Customer Reviews
Do not buy.
Although I knew from previous reviews that the amount of single player gameplay was limited, I bought this game to play online. I finished the campaign mode in one evening and was looking forward to joining friends online that had bought the game recently for the same reason. However, we could not connect. I contacted the EA support line and they told me that the servers are down - that was a week ago. I would say that £30 is fairly expensive for one evening of gameplay and we're going to trade this back-in as there is no date from EA for the servers being available.
SHORT BUT FREAKIN SWEET
I bought AO2 a while ago and was well impressed. Im still having fun thanks to the online gaming, despite the glitches.
You follow tyson rios and elliot salem, a pair of armored, double hard mercanaries with fully custom weapons. The graphics are stunning as is the gameplay. You can sneak around enimies while the other player distracts them and permorm melee attacks - normally a skull fracturing headbutt among a few others. Also theres the weapons ranging from pistols and SMGs to grenade launchers and miniguns, all customiseable and pimped out.
The story mode although short is great 2 player and can be played through a few times before it gets boring. The online game if youre patient is fantasic, but massively let down by crappy EA server, 'cross region play not supported' comes up when i try to play my mate who lives less than a mile away, which is just stupid. Its not all bad because 'quick match' is still pretty extreme and can be played 2 player split-screen online.
Overall Id recommend this to anyone PS3 or 360. There better be a sequel out sometime soon.
Short and Sweet.
If you like 3rd person shooter this game is a real good buy. The graphics are good, the campaign is great and even better if there is two of you playing however, the one downisde to the campaign is that it is just not long enough in my opinion. it just needed more locations and levels to fight your way through. But apart from that minor down side its a great game. The fact that you can pimp your weapons help each other over obstacles and interact with your team mate e.g. hit him for being useless is great fun. Overall I give it 7.5/10. A Good Buy!
