Loved the first, second should be as good at least. Though some of the stuff I liked is coming out, other stuff is coming in that should be as good at least.

I couldn't get on with the vehicle handling in the first, the cars steered like a unicycle.

This grappling hook business sounds like a giggle. All games should have grappling hooks.

"There, amidst ninjas and atomic submarines, surrounded by a gentle fall of snow and the insistent chug of military engines, is probably where we should leave Rico and his game for the time being."

the 'C64 book of good game design' has returned and it is pissed, crotch punches for all

Skydiving in the first is one of the truly 'next gen' experiences of mine. Fly as high as you can in a plane then leap out and just enjoy the beuaty of the sky and the clouds, all whilst masturbating.

Just don't make Far Cry 2's fatal mistake of having infinitely respawning enemy checkpoints. That irritated me so much I can;t even bring myself to play that game anymore, despite it being fun when it gets going.

this is going to be a lot of fun, in a saints row 2 kind of way. by the way, i never had one single problem with the first game. played it on PC, don't know if that matters.

this sounds exactly like Mercenaries 2 ... but good?

I had such high hopes for Mercenaries 2! This looks like it could at least partially help erase the horror.

Edit: forgot to pipe in with my .02 currency units on the actual topic :P

In fact, this looks to be more than just a huge improvement on the original, which I found enjoyable but ever so slightly... soulless? If the feel is right, this may turn out to be a real winner for me. Far too many games take themselves WAY too seriously these days, which only serves to underpin their shortcomings, and very few have any real sense of FUN. In fact, I find the anonymous knights of Castle Crashers have more soul, and certainly a lot more genuine excitement, than most triple-A next gen "heroes".

More pulp for me, plz. I can't wait to harpoon things :D

Oh god, this sounds so much fun! I played the first one quite a bit and I'm really looking forward to this. Being able to attach enemies to each other and to objects or vehicles sounds ridiculously awesome!

The original Just Cause was heaps of fun. This one sounds totally round the bend! Especially the ninjas:)

Can't wait.

The first one was alright. For 3 hours or so. Then you had to repeat the same awful process over and over and over. Yuck.

LOL this looks great! I had so many laughs just reading the preview [I mean grappling the ground, wtf?] that I think I'm going to have to pick this one up :)

Well, if it's buggy they certainly can't complain about it being rushed out the door this time...

"Bigger, better and even more ridiculous"?

sounds great, i loved the 1st 1, altho i had it on ps2, which meant that the graphics were actually terrible, and whole sections that were in the 360 version were missing

so it said i could "travel in a sub" on the case, no such thing in the ps2 version haha

i had alot of fun with it though it did get a bit repetative

I seriously enjoyed the first Just Cause. The world needs more grappling hook guns.

No need to fly a plane as high as you can for the sky diving - simply call in a crate and then tether the supply chopper - it will have thousands of feet up faster than Concord.
