I wrote a review for Just Cause 2, on Xbox 360, it is my second gaming review, after my review of the Xbox 360, which I will also post here, but it is pretty short in my eyes -


I wrote this Just ?Cause I wanted to

Just Cause 2 came a rather long time after the release of the original Just Cause. I suppose Avalanche assumed that Just Cause would keep people going a long time. Just Cause 2 came with rather a lot of improvements believe it or not, you wouldn?t have to select the grappling hook as a weapon, you could just press to fire it and, a new feature, dual hook it to something to make the dual hooked objects stay together. Another improvement was Rico, much better hair, he doesn?t like a Elvis impersonator anymore, better suit, it?s not just plain black it has gear all over it.
After Just Cause 2 had been out for about 3 weeks to a month people had already realised at least 20 glitches/problems/bugs with the game, the most famous one being the Vanderbildt Leisureliner not spawning due to an error in the game code. A patch for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 is currently being dispatched with the Playstation receiving the update earlier than the Xbox.
The PC version of Just Cause 2 has been renowned by thousands of people to be the best version of Just Cause 2. Mainly because of the great amount of mods (modifications) that PC users are able to use, such as skins for Rico (the protagonist), having every vehicle in the game available at the Black Market and the best, in my opinion, the Multiplayer mod. Since Just Cause 2 does not have multiplayer, PC modders have been able to create one themselves, allowing all PC users to go online together in free roam mode. There is even a website for Just Cause 2 Mods, called, wait for it, Just Cause 2 Mods!
The map is a very large success in this game, having 400 square miles to ravage and destroy. A good thing about the map is the regions. There is desert, snowy mountains, tropical lands and a city. All home to different varieties of vehicles. Desert and snowy mountains having the two (or three if you count the Vanderbildt Leisureliner) buses and the city having the very fast supercars, limousines and posh cars.
Overall, Just Cause 2 has been a rather large disappointment, it may not seem like it from this review, in fact in may seem the complete opposite, but trust me, if you have the game, complete it, then discover lots more about it yourself, you will find you won?t enjoy it as much as you would of hoped.
