DESCRIPTION
Two former U.S. Army Rangers, Elliot Salem and Tyson Rios, have turned to the lucrative yet deadly business of mercenary work in EA's Army of Two. As hired guns for a private military corporation, players must utilize teamwork and tactics to survive while behind enemy lines. In addition to traditional co-op moves such as providing cover fire or lifting up a partner to reach higher ground, players will throw guns or ammo clips to their partner, administer first aid, and even link body armor together for defensive maneuvers. The cooperative element is further enhanced with the shared "aggro meter," allowing more aggressive players to attract the enemy's focus or "hate" while the other is free to perform support maneuvers. Dozens of weapons can be customized, enhanced, and shared, from attachments such as laser scopes and silencers to detailing like chrome and gold plating.
Army of Two features multiple international locales, including China, Somalia, and even Miami. Vehicles such as jeeps, tanks, and hovercrafts are also available throughout each mission, with one mercenary driving and the other shooting. Solo players can issue voice commands directly to their AI-controlled teammate via headset. Teammates can be ordered to advance, hold position, regroup, and more, with both aggressive and defensive stances available as well. Online support is included for both cooperative play and for multiplayer-specific games. The latter supports four players (two teams of two) in competitive matches that involve eliminating terrorists, rescuing hostages, or destroying specific items. The goal is to complete the objective before the rival team, earning cash along the way to spend on both weapon and armor upgrades. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide

“Army of Two is a third person shooter video game developed by EA Montreal Studio and published by Electronic Arts for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 consoles. The game is centered upon two mercenaries fighting through war, political turmoil, and a conspiracy from 1993 to 2009.
The only high value to this game is it's co-operative strategies, the main feature, to accomplish the game's goals. Although the game has an AI "Partner", your partner is only programmed to follow your strategies. This would be great if it were a turn-based RPG, but it's not. All your doing is basically having everybody shoot your partner while you pick the enemy off.
One of the things that I love is the timeframe storyline takes place spanning over 16 years in different regions like Somalia, Afghanistan, Irag, Aircraft Carrier, South China Sea, China and back to the USA. It is believable that your characters are highly trained mercenaries.
Favorite things about this game:
- Teamwork
- Customizable Weapons
- Mercenaries
Online: Expect to play only U.S. Players because of the Game's region-locked online gameplay.
The title has a sequel called Army of Two: The 40th Day.
Recommendation: Rent”
