Re: Just Cause 2

Mike Oldman takes a look at the PS3 version of the game and shows off just how easy it is to save video footage in-game and upload it directly to YouTube.

Yeah, it's the same game on both from what I understand sans the Youtube functionality of the PS3 version. I wonder if the PS3 demo will have Youtube in it?

Re: Just Cause 2

Looking at this reminds me of Mercenaries. I am gonna check out the demo.

Re: Just Cause 2

ok, played both the 360 and ps3 demo's. Game is good. Now, before you play, a couple of things to switch. Make sure you turn the x and y sensativity all the way to 100. If you do not, the main character feels a bit stiff. Also, to use the grapling hook properly just tap the L1/LB button. If yopu hold it, it just comes back to you. The game does have a bit of a Mercenaries 2 feel but its more polished. Lastly, the youtube feature is not in the ps3 version. At this point, I recommend the ps3 version because of that. The 2 versions are otherwise identical.

Re: Just Cause 2

Glad you liked it, I know you have been excited for it for awhile!

I didn't care for the demo at all, deleted it after about 10 minutes. Just nothing to suck me into it. But there was some really cool stuff like juggling an enemy. I didn't like Mercenaries 2 either though, and this definitely has a similar feel.

Re: Just Cause 2

I was kind of, "ehhhh" about the demo. I like the blowing up stuff aspect, but like Eton said, the main character felt really stiff, especially in combat. I'm too used to having a cover system these days I guess. The controls felt a bit off to me.

The graphics are beautiful, that is, the landscape is beautiful. It's really nice to jump out of a helicopter and check out the map for a few seconds. I loved Mercenaries and this game is similar, I'll probably end up grabbing it later on but it's not an instant purchase type of game for me.

Re: Just Cause 2

I thought the demo was a blast. It was just so much fun going around destroying everything and pretty much taking on the world. Once you get use to the grappling hook and parachute, you feel like a superhero.

Re: Just Cause 2

Ya I didn't really dig the demo at all, although I can see why people would. Game looks great though... just isn't for me.

This is how Mercenaries 2 should have been............I liked Mercs 2, so its nice to see the formula is refined and polished. With the onslaught of games this month, I'll also have to pass for now.
