Just Cause 2 – Xbox 360 Review

I’ll be quite honest. I downloaded Just Cause 2 demo off of the Xbox Live Demo section last weekend. I mean, first off, the Just Cause 2 Demo was enough to make me orgasm my pants time and time again. The content provided in the demo itself was enough to keep me occupied for a very long time. And that it did.

See, I have a hard time paying $59.99 for some underdeveloped piece of shit. And Just cause 2 for the 360 was the exact opposite.

The Skill Levels
When you first start the Game, fresh off of the Xbox Landing page your given the option for different types of game play. Now mind you, this is completely normal, but Just Cause 2 offers a new method lower than “easy mode” called ‘Casual’ it caters to us who want to play the story. We just don’t want to die, and we don’t want a challenge. It this method of game play literally walks you through the game, but allows the player to enjoy all the content in a safer setting.

The world
Now I know alot of people criticized grand theft auto 4 and the whole series for catering to stories more than the actual free-roam aspect. If you’re like me, you wanna wreak havoc! You want to destroy everything, you want to steal cars.

Well your in luck. Just cause 2 allows you to walk out of any mission. Yes, just walk right out. Relinquish your duties, go steal a car, come back, and continue. This is followed by the “Heat Level” a skill point percentage tally based off of the damage you do to stuff. It’s similar to the 1-5 star rating in GTA but not as harsh. 5 stars in GTA is some hard shit to pull off, but Just Cause will allow those that actually want to achieve it, to do so not necessarily with ease, but in a fun and challenging manner.

This being said, go out and buy Just Cause 2. But hey, dont take out workd for it. The demo is up on Xbox Live in the market place 100% free of charge.
