Army of Two box art revealed

Did Winona use Ryder-Gate as a cover for her mercenary work?

EA Montreal have posted up images of the box art for Army of Two: The 40th Day on their Facebook feed for everyone to gawk at.  To tell the truth, it doesn’t look like they’re departing very far from the original box art, other than to face Salem and Rios to camera and put their “nasty” face on.

I’ll say one thing however, what’s with Rios’ eyes being twice the size of Salem’s?  I mean I know he’s the soulful one, but ca’maaan!  It’s like Winona Ryder was his stand in glamour model or something.

Actually, when you think about it, that’s not as crazy as it sounds.  Winona did take a big hiatus earlier this decade after Ryder Gate.  And the original Army of Two did have early levels take place in 2001 and 2003.  If she’d piled on the weight and gotten a cool facial scar, could she have bee one of the founding fathers of Trans World Operations?  I’m still waiting on more conclusive evidence, but it seems fairly obvious to me that it’s highly plausible.

Of course she would have taken time off between the aircraft carrier and Li-Jiang river missions to go and play Spock’s mum.

… it probably wasn’t a very long shoot anyway, this story still holds water.  If you still don’t believe me, however, feel free to judge for yourself!
