    Worth a flyer on it if you haven't picked it up yet, maybe. I started playing this last night and while it isn't a graphical showcase or anything, it seems fun enough for being the cost of a beer. I'm kind of shocked to see that this has been out for almost three years now; I seem to remember it coming out more recently than that. It's mildly wonky on PC; it runs fine but there's a weird delay at the main menu while it tries to log you into the online services. But hey: five bucks.

    I found it to be a decent podcast game, but overall pretty disappointing. I still got like 10 fun hours out of it. The core mechanics were solid though so I'm hopeful the studio heard the feedback on progression and drops and will figure out a better balance and loop for the new one. $5 is definitely worth it even if you just glide around destroying bases for a few hours.

    $5 is a pretty good price for that. I found it to be a big step down over JC2 in terms of environment variety and structure (making most of the skill/player progression only occur in cordoned off challenges was a baffling design decision), but I got a good 20 hours of dumb timewastey fun out of it before burning out.

    I completed everything in the game except getting 5 gears on every challenge. Not sure how I managed it, the game isn't that great but I did enjoy just flying around the world. Make sure you get the Flying Fortress DLC especially for the new wingsuit

    Definitely one to avoid if you're fatigued from the generic open world formula though.

    $5 is a great price.

    Just Cause 3 has its ups and downs, but just zipcording/parachuting around liberating cities is a blast.

    Take it as nothing more than that and it’s fantastic. Going deeper...well, sometimes less is more.
