    I have had my eye on this game since I saw video come out about it during E3 '07.

    It will probably occupy too much of my time until I get tired of blowing everything up... which may take a long time.

    I'm very interested myself. It seems like the perfect concept for a sandbox game.

    I missed out on the first game, and I loved the commercial for it. I'm really looking forward to playing this one.

    Looks great, loved the first. This really feels like a game that doesn't need a big multiplayer to be great. Co-op will be just fine.

    Loved the original more than any other sandbox game to date, so I fully intend on loving this one as well barring some horrible unforeseen happenstance.

    Already have it preordered. GameStop is giving away a free beanie hat and full color Mercs 2 magazine with preorders. And also some "unique skins" for the game that we have no idea what they are yet.

    I loved the first one.  Already pre-ordered this one.  I hope the fire effects impress.

    I haven't played the first one, but I saw one of the showfloor demonstrations during E3 and it looked really promising.

    the latest trailer completely killed my enthusiasm for this game, which was high due to the first mercenaries being a good play.  However, the hackneyed australian accents, the thug-for-hire main characters, and just the line "i love working for the oil companies" raised my eyebrows right the fuck off my face.  screw you pandemic, i actually do think there's some legitimacy behind the claims that this game is nothing more than a propaganda tool.  Plus it looks like ass.

    ok, so... i didn't play that much of this game over the last year...  I guess that means it didn't live up to the hype

    so how much you play a game determines if it's good or not?
    You must be special.

    other factors seem so come into play when it involves "hype"

    i still had fun with it, but as it was reviewed, i tend to agree with what reviewers said.  I am still going to play more of it.  i got a little annoyed with it when i played a few hours and my progress was lost... but maybe that was due to Xbox.live maint.

    and yes. i am.
