I took one for the team and just bought Army of Two. And to up the stakes I even picked up the PS3 version.
So first things first: I don't know if it is the 6 extra months in development or Ea is getting their stuff together because the PS3 version seems to be very competent. I can only compare it to the videos I have seen of the 360 version but I can not make out any major differences. The framerate is also rock solid so far.
I played the training mission before the guys become mercenaries and the first real mission. It's pretty fun. It's bit less cover oriented as Gears of War and you do not stick to it. Stuff like blind firering still works just fine. The AI is not that clever (I play on medium, hard has to be unlocked) but the enemies deal a good amount of damage so you still have some good challenge.
You can't pick up any weapons, just ammo but as you may already know you can buy new weapons and upgrades for them. Sometimes even during missions.
I was not able to try any of the Mp modes yet because no one is only.
That's it so far for a first impression feel free to ask questions, I will try to answer them.
PS: There may be more to the story than it seems. There were some hints to stuff to come already I think.
