Best of EA Studio Showcase
Army of Two
Studio: EA Montreal
I had my reservations about Army of Two when it was first announced. Some of the screenshots since its announcement weren’t too impressive and it just seemed too ambitious of a project. The first original IP from EA in years would naturally present doubts right?
Well, I must say that it seems my doubts and any others might have been too quick to the trigger. This game looks and plays incredibly well. The characters and environments were so crisp and the gameplay mechanics were surprisingly easy. You’ll immediately think Gears of War when you see this game up close. It uses a similar cover system but visually I’d give the nod to Army of Two at this point.
That’s right. Army of Two might be the best looking action title on the Xbox 360 when it releases.

It looks like you had fun, Deac. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to attend (San Fran. is my old stomping grounds too – I miss it!)
