First:
Army of 2 - Get it, play it, love it. The game is just awesome. Designed for co-op and can even co-op story mode over Xbox Live. The graphics are fantastic, the storyline is great, and the dialogue is hilarious at times.
Double sniping at the same time is a great feature, the physics in the game is awesome, and the melee combat that can be performed just rocks.
By far though this game's best attribute is how much detail they put into making the game really for two people. You have to work together to get any of the missions done. You can congradulate, or berrate your partner in game with animation which is funny. And the back to back scenes where it puts you and your partner back to back faceing off enemys comming from all sides is just spectacular.
The game does lack a few things. Like you can't actively take cover as you could in Gears of War, or even Rainbow Six Vegas. You just basically get to duck behind some obstacles. The other, and it might just be me failing at it, is that I have a hard time controlling the camera well enough to get targetting cursor on my target, especially while chasing after him. The last thing that it lacks is a sequel. I know this one just came out, but dammit they need to put another one out with a quickness.
Second:
Whats the word on Ace of Combat 6? Any fun? I have that comming soon I think in my gamefly account.
