Well grappling a speeding jeep to the floor so that it backflips over the edge of a bridge and plummets into the water below is not going to get old is it. I may have to test this though just to make sure *goes to play Just Cause 2 again*

There are thousands and thousands of locations in the game. I don't trust anyone who's actually beaten it.
a game i still dint had the chance to play. neither this on even the first one. ah yes, because it requires LIVE.
I may be in the minority but I didn't feel engaged in Just Cause 2 at all. Sure I had a bit of fun looking around, trying the vehicles, seeing the environment, (which is generally stunning,) and tethering enemies to helicopters... but I just didn't find any of it compelling. I was just uninterested. I feel like I'm kind of missing out.

Love it when more and more evidence flies in the face of industry logic.
yeah, i read it as well that it doesnt require LIVE on steam. but i prefer to have the retail version since downloading takes a long time for me.shameduser said:
maybe for the next special sales i might get it once it 75% off.
I just spent something like two hours trying to tether a boat to a jet before it took off. Finally getting to ride a boat through the air made all of that effort worth it.
I think it would be really funny if avalanche made just cause 3 with tacked on multiplayer and on disk DLC. I loved JC2 though and I'm glad that it still has a good fanbase.
Just Cause 2 is one of my favorite games of all time and this is one of the reasons, everything is in the game the moment you boot it up. Sure there are DLC weapons and vehicles some of which is free and some costs around a buck or two but Avalanche didn't try to block off half of Panau and force you to pay $15 to unlock it. Capitcha: "You're not listening" I doubt many developers are at this point.
I never thought I'd ever hear myself say this, but yes, you are the only one. There is literally nothing in JC1 that is better than it is in JC2- everything is improved... except perhaps for the music, which was pretty rad in the first one...Random berk said:
The voice work is more hammy in JC2, but as the first was a fairly boring action game played straight, and JC2 is more satirical and tongue in cheek, the voices only serve to enhance that image. Therefore; an improvement.
You are. There's no two ways about it- you just are.Superior Mind said:
Exactly. And we could use more games like it. Between Just Cause 2, Saints Row 2 (oh alright, and 3), The Saboteur, Driver: San Francisco and Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction- the sandbox genre has a wonderful variety of 'fun' sandbox alternatives to the depressing, plodding wet sack of potatoes that GTA has become.tehweave said:

I don't think I've ever played a game with a more realistic and interesting terrain. So much detail -- I want them to share their techniques with all game makers so we can get that in other games. And it's all rendered so well. I can't count how many hours I spent just cruising around my speedboat and admiring the view while casually blowing up trawlers with my rocket launcher. And once you got into the rhythm of using the hook and parachute to quickly traverse swaths of terrain it became quite soothing.
