The top 20 multi-format videogames chart

Electronic Arts co-op shooter, Army of Two has blasted Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Games off the number spot in this week’s multi-format videogames chart. According to ELSPA, “Army of Two’ becomes 2008’s first All Formats No1 to be based on new IP and is EA’s first new IP All Formats No1 since ‘Black’ two years ago.” Another interesting fact is that 66% of the sales were made on the Xbox 360, with 34% sales from the PS3 version.

There are also two more new entries in the top ten this week, with Bully: Scholarship Edition dropping in at number 4 and Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Soulstorm coming in at number 8.

sorry for the delay in reply - my personal net use at work has been cut off :( (LMAO the screenshots they used against me had you in most of them lol) but thats another story.

anyway - last night i finished the game in prefessional, which unlocks everything in the game. single player is SO MUCH FUN for action junkies, its an over the top tactical massacre! granted the campaign is VERY short but im not one to base a game solely on length, im having so much fun using different tactics which means different weapons, weapon mods, armour ect you can chose your very own playstyle right to the mark: go in heavy and draw fire with a minigun, let your partner do that while you flank them and take them out with a silenced assault rifle :D . . .or just get up close and put a pizza sized hole in the body of your foe with a modified shotgun or modded Desert Eagle :D

(sorry i get carried away when i talk about this game:D)
i did manage to get a few games online mate yes, campaign and versus and its quite intense, really have to work togather in both cases BUT that in lies its downfall, until the official patch its a nightmare to get a game so i'd wait.
other than that - BUY THIS GAME!!
