    }}

    Army of Two is a third person shooter video game developed by Electronic Arts, released on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, focusing on two mercenaries fighting through war, political turmoil, and a conspiracy from 1993 to 2009.

    Focusing on cooperative strategies, Army of Twos main feature is the necessity to use coordinated teamwork to accomplish the games goals. While the game is meant to be played with another human as a partner, a "Partner Artificial Intelligence"(PAI) is also included and programmed to follow the players strategies. Dependence on a partner (whether human or PAI) is so pronounced that most objectives are impossible to complete without it.

    The PS3 version of Army of Two is the first game for the console to be region-locked for online play. EA claims that the region-locking is to prevent network lag caused by players from multiple regions, and to prevent the Asian region console owners from playing the US and European version of the game, as the Asian version has been censored to meet certain requirements (notably, the shooting of already dead bodies in the game). This move has received criticism from certain parties.

Clydes overly condescending attitude and behaviour disgust Salem and Rios. Clyde makes Salem and Rios pull off the assassination themselves and clear out the extraction point without his assistance. After this mission, Philip Clyde invites Lieutenant C read more at » http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Army+of+Two
