > Suddenly, Kaiju level alien comes in and wipes out everyone and everything in it's path. I'm taking pictures and dodging debris, grabbing the "money shot". Suddenly an entire bus comes flying into my friend, blood and guts litter the streets, his limbs scattered everywhere. So what do I do in my moment of panic? I take a selfie with his corpse and made a run for it to the helicopter. Highly recommend this game!!

Lost three friends, both legs, and my camera
Lost three friends, both legs, and my camera. Got the shot. Worth it. This game is complete nonsense in the best way. It’s like Content Warning and Lethal Company got drunk, invited R.E.P.O. over, and all three started a band made of screaming aliens and exploding cameras. You run around with your friends, trying to take the most insane, gory, ridiculous photos while everything around you is actively trying to kill you—or amputate you for fun. One minute you’re laughing at your buddy falling in a pit, the next you’re clutching a blurry photo of a tentacle monster eating a vending machine and screaming “this better go viral.” Out of all the “team of idiots in danger” games, this one’s easily my favorite. It’s just so damn wacky. Everything feels like it’s 5 seconds away from falling apart, and somehow that makes it perfect. 10/10, would lose another limb for the perfect shot.
