Just Cause 2

Archive: 8 posts


Just Cause 2 looks amazing. Just watch the video (it's 10 minutes, but it's worth it).

Mindlessly running around with a grappling hook, tethering cable, parachute, and C4? Beautiful graphics with actual color? Sounds like my kind of game.

Awesome!

What's the bet there's a trophy for doing the whole game with the grappling hook

Nice, I just hope the map isn't as huge, empty and littered with trees and rocks as Just Cause 1... swear I only saw about 10% of the map... ok now I want to go complete it...2009-06-09 12:03:00

Not my kind of game I think. The gameplay seems a bit too aimless and random which I don't like all that much. Also I don't know exactly what but it just feels like it's missing something. Some polish maybe. The grappling hook is very useful but aiming it seems to be a bit too slow and too much precision is necessary due to you being able to hook to anything.

Not sure I may like it if I see a bit more but it does bother my a little that it's a realistic enough looking game and yet the physics is ridiculous. When he threw the enemies up in the air and shot them which propelled them even higher I thought it looked stupid. Also the parachute+grappling hook gives a lot of freedom and the ability to cover ground quickly but I can't understand how giving that much freedom won't ruin the game. It looks like you'll be able to use the same cheap tactics over and over again.

Not sure about the game definitely one I'll need to try before I buy. I was a bit confused about how everything will control. Could be a lot of fun once I get it in my hands.

Keep in mind that they always demonstrate games in godmode. But yeah, maybe it just isn't your type of game.2009-06-09 18:57:00

That's one of the reason's I'm drawn to it - I love over-the-top "movie physics". It's always been more fun than realistic physics.
