  • Abstract:  I'm as much a fan of the old action movies as anyone. Movies like Lethal Weapon, and Die Hard, and Dirty Harry are timeless treats. The popcorn flicks today, however, are often a pale imitation by comparison. For some reason, the charm of watching an ordi...

  • You and your partner will lay waste to thousands of 40th Day mercs. Despite what is wrong with the game, it’s still going to be fun whether you’re alone or with a friend. Customizing is fun and will keep you experimenting for quite a bit with differen...

  • they feel too linear and routed. On the audio side of things, this game is in dire need of a patch. While the voice acting (little that there is), is good, but it is barely audible. I have a mid grade 5.1 surround system, I should not be struggling to...

  • The first Army of Two was a tricky game to measure. On one hand, it was merely a Gears-style third-person shooter starring two meat-head protagonists who fought through identikit Middle Eastern villains while high-fiving and knocking their heads togeth...

  • Abstract:  The further I got into Army of Two: The 40th Day the more I dreaded writing this review. I’m normally able to see the positive in any situation no matter how bleak but this latest sequel to one of my favorite action games of 2008 was really testing th...

  • Abstract:  I’d been looking forward to EA’s Army of Two: The 40th Day since it was announced. I enjoyed the first game for what it was, and despite its flaws, had a pretty good time with it. After hearing about the endless list of improvements EA Montreal was mak...

  • Abstract:  Few people would have rallied for the return of high-spirited frat-pair Salem and Rios after the mess the two made in their chest-bumping, fist-pumping, mass murdering lads tour through the first Army of Two back in 2008. But return they have, complete...
