The demo of Army of Two: The 40th Day was released yesterday on Xbox Live and PSN and so I decided to capture the Xbox 360 version with the help of Miguel, a French Gamersyder. The game is rather fun to play even though the graphics seem a bit outdated overall and the Aggro system causes some oddd AI reactions at times. I don't know if it will be enough to keep players interested but it is worth a look if you are into action packed coop games. Two more videos will come later this morning.
Update 2: Last video is up.

Just like the 1st game, I'm more interested in Kane and Lynch now because of the story, even if the co-op tactics aren't as elaborate.
From what i have played of it the graphics are alright, but the controls are a whole heap of clumsy.
American posturing at it's best though
However, the ppl that complains at the graphics; i hope you dont mean the original looked better? Because in that department its clearly a step-up. Looks much better; a more warmy look, more natural looking textures and nice looking lighting effects. And I'm suprised by how much this games seperates from other Unreal ENgine 3-games... it's usually the same generic look in all those games, but this looks smoother and warmer, and the textures doesn't look exactly the same. :)
Anyway, I didn't say there wasnt exceptions, just that many UE3 games look the same with identical ground textures and that kind of thing... But Mirror's Edge, for instance, truly looks fantastic - mainly because its stunning art style. But many UE3 games tend to look the same and suffer from the same shortcomings within the engine (choppy framerate, texture pop-in, flickering/pixelated shadows etc.) But ofc there are some UE3 looking more unique... however neither you or I can know how much they've modified the engine to reach that result. =)
