Army of two 4oth day first impressions.

January 13, 2010 by ravenpilot 

So I picked up Army of Two 40th day yesterday. I have only put in about 2 hours into it so I can’t write a full review yet. However I can give you a quick rundown/first impressions of the game.

Well the game has definitely changed for the better from the first one. With a lot more customization, slightly better story, moral choices etc. You ca even go to the Army of Two website and get a hold of a mask/armor editor. The camera to me feels a little odd to me with over the shoulder 3rd person kind of view, but I can get used to that.

It also really seems like you’re really only supposed to be playing with a friend either local or over xbl (or psn depending on your console). They have a solo option, but it just seems a lot more bland.

The weapon customization is nice because you can do it nearly anywhere, so you’re not waiting for checkpoints like in the original. The customization is more of the same, just a few more options.

The Moral choices are pretty cool, I am assuming that it can lead to multiple endings. Also I guess it effects what kind of weapons you will have access to.

So far so good, I really enjoy it. If you’re not a fan of the original I would at least rent this one to give it a shot, enough has changed that you can tell a difference for the better.

The first one wasn't GOTY but I really like it. I'll definitely check this one out. Does it still use the same money for missions scheme?

I played through a few missions of the first game, and the demo of 40th Day and I decided that they weren't for me. I find nothing appealing about either game to be completely honest.
