About Army of Two
Army of Two is a third person shooter game released by Electronic Arts in 2008. It has both single player and two-player co-op play and is available for both the XBox 360 and the Playstation 3. The game is primarily focused on co-op strategies, featuring two mercenaries that fight through war and turmoil. The game is best played with another person, but has complex AI for single player campaigns.
This game was one of the first games to be region locked for multiplayer play, meaning that US players cannot play with people in other regions. This is for two reasons - to prevent lag due to distance, and also because the Asian copies of the game were censored to not allow shooting of bodies that are already dead.
A sequel for this game called Army of Two: The 40th Day was released on January 12, 2010.
