Story
Set a few years after the events of the original Army of Two game, Army of Two: The 40th Day features the continuing adventures of millitary contractors Tyson Rios and Elliot Salem. With the help of Alice Murray, their mission coordinator, they now run their own paramilitary business, known as TransWorld Operations (TWO). Working what seems to be a routine mission in Shanghai they find themselves surrounded by a force of competing private military contractors intent on running amok in the city. Will Rios and Salem survive? Will they be able to make a few bucks off a bad situation? All they have is each other to rely on.

Gameplay
As with the original Army of Two, and as the name of the series implies, gameplay in Army of Two: The 40th Day revolves around co-op combat tactics necessary to survive specific and general combat situations. Players can team up with an AI companion in single player mode or a human friend in two-player co-op. Co-op tactics are made aware to the player in what is known as the co-op playbook. Unlike the original game, which in some instances limited the use of some tactics to certain situations, in The 40th Day, players have access to all tactics. Implementing these against opponents revolves around the game's "Aggro" system, tallied in the heads-up-display (HUD) and which measures the amount of attention a team member draws from opponents for certain tactics, leaving the other team member in various states of freedom to launch coordinated attacks as chosen. In addition to this change, players are also faced with moral dilemmas in the game, including choices presented to one of the players on a team that the other must bear the consequences of, as well as the decision as to deal with and/or defend civilian non-player characters (NPCs), who can be killed in the game.

Multiplayer Modes
In addition to its single player campaign, Army of Two: The 40th Day offers a robust, region-free, multiplayer experience that provides an array of unique features for up to 12 players at a time. This experience consists of four modes, including, three brand-new modes that provide a variety of objectives for partners to battle over. The four modes are:

  • Co-op Deathmatch - An intense battle of survival between up to six two-player partnerships. Only by mastering teamwork and partnership skills will players earn the most points and come out on top.
  • Control - Sets players partnerships as TWO or FDI rival faction members as they aim to capture strategic locations in the city. Work with your partner and faction to control the most points within the time limit.
  • Warzone - Is an all-out objective-based battle between TWO and FDI forces. Complete the most Destruction, Assassination, VIP, and Infiltration missions with your partner and faction to crush the opposition and win.
  • Extraction - Pits a team of four players against a series of unique enemy waves as they move from point to point in the ruined city. Players must strategize as a unified team to combat the different forces of the 40th Day Initiative while trying to get out alive. Extraction is a bonus mode that will be available for free one month after Army of Two: The 40th Day is released, or at launch for players who pre-ordered.
Weapons Customization
Army of Two: The 40th Day features the most advanced weapons customization ever seen in a video game. Using money earned in-game for your contracting duties you can adapt your arsenal and firepower to fit the obstacles you face. With malleable attributes like handling, accuracy, ammunition capacity, and power, coupled with a huge variety of parts and the ability to make customizations at any time in the game, the possibilities and impact you can make through customization are virtually limitless.

Key Game Features

  • The Best Co-op Experience with All-New Moves and Tactics - Army of Two: The 40th Day has been built from the ground up with a focus on an incredible cooperative experience. The result is a bigger, better, more organic and immersive co-op experience that lets you put your best two-man tactics to use whenever and wherever you want.
  • An Epic Story - A carefully orchestrated series of mysterious catastrophes is dragging Shanghai, China to the brink of ruin, and now the Army of Two must fight their way through ravaged city districts as they try to beat the odds and uncover the secret of the 40th Day.
  • Explosive Game Modes Focused on Unique Co-op Play - Take your partner online in explosive multiplayer modes, each focused on unique cooperative play.

4.0 out of 5 stars Army of Two short!, January 14, 2010
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Army of Two: The 40th Day (Video Game)
I was having a hard time choosing between this game, Darksiders and Bayonetta and I think I made the right choice. For starters this game is alot of fun. The graphics are really good, picture perfect. The gameplay is good also lots of duck,cover,and fire. The AI seems way more responsive and better than the last game with different commands you issue your partner,Also you can switch from a right angle OTS to left angle OTS witch is really helpfull for those enemies who are hard to see on either side of the screen. One thing I have a problem about this game just like any other action game that has come out for the ps3 and xbox 360 is the lenght of the single player campaign. I've played the game for 3 hours now and I'm already on the 3rd chapter, I checked my trophie menu on my ps3 and counted only 5 chapters in the game. This is the reason I play rpg's because you actually get your $60 dollars worth. Videogame companies spend too much time trying to make the online gaming experience so great that they make the regular playthrough so short. Not alot of people can play online so they can only hope that the game is long enough to make it worth there while and money.I have not played online yet so I can't tell you if it is good or not, from what I've read it is alot of fun. Oh yeah I didn't mention the weapon upgrades, there are plenty of awsome weapons witch can be upgraded with different components that you either find throughout the game or you get depending on some situation choices that you make during your game. So besides my one complaint about the game beng short, it is a really fun game and probably even better if you play with a friend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better Than The Original ARMY OF TWO, January 12, 2010
By TYE JR "CAKEMAN23" (Milwaukee, WI USA) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Army of Two: The 40th Day (Video Game)
Although, I haven't had this very long but, from what I've played is extremely satisfying this game rocks. I love the weaponry and cutscenes and dialogue already in this game. The storymode so far in this is more interesting than MW2, that gives it great single and co-op play, the AGGRO system in here very sharp and pleasing, you should love faking surrenders and faking death in a hard place,the graphicss are good but not as good as MW2. This game does however bring back something I love which is BDA (bullet damage action) if you're using the right weapon and give someone a headshot you blow their head off, which really makes a shooter worthy of M ratings. I played all of the online multiplayer modes and they're all great, they strongly enforce teamwork which is what this type of game is all about. Oh yeah cannot forget about the weapon and mask and armor customization I designed my mask and armor and they're just what I expected them to be you should be pleased too. Now for my ratings STORYMODE 5stars, GAMEPLAY 5stars, GRAPHICS 4STARS, MULTIPLAYER 5stars and CO-OP 5stars. This one kick-ass game you won't regret. ARMY OF TWO: THE 40th DAY 5stars

3.0 out of 5 stars Borderline good; better games out there though.., January 23, 2010
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Army of Two: The 40th Day (Video Game)
Never played the original so this was a new experience for me and won't be able to comment on comparisons to the first one. AoT: 40th Day is 3rd person shooter specifically designed for co-op play, online or split-screen. The premise of the game is to traverse through Shanghai killing bad guys while making moral decisions along the way that will affect the outcome of the game and the relationship with your partner. The game focuses on drastic customization of your weapons (e.g., adding a AK-47 barrel to an M4, or a screw driver bayonet to the end of your shotgun) and the ability to draw fire from the enemy in order to get your partner to tacticlly flank them. There some other features like feigning your death, mock surrenders and syncronized sniper shots.

Overall the game is okay, but it seems the bad leveled out the good. The game does NOT save after you customize a weapon - only after checkpoints; if you waste 4-5 minutes toying with your weapons and die...you have to do it over again. Speaking of dying (which will happen a lot), if you die in a fight that required a cut scene you have to watch the cut scene everytime you restart - CANNOT BE SKIPPED. Pretty annoying. The bosses are cliched; armored gatling gunner...flame thower guy with weak point in the back. The customization is cool, but some of the stuff is so ridiculous it seems pointless they added it: bubbled camoflauge? soda can silencer? Depsite the stats of some weapons, they basically seemed the same to me. Lastly, this is the only game for the PS3 that ever frozen.

As mentioned this game is decent, but there are way too many other games out there like MW2 and Uncharted 2 that just seem to make this game feel like a waste of time. Will not be conducting a second playthrough.

Pros:
- Extremely detailed; added a cool scope to your AK?...it's in the cutscenes.
- Nice cut scenes on outcome of moral decisions moments.
- Some nice weapon customizations.
- Fun co-op, takes some tactical decisions to be made as opposed to rushing a situation.

Cons:
- No auto-save feature after weapon customization. Annoying.
- Cannot skip cut-scenes. Even more annoying, especially if your stuck on a boss.
- Some dumb weapon customizations; who wants a flowered painted RPG?
- Weak focus on melee combat.
- May freeze on you; could be faulty copy though.
- Only 3 pistols? WTF.
