This reminds me of that great 50 Cent game - but not self aware enough to be fun
Blood in the Sand was better than it had any right being. A competent TPS at the very least, which was more than most people expected of it.
Anyone who doesn't like Blood in the Sand is no friend of mine.

Just picked my copy up. Going in blind other then seeing the launch trailer and knowing its not the main guys from the first two games. I have a co-op buddy who has played these with me from the start so 
Hoping I have a more exciting time with the campaign then I did with Gears Judgement. Man that was so dissapointing.

You know as well as I do that EA didn't spend any money marketing this game, so clearly they couldn't have paid him anything.

This game has been released? I haven't even heard any news since the debut trailer. Shocked.
But seeing the direction they took away from the very first game (which was so awesome)...I'm so disappointed. EA WHY?!!

Yeah got it last night with my uber Bioshock edition.
Haha...Good point.

Yeah I've a coop buddy who I've played the first two with so we're renting this and trying to finish it within the trial online period
The 40th Day was pretty fucking awful though, we spent most of the time taking the piss out of the game, so this would have to actually try to be worse than it.It's just amazing that they made such a stupid concept work in their game and make it so much fun to play. I don't dig it as much as Army of Two Two but it didn't make any significant missteps, either. Well executed.

I just put two laser sights on one gun.
I have never heard of this site, but they absolutely loved the game. EA sending out checks?

this game is tight. my gun is fuckin ridiculous. i don't think you can fist bump anymore tho.. and i can't figure out how to play as Big Boi.
i guess i can always play it through again. after one of the missions, while me and my bro were leveling up and all that, we just heard these two dudes talking in spanish. i don't speak a lot of spanish, but it didn't seem related to the game at all. no new characters were introduced before the checkpoint or anything like that. they were arguing with each other while the level-up bonuses were being displayed on the dark screen. it eventually escalated to them screaming at each other in spanish and we were absolutely losing our shit by the end of it. i don't know if it was a bug or what but it was fuckin classic.

Had some fun playing this co-op but captured this hilarious floating/shooting head glitch!

Ha had the same problem last night playing co op with my bro but I could not see it to record but he snapped a pic of what he was seeing. The game is fun but so very unpolished. And have you ever seen a game load up with so few splash screens? EA gave zero credit to anyone it seems.
I still think for co op this game is a fantastic ride but asking 60 bucks for the content in this game is really pushing it this time around.

Got my copy yesterday and so far it's on par with what I expected. This equates to me actually loving the game. The Army of Two series has been a guilty pleasure of mine since I "blinged" out a gun in the first one.
I wasn't sure if GAF had heard, or realized, but you can blow heads and other limbs clean off. Can't wait to jump back into it today after work.

Why are people saying people are getting paid because someone gave it a good review? This is a great co-op game. It does co-op really well.
That's another thing this game does well. The customization in this game is insane.
You can't even have more than three attachments in COD.

Because a lot of people on GAF are cynical as fuck.
Tin-foil hat video game conspiracy theorists generally type the first thing that comes to mind without thinking the whole process through.

This game is def on par with the other two games. While I think it might possible be the best, it also feels the least polished if memory is serving me correctly. Still... for dude bro action movie fest like experiences, Army of Two is still the king.
Love the destruction in this one as well. Also I know they said this one was going "serious" but the funny dialog and banter is still there.

I just put up a video where I flip through all the gear and weapons in the game if you are curious. Just a quick look at things and I only talk for less than a minute

Looking like 5 -7 hours at most. No online multi. Only reason to replay is to check out the different paths or upgrade/unlock all your bling

Gears of War isn't really an interesting co-op game, it's just there. Is there still fist bumping and other funny commands in there? Back-to-back, etc?
Seems like online pass code for the Overkill Edition [PS3] doesn't work for us Australians at the moment.
Goddamn it EA.
[Edit] Seems to work now go figure.
Anyway, after playing for a couple of hours I am enjoying it. Great mindless shooter for an evening with mates and beers.

There are some questions I have about this game. I can't seam to put any attachments on my sidearm. The other thing is when I at scopes to my assault rifles I can't figure out how to look through them.
Maybe I'm missing something, anyone else notice this?

I never thought I'd hear someone express regret that they are playing Bioshock rather than Army of Two.
Which is a clear "Oh God, EA master lords, please fund another game." To which EA responded with an authoritative "No."
There are no attachments for the sidearm.
The assualt rifle when you add holographic site it does not actually let you look through the site it only increases the accuracy of your weapon but if you add a ACOG scope you will actually look through the scope when you pull the left trigger on the 360 controller.

Well that sucks...
Okay, that makes sense, I haven't tried the ACOG yet. I'll give it a go tonight.
I knew I could remember an attachment letting you look down sites in one of the previous titles. I thought pistols had attachments in once of those games too.
Take a look at the pistol selection screen and down at the bottom it says attachments, it's just strange.

Sadly no, though the humor is still there. You now basically build up a rage meter and once it's filled you go all out unlimited ammo, invisible and your bullets do way more damamge to the enviroments. Pretty fun actually. The agro meter is no longer in the game as well but you can still agro enemies towards you while the other can get around.

yeah no back to back is a real bummer. and no fist bump.. don't get me started. me and my bro were literally taken-aback.. a few times.. trying to figure out how to bump fists in this game.
my gun is out of control.. i should have taken a picture of it for the thread. i've played at least 4 hours so far.

The back to back shooting in the first game's demo is actually what sold me on buying it. Shame to hear it's been removed.
