the open scenarios, variety of missions, right amount of difficulty and some funny situations make this game worthy.
1. This is yet another GTA-like kind of game... the formula is pretty similar (run, chase, accomplish missions) within a quite open scenario.
2. Graphics are not impressive and neither is the sound...Would have been good in the previous generation consoles but in the 360 they are within the low ranks.
3. Forget everything you've learned about the laws of physics... I don't know in which planet this island is located but I'm pretty sure they're not on ours.
Good things:
I'm giving this game 8 points despite the three issues from above. This is just because Just Cause accomplish very well in two aspects:
- Is Fun
- Is very addictive
This two aspects overcome by far all the shortcomings of the game. You will (trust me) end up doing and enjoying the missions because they are hard (but not too much) and fun.
Other good thing about the game is that the Achievements list is... well... achievable... one thing about Xbox games lately is that most of the times you can humanly obtain only about half of the points the game have... in Just Cause, with enough time and patience, you can obtain about 80 or 90%.
All and all, this a good game... not too original, but fun... and at the end, that's the point... Right?
