Army of Two is the only cooperative game I've found boring as fuck.
Over the top third person cover based shooter? For christ's sake that's worse than the modern military shooter genre!
Just Cause 2 is the only over-the-top game that I've enjoyed, and that's because it embraced the Hollywood style that [i]made the damn game[/i].
Sorry but your "over-the-top" third person shooter isn't anywhere near over-the-top when compared to other third person shooters especially Vanquish.
Oh wow, just like Gears of War, Bulletstorm, CoD, Battlefield...
I think over-the-top has been quite used in recent games and is not really that interesting anymore, except if you do it right. Just Cause was great in that regard. Also I like some of the Dragonball beat-em ups, they are just carnage.
stand out? I barely remember that game.
Just Cause 2, Serious Sam BFE, and Saints Row 3 are the only recent games I remember that were over the top.
