Nobody Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Couldn't find a thread on this, looks brilliant. Played the first one briefly, had quite a bit of fun with it. http://www.gametrailers.com/video/an-island-just-cause-2/60138 The grapple hook is supposed to be very versatile and bring loads of gameplay elements. Basically a really over the top GTA with quite a bit of destructible environments. Demo is supposed to be out tomorrow, so won't be long til we can check it out for ourselves Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Demo is out, just played it. Loads of fun, definitely recommend checking it out. Loved how you could string an enemy on to your vehicle and drive off with him dangling behind you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I'll be trying it out when my red ringed 360 arrives back but this game looks like a ton of fun Reminds me a little of crackdown in a way, from the looks of it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Nice little physics playground with possibly the worst camera a sandbox game has ever had. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 The first one was real unrealistic fun - so if this one is like it it should be decent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Nice little physics playground with possibly the worst camera a sandbox game has ever had. Took a bit of time to get used to like. Doubt I'll be buying it now, but will probably pick it up when the price drops and I'm starved for games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I was going mad with the grappling hook, love that. But I had more fun attaching things to gas canisters and launching them than I did playing the actual game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clay Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Nice little physics playground with possibly the worst camera a sandbox game has ever had. Took a bit of time to get used to like. Doubt I'll be buying it now, but will probably pick it up when the price drops and I'm starved for games. I'd love for this to be the case, far too many good games out I've yet to play and pretty much a constant stream of high quality releases. Starting to feel bogged down by them now ffs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 This went from "Eh" to "30 minutes isn't enough play time" Definite rental. Combat still sucks, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QBG Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 30 minute time limit on a demo isn't good at all. Its intriguing, storyline seems alright and it seems like you have a lot at your disposal in this game. Big fan of the free roaming sandbox style, nothing will top Infamous for that though, at least on PS3 anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 This demo is so much fun! also, on the PC you can have the demo running for 24 hours instead of the 30 min time limit! http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3274854 http://mod.gib.me/justcause2/gibbed_jc2_demo_hackpack.zip drop the unzipped folder into your steam/common/JC2 demo folder - Demo time limit 'removed'. - Demo map limit removed. - Introduction cutscenes removed. - All vehicles in the demo available through black market for free. - All weapons in the demo available through black market for free. - Upgrades for vehicles and weapons are free. - Spiffy black market images for all of the vehicles since the demo didn't have them http://i42.tinypic.com/30j6u54.gif http://i45.tinypic.com/ifbajp.gif http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tl2pQ63Ac0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 8.0 from Gametrailers. Story seems cack, rest seems good. Canny spring for Swedish developers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I think we all knew there'd be zero story, its just about flying about and having over the top fun! I'll prolly be buying this at some point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I think we all knew there'd be zero story, its just about flying about and having over the top fun! I'll prolly be buying this at some point According to the reviews I've read though, the OTT action gets old after a few hours, and you're left with a pretty boring game. Kinda how I felt with Prototype... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stephen927 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 The first one worth playing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I'd prolly skip the 1st one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 The first one worth playing? Not really. It was a fun game four years ago, but I can't imagine it having aged well. It's not like the story in this has anything to do with that one either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissy Bee Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 The first was a port of a PS2 game and it really showed. Not close to the standards you'd expect today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugazi Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Thinking about getting this, after watching someone playing it on Justin.tv Worth it for 16 quid? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Thinking about getting this, after watching someone playing it on Justin.tv Worth it for 16 quid? Probably not for £16. I got in the Steam sales, and it's good craic. I'd imagine you could find it for less... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
