    Conclusion An unprecedented sense of scale, psychotic and mind-boggling stunts and high flying vehicular combat carry this gem of a game, but it isn’t without its flaws. Just Cause 2 really reinvents the young series, and brings the mediocre rating of the first up a few notches. But ultimately some pretty major pacing issues and some bad voice work stop the game from being a sandbox masterpiece. Read more

    When you're surrounded by a dozen armed baddies and bombarded by a hovering helicopter, however, making a quick getaway may be the best option. Rico's grappling hook is a real life saver in these circumstances. You might attach it to a nearby building and fling yourself onto a roof or grapple the ground and pull yourself out of harm's way.

    Open world bliss, or open world apathy? by belgavion © 2010 Gav Ross It was slightly surprising when an announcement was made that 2006’s Just Cause – a game that came towards the end of the Xbox/PS2 cycle but also managed to make an upscaled appearance on the 360 – was going to get a sequel.

    Just Cause 2 is one of the best sandbox games I've ever played. The action is absolutely insane, the plot ludicrous, the scenery breathtaking, and though there is a slight learning curve to get your funky fresh moves down pat, it's well worth the investment, as you find yourself drawn back to it again and again just to round out that last village as you edge closer to the massive task of 100% completion. Viva la Revolution! Read more
