Pretty awesome
Too many games nowadays are boring and derative in nature with boring mechanics. Well, Just Cause 2 stops that in eats tracks and spits on it. Just Cause 2 could have really sucked, but it surprised me with how good the visuals are, the game play and just how fun the game was to play. The Visuals were really top notch, except on some characters or cities too closely viewed. I found stopping many times just to see a beautiful vista, not worrying about anything at all. Sometimes i actually felt i was there and just soaked it all up. The ways you can play the game are varied and easy enough to master that you can experiment from time to time and really get some entertaining results. The Grapple arm in this game is like the one in Bionic Commando, except you can use the arm on anything at all. The story absolutely blows, and i skipped all the cutscenes and didnt feel like i was missing anything. Rico isnt a very developed chracter and does try to be one, but they really couldve tried a little harder to make the story and chracters more interesting that they were(only reason i gave it 4 1/2). I Played this for about 22 Hours, and it felt like a good length. I finished all the missions, but Im leaving it installed so I can go fool around in it whenever. As with most open world games, once you get far in the game you can have stronger firepower and better abilites and unlockables. JC2 rewards you for exploring, cause you can find vehicle, weapon, and health parts that make your chracter better. A really fun game JC2 is, and will keep you entertained for a long time, as there is always something to do on the beautlufl Island of Panau. Too Bad the story sucked, it can be hopefully better in Just Cause 3, and they will have the perfect game no doubt.
