Army of Two... Two?

Official Army of Two site updates to tease something, and that something is probably a sequel?

BRO LET'S KILL DUDES AND MAKE AIR GUITAR NOISES YO MAN DO YOU LIKE ROCK?!!?!? BEEEEEOOOOOOOO
BRO LET'S KILL DUDES AND MAKE AIR GUITAR NOISES YO MAN DO YOU LIKE ROCK?!!?!? BEEEEEOOOOOOOO
There's been talk of an Army of Two sequel going around a bit these days, but Shacknews has something slightly more concrete, as they've noticed that the game's official site has been updated and the page's source has things like "the definitive third person co-op shooter is back" written in it. That's a rather bold claim, wouldn't you say? Especially considering the definitive third-person co-op shooter shipped last week. Wait... maybe we both need to look up the definition of "definitive." I'm pretty sure it just links to a picture of Marcus Fenix at this point.

There are also references to ARMYOFTWOTFD in the page code, all of which appears like it's been built to link somewhere else, once that somewhere else has been announced and published. Chris Faylor at the Shack is thinking this means the game's subtitle will abbreviate to TFD. Hmm. Let's see if I can crack this wicked code.

  • The Final Day
  • Try Feeding Dogs
  • Two Faced Devil
  • Tribeca Film Depot
  • Tools Face Desperados

Wait, I've got it...

The Fistbumps Double


You heard it here first. Twice as many fistbumps in Army of Two Two. First person to tell me that fistbump is two words gets fistbumped in the FACE, bro.

As for the concept of the game existing? Not my first choice on the "EA games I'd like to see more of," but if they fill the dialogue full of more aimless discussion of the Wu-Tang Clan, I'd play it.

I cant wait for this, I completed the original entirely through with a friend it just happens our play styles fit together perfectly. I run about like a mad man and annoy NPC's and he lines up shots and acts "tactically".

Day one purchase probably :)

I'd go with Army of Two and a Half.

Or Army of Two: Two Fucking Dicks would suffice.

I found Army of Two just terrible in so many ways. Was hoping a game like that didn't warrant a sequel.

The best part of that game was the air guitar button. Friend and I rented the first and I would run up to him during a firefight and start it up, so great.

War of Four! War of Four! they need to call the mulitplayer War of Four, because it quite literally is.

Anyway, i loved Army of Two, regardless of its crappy length, and lack of weapon sound effects...and their dodgy rate of fire. Customsing them was just too fun.

I think the expectations for what clever/witty name they come up with for the game are gonna be so, so, so much higher than any gameplay expectations.
