Just Cause 2 Review

Hi, thanks for taking interest in my blog. I had played and finished Just Cause 2 main game and now playing in Mercenary mode.

    In mercenary mode we have to complete all side missions and recover all hidden stuffs like drugs crates, blackboxes, sacred skulls. Including the above things, you have to discover and complete all locations in the game's world.

    Most enjoyable feature of this game is its huge, ultra realistic game world containing ice covered mountains, dense jungles, lakes, rivers and desert. It is about 1000 Square Kilometers in area and contains a lot of different locations like army bases, air bases, airport, harbors, cities and villages. Due to DirectX 10, game also shows realistic weather effects.

    Other feature that makes it enjoyable is its destruction orientedness i.e main aim of our player is to create chaos among the local government in the game by destroying government properties.

    Protagonist of the game is an Agent named Scorpio. Game is based on a fictional east-asian country Panau and contains mainly two types of missions - Agency Missions and Faction Missions.  Agency missions are those given by the Agency for which Scorpio works and are necessary to complete the main game. Whereas, Faction missions are provided by Factions residing in the game world fighting against a common enemy i.e Panauan government. Factions are Ular boys, Roaches and Reapers.

    Game do not have cheat codes but it contains a similar "get item on demand" feature called Blackmarket. You have to press a button to call blackmarket helicopter and then buy any affordable weapon and vehicle. Later in the game, it also provides a third option called Extraction, using which you can teleport to any discovered location through out the game world instantly.
   Game also contains various land, air and sea vehicles ranging from quadbike to fighter jet plane. It also have an improved stunt system due to which player can perform various stunts on a vehicles.

   Player can carry 1 Primary weapon like a bazooka or an assault rifle, 2 secondary weapons like sub machine gun or pistol and either grenade or remote controlled explosives. Other exciting feature is that player now have an additional rope like item which can be thrown against appropriate targets to pull them or yourself against them. You can also use it to join two items like a running vehicle to the earth to stop it with a jerk or a statue to to your vehicle to fall it on the ground. By experimenting you can also find more of its uses. By using this rope you can even hijack a helicopter in the air.

   Main negative point of the game is that it runs only on Windows Vista and Windows 7 and do not support previous Windows Versions like Windows XP. But thats doesn't affect the joy it provides.
   Conclusion is that, if you have Windows Vista or later and a decent DirectX 10 video card then you should must buy it.
