    All the charisma of the protagonists is not enough to make up for the lack of substance. The gameplay tactics are primitive, and there is no feeling of fellowship that made Army of Two so fun to play.

    Completely useless A.I. makes playing this game by yourself absolutely infuriating, but if you can find a friend to play with, it at least becomes playable. Then it is simply just boring and repetitive.

    Merely a shadow of its console-based self. [Mar 2010, p.72]

    Pure thrash and a perfect example of how NOT to create a conversion. Buggy and depraved little brother of the great shooter is total crap and a waste of time. [Feb 2010]

    I was initially excited about the prospect of a top-down shooter to play on the go, but my excitement quickly turned to disappointment and frustration. EA tries to stuff too many peripheral gameplay components into The 40th Day, which loses focus of the point of the shoot-em-up genre. Coupled with the extremely poor AI, there just really isn't much to recommend about this game.

It is a psp, it doesnt has the same capabilities as the other consoles mentioned, but it's portable, and has this awesome game. In my opinion, this games captures everything that made Army of Two: the 40th day a different shooter. From the Aggro to the weapon customisation. It is a very easy game to pick up and play. If you ask me, it is a good game to buy, if you dont want to carry around a PS3 or an Xbox 360 in a trip, or want to play at your break in school/work. I have played both versions. But if you don't travel a lot, have one big console and don't mind traveling with it (if you go somewhere), buy the other version.… Full Review »

Местами игра напоминаетИгра шикарна для игры в компании и несколько слаба в одиночном режиме. Это шутер с видом сверху, про двух наемников. Местами игра напоминает шмапы, особенно битвы с боссами. Хороший шутер с сюжетными вставками в стиле комиксов. В течении всей игры, постоянно приходится выбирать между плохим и очень плохим решением, особенно в конце, но какое решение плохое а какое очень плохое, решать вам Как вы поняли, тут есть две концовки.… Full Review »
