As far as 3rd person shooters go, this game is definetly reminiscent of Killswitch, and I only view that as a good thing. IMO, Killswitch was one of the most underrated games of the last gen. Especially when you consider the potential this premise would have by adding co-op, there is plenty of reason for excitment over Army of two:2. It has that arcady feeling to it - the game pits you against untold amounts of generic bad guys who actually sport some decent AI. Unfortanetly, the game is not without its flaws, and they really make the game feel lackluster.
In an effort to flesh out the co-op aspects the game employs an aggro system, which basically makes the AI go after which ever player is doing the most damage. This helps ensure that both players have a vital role in the action. The game gives you a few optional tasks, and some mission objectives that actually require the players play with the aggro system in mind. The problem is that it is too easy for one player to overpower the enemies, you can go through 80% of the game just ignoring aggro. There are a few bossfights where it does play a factor, but those are few and far between.
Then you get all these scripted moments where it takes both players to achieve a task, whether it be to open a door or climb over a fence - this really adds nothing to the game and is pretty pointless. Its just a weak attempt to seem like you are using teamwork.
The gun system is pretty in depth, you can custumize and bling your guns out, and even add stats to them. That's another issue I had with the game though, its really not that imparitive to supe up your guns, although it is fun. You can easily go through the game with the guns you start out with, and the ammo is plentiful.
Kevin F. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Many of the best Xbox 360 games are playable on the Xbox One and Series X|S consoles. Some even with some enhanced visuals and performance. Unfortunately, not every game from the Xbox 360 library has received this glorious feat of being able to be played on more modern Microsoft consoles."
The Spider-man games will never happen. The xbox 360 Marvel Ultimate Alliance games have a better chance of happening than Spider-man titles but won't happen. The Xbox One Ultimate Alliance games delisted years ago
Yeah... you can totally forget about those entries that got delisted because of licensing issues. Those are not happening.
The team behind the best Playstation 3 emulator, RPCS3, has shared a new video showing some major graphical improvements that has implemented in the latest version of the emulator. As such, the team showed God of War 3, The Last of Us, Army of Two, Skate 2 and more games running on the emulator.
I need to build a PC that can at least play PS2 games. I have a working PS3 and I don't mind using it to play PS3 games.... but since Sony doesn't support BC anymore.... you have no choice. The PS4 pro, should allow emulation for PS1 and PS2 games....
I'd like to se Sony do this on their own, and come out with a proper digital marketplace on PC. Consoles will always be around in some form, but PC is the future.
there's a better method here:
it's called buying a dirt-cheap PS3, and playing the games natively on the console.
We all have game franchises we love so much that we don't care what others
think. Then there are games that the majority just agree shouldn't exist.
Sometimes it just takes one of these to kill our most beloved series.
It Takes One Game to Kill a Franchise
Street Fighter V and SoulCalibur V come to mind.
True, and it depends on what the devs learn from the experience whether or not the franchise can make a comeback. Or even make it's first "comeback". Like with Nier. Nobody cared about the first one, but it's hype all around for the sequel :p
Sometimes a game can kill a franchise even before it starts, if it doesn't perform as well as expected. The Order 1886 is an example of this.
I want to say socom with socom 4 as it was by far the worst but confrontation had its issues also. However compared to socom 4 confrontation was amazing. Still not socom 2 but it worked.
