Weapon Designers Wanted
EA launched today an ARMY OF TWO™ weapon design contest via the game website www.armyoftwo.com. From May 7 to June 15, gamers can submit their ultimate weapon to be included as a special unlockable pre-order item in the Xbox 360 version of the game. Delivering a groundbreaking strategic 3rd person co-op shooter unparalleled in the action genre, EA Montreal’s ARMY OF TWO focuses on gameplay centered around TWO man missions, TWO man strategies, TWO man tactics and a TWO man advantage. Throughout the game, players can customize and upgrade dozens of deadly weapons and share them with their friends off or online. To enter the contest, gamers will need to submit an image of their weapon and a brief 500-word description. Please click on the game website to see the official rules. Gamers can also access new gameplay screens on the site as well as see examples of customized weapons in the game. Once gamers submit their designs, the images will be posted on the site for the community to vote on. Come June 16, the top weapons will be reviewed by the development team who will then pick two lucky designs to be created and included in the game. In ARMY OF TWO, players can seamlessly transition from AI to live partner as they fight their way through war, turmoil and a conspiracy so vast it threatens the entire world. When one man is not enough, it’s going to take an army of two, and a whole lot of weapons, to save us. Contact: Peter Nguyen pnguyen@ea.comSource: http://www.ea.com/armyoftwo/
