This looks to be the next great co-op game. I can say that GOW and the way it handled co-op and achievements was next to flawless. I really can't wait for this one to come out. Even the option of tossing ammo to a buddy sounds awesome.

Additionally, your co-op gameplay partner can be switched on-the-fly between a human or AI collaborator. Again, EA wants to stress that "Co-op is no longer a mode, it's the game."

Looks like the next Gears of War. I love the Co-op on GoW, and this isnt looking disapointing at all yet.

It reminds me of those 2 Dudes ( Now Deceased ) that robbed that bank in California ( ? ) I think, wearing the Full Body armor with the Armor pierecing rounds ala Heat. I've been keeping my eye on this game for some time now.

I just watched a video for this game on the new OXM disc... looks like it'll have some humor blended into it for good measure (a la GoW).

In the video, one of the guys slaps the other on the back of the head and said something along the lines of him "not being like Terrell Owens". As a matter of fact, they were pretty ruthless on each other throughout the entire video... was like watching two of the stooges (on steroids) with machine guns. The cover system in this game looked like it could very well be just as fluid as GoW's or R6V's cover systems...

Looks like I'll have to pre-order...

LMAO. Yeah I downloaded the trailer from XBL a few days ago along with GRAW 2. He gutt checked the guy and said, "who the hell you think you are Terrell Owens?" I crack up everytime he smacks the guy in the back of the head and says, "WHAT THE **** ARE YOU DOING?!". The gameplay and cover system looks like GoW and R6 just like Creep said. I put it down as one of the games I'm looking forward to in the 360 General Discussion Section the other day. It should be a good game.

I always love seeing that footage on America's Craziestshit Caught On Tape.

The cops finally had to go to a gun store to get some AR 15s to take them out.

LOL...I need to see that show again. The crime they committed was dispicable. But the thing that blows my mind is , indeed , the cops had to go to the local Blood Bath & Beyond ( Gun Store ) because they didn't have the proper Weapons. I looked at the the article in OPM for this game and it instantly reminded me of the 2 Crazies.

February 28th 1997, the scene of the largest gunfight ever caught on tape...

If you like the video of that then you should really love the movie Heat. They practically did the same thing except better. Great movie.

I think this will be one of the greatest games (war type) out in ages. It has all the elements I like ( cover, concealement, gunfire, more gunfire, lots of guns and add ons, lots of gunfire, and tactics without having to control an actual whole squad. I LOVE IT! it also reminded me of HEAT and that real bankrobbery. just the videos of how they swing those weapons around etc....
