 short game June 12, 2008
this game is awesome and the graphics are great but the game is absolutly way too short. Im not a hard core gamer, so when i can beat a game in a couple of days, something is wrong there. i just cant believe they expect us to pay 60 bucks on something that only lasts for a couple of days. the games is awesome like i said but it could be the best game that is out there and still not worth it if there is no challenge. the story line was very much like a movie and that is what kept me going through out the game but at the end i didnt even kill clide or dawlton the computer did it in a automatic screen play. That pissed me off cuz if i want to play a game that usually means that i want to beat it too. it ended like a bad movie to me. i paid 30 bucks for this game so im not too mad, but i would never pay full price for it, it is just not worth the money to me.
Good game with good overall tatse aka Average! May 31, 2008
I waited a long time inorder to really give a good review but not even worth my typing to do so. This game is not a bummer or great, it is average. It is so hard to play games like COD4 and Uncharted, then turn back to games like Army of Two. This game sits in the middle as far as graphics, sound and overall quality. There is no point going into great detail just to give you the same conclusion: AVERAGE. By all means please rent this game or buy at a super discount if you just want to add to your collection.
 awesome for co-op! May 23, 2008
AO2 was awesome as a co-op game. Played all the way through on all levels in split-screen with a buddy. Many nights of fun here. I recommend it.
Army of Two is a Kick Azz Game! May 22, 2008
A friend and I have always enjoyed the great first person shooters, espcially in a co-op play. Since I have the PS3 he came over and we looked for a game to buy or rent. Army of Two was our choice. We tried to rent it and nearly got out of the store with an Xbox 360 version. Then we headed to Gamestop and found it used. $50.00 latter we are playing the best co-op game for the PS3 thus far!
Check your GPS by clicking on select and it will help you find your way if you get lost. Wait to buy upgrades until you have over 40,000. Stocks and barell add-ons are great. Pimping my guns though, give me a break, what a waste!!!
A Sixaxis controller should be truned on in options to help improve your game play while skydiving. Makes it much easier, but it is senstive. Carfull not to slam in the wall too much.
I cant't wait for AOT part 2 comes out. Love the game.
So-so May 14, 2008
I had mixed expectations of this game at first... I was really excited about it because it's one of the few multiplayer games on PS3, but then after reading some bad reviews I was a little apprehensive about buying it. It turns out to be not as great as I expected before I read the reviews (the huge emphasis on co-op play is overrated), but also not as bad as some people described. I played this game with my bf in split screen mode, and we never tried single player, so this review is based on co-op mode with 2 people.
Graphics: Pretty good as long as you have an HDTV and HDMI cable for the system. If not, then it's not so great.
Camera: The camera controls took some getting use to, but once you get use to it they're bearable. I had some trouble with the camera while doing co-op stuff like using riot shield and back to back (but maybe that's just me).
Shooting: The shooting (many people complained that it is nearly useless) is actually not as bad as I expected. It's just that the enemy will keep taking cover and sometimes take blind shots at you, resulting in you not being able to kill him in a few shots.
People who complained a lot of the gameplay and shooting probably played it in single player and had trouble working with the AI. I drew all the aggro while my bf sniped, and when he had the aggro I could aim without being shot at. If you strategize and actually aim you can take enemies down with a few shots assuming you've been upgrading your weapons, but some guys will definitely run up shooting at you and force you to melee.
Co-op stuff: This part of the game is a really good idea, but hugely overrated by the developers...
-There are riot shields, but sometimes I don't bother because when facing a lot of enemies it will break under heavy gunfire and leave you in the middle of the room.
-Back to back shooting isn't something you have a choice in... you can't do it anytime you want, you can only do it when the story allows you to.
-You can step jump your partner up a high wall, etc. but only in certain spots where the option pops up (think the top of that trailer makes a sweet sniping spot? o wait, you can't), and the option usually only pops up when it's part of the story to move onto the next area.
-One really nice co-op feature is the first aid. When your partner goes down you can drag him to safety while he shoots at people, then heal him.
-Weapon swapping.... the only time we ever used this was in the beginning when we had the same guns and he ran out of sniper bullets, but then once we bought new weapons we never used it ever again.
Customization: Again, I think highly overrated.
-You can't customize your armor, only your face mask. There are only 3 different types of body armor that automatically gets upgraded as the game goes on, but none of them really match the different face masks and there is no option to change colors or anything...
-Gun customization is pretty fun, but limited. When I read about the gun customization, I was thinking you can pick your favorite gun and put some insane grenade launcher-type upgrades on it, but some of the guns only have one or two options (sometimes not even improving performance, just appearance).
-You also couldn't see what you can customize on each gun until after you buy it, leading to some "nooo why did I buy that" moments. I just didn't really feel the urge to spend a lot of money on guns that suck compared to the one I was using after I got the most powerful one with the most ammo and accuracy.
-I will admit that being able to "pimp" the guns out was awesome because it increases your aggro (and looks pimp) and I was the bait most of the time :P.
Misc. stuff:
-All the ammo looks the same! The good thing is that the bullets are only specific to they type of gun (primary, secondary, or special weapon) since you can choose from so many different ones. The bad thing is that you sometimes need a certain type of ammo while all your other ammo is full and you pick it up thinking it's the one you need and it's not. Then your partner gets bummed out cuz it's the type of ammo that he needed.
-There are some "Heavy" foes that won't go down with gunfire from the front, so you have to pull aggro and have someone sneak around back and shoot him. These guys were the most fun, especially after I got a rocket launcher for my special weapon and blew him up with one shot from the front :). makes me giggle hehe.
Overall we had fun playing this game, but would never replay it. As a matter of fact, after we beat this game once we traded it in at Gamestop for $22. So bottom line is don't buy it, rent it.
