Army of Two

This Game is better than I thought it would be, and worse...
I love the way multiplayer worked out, and the AI in singleplayer is smarter than several of my friends, but certain things were promised that only worked out in a VERY loose sense.
The Weapons are good and combat is more fun that Gears of War(which is the game with combat most like it), the issue is some failure, I pull the trigger to fire my rifle and the gun never fires, or it delays until the guy hides, rather annoying, but not truly game breaking.
They promised a huge array of guns, there are about 10 in the main category, 8-ish in the sidearm category and 6 or so in the Sniper/rocket launcher category.
Huge? Hardly, but small still as an issue, the real problem in the weapons category is that they are all the same. There are about five Assault rifles, Two LMG's 2 Shotguns, a Gatling Gun, and Two Grenade launchers.
Now obviously they aren't all exactly the same, but if you upgrade them all to max the stats are not very different.One gun is Way accurate but it doesn't really show up in use, nor does the fact that my gun is silenced really keep the baddies from spotting me.
That was...disappointing but the game was still Great.
Now comes a small issue that just seems pointless, that is the way they make the shop work, you could build up your original gun, or , In the Space of one level, work up the money to buy the best gun and upgrade it right off, this means that 4 out of five weapons in the game are not needed, rather than a sort of balance where each gun is good for one thing.
All this sounds big, but it pales in comparison to the fun of the main game.
I was surprised to find that the masks that you saw in the movies and trailers, were only the first you get, you can unlock ten masks for each character, and a lot of them are really creative.
The plot is very interesting, the Characters were hilarious, and the bad guy was a fun to watch as any I've seen,(without spoiling anything, he is extremely good at killing).
I like the way they give you an opportunity to visit the gun shop in between battles so that you don't have to wait till the end to make your big dream gun.
As for multiplayer competitive matches, they are so so, basically you and a friend go against another pair to complete some sort of objectives in a 20 minute match, unfortunately the servers are busted, as I have completed one match in 4 days, the games cannot go on if someone leaves, and the matches jsut aren't that great.
But this game is about Co-Op and it does that right, Oh so right.
If EA actually supports their game, (with DLC and patches) I can see this game becoming Huge.
I give Army of Two an 8.5 out of 10
