The part where the "oh you could buy a jet but..." And the imp with the vehicle insurance saying "Back the fuck off" actually had me in some major giggles, which is a very good thing!

One of the better recent ones :)

Sounds like a weekend rental of the 'completely mindless fun' variety. I'll give it a spin once I'm done with my current research paper.

Huh... game I'm no interested in at all. Maybe he'll hilariously rip it apart.

(watches)

Huh... still not interested, and now I'm also not entertained. Way to break an awesome streak, Ben.

Just finished watching this. Once again, inexplicably, this is a game I now actually want to get thanks to Yhatzee. This is the third time - Psychonauts, then TWEWY, then this. Wow.

I definitely got the vibe that you gave off from your "Mercenaries 2" review. Just wanton destruction with next to no realism. I think I might give the game a try.

Why? Just 'Cause!

Sounds like Just Cause 2 is a sociopath's paradise, even mores o than Saint's Row or GTA. I'll have to check it out.

Haha! Some good quoteable lines this week. Totally agree with Yahtzee on this one, it's lots of fun but totally pointless!

Loving the random cat references!

This all sounds like what I do in gta anyway, only 200 times more of it.

Fuel with weapons? I may have to try this out.

Great review, I loved the bear "Fucked if i know" combo breaker a third of the way in. XD

Honestly, this game sounds boring as hell (partially because I'm a compulsive completionist). Blowing stuff up in a massive grindfest when the travel time is that bad makes me wonder why he couldn't also fart out, say, a teleport pad. or more efficient fuel.

Since when did "It's really fucking fun" not mean it's a good game?

It's a GAME, it's entire purpose is to be fun.

I really enjoyed the JustCause 2 Demo, but i think it wears out really fast, because if you´ve seen one gas station collapsing into piles of flaming dust, you´ve seen them all. And as the Story missions seem to be rather dull, i assume im not going to pay 60 bucks for it.
Nice Review, though.

I love that everyone is quoting little bits from it, as if to prove that they've watched it or at least skipped around enough to pick up a few bits to prove they saw it just so they can get on the first page.

That said, I may actually get this game now, even though I thought it looked a bit dull at first.

I JUST saw this game in action today, and I agree. It IS fun to blow shit up.

...Oh, and the story [There's a story?] isn't important because of all the nice things to blow up.

And the map. Oh. My. Gordon Freeman. That thing is bigger than the budget on a James Cameron movie. There's a desert, a mountain range, about twelve seas, some cities, a hell of a lot of trees, sky everywhere for you to surf planes around in, more trees, cars, and even an oil rig or two. And some trees.


Also hovervehicles. Those are cool.

[And if the CIA is really this cool, why aren't there more pictures of it?]
