These games seem very similar based on the little amount of info available .
They're both cover stories this month too .
What do you guys think ?

Never heard of Dead Men. Army Of Two is looking incredible though. Read the preview in the latest EGM, keeping my eye on that one.

Last one I got has Kane & Lynch on it, so I hope I get this new one soon.
Army of two looks pretty cool, but I wanna wait and see more impressions.

Found info:
Eariler today, Eidos announced Kane & Lynch: Dead Men.

The publisher promises that this volatile partnership combined with innovative technologies allow for an unparalleled gaming experience.

Interesting concept. I'll have to see how this plays out, but for the meantime I'm looking forward more towards Army of Two.
EDIT: I did hear of the game before, but I never heard of it called as Dead Men, just Kane & Lynch.

Oooooo it's the same game :p
haha I feel a little dumb now.
Well, so far from what I've seen, I'm leaning more towards Kane & Lynch, I love the look of it.

I went ahead and changed the title .
I'm liking what I've seen of Kane & Lynch a bit more.
Regardless, both look terrific.

Army of Two looks amazing, I also was in awe at the preview in EGM. It's probably because the masks they wear are sooooooooooo bad ass.
And since Kane & Lynch is from IO Interactive.....not really interested (I don't like Hitman at all) but maybe they'll churn out a good one.
It seems that co-op is finally getting more popular.

Kane & Lynch, because it has co-op & multiplayer, and it's going to be more like Freedom Fighters, then Hitman.
We need a Freedom Fighters 2.

I saw some pictures of Kane & Lynch in Game Informer this month.
Looks cool. I hope it's good.

Where is my Freedom Fighters sequel?We need FF2 with more squad craziness, longer levels, more ragdolling, and blood (yes, please).

Yeah, I really liked Freedom Fighters. If Kane & Lynch can come close to it then I'm sold and I like the general direction IOI is heading after Blood Money too which I think is my favorite Hitman game to date. Plus the premise is pretty interesting as well. Army of Two sounds good, a cross between Gears of War & Mercenaries, but it also looks like it could end up as just another crappy generic shooter. I'm really hoping for the former because right now gaming in general and 360 especially needs as many good online co-op games as they can get.
