Good graphics,Good Gameplay ,If you like Mercenaries 1 you'll like this one. You should have th is in your collection!

the game has a lot of glitches but the explosions are superb! the audio is annoying (there's about 5 different lines that the npc's say in the game and they get very annoying). the visuals on this game aren't perfect but still are amazing! especially when you call in your first bunker buster bomb. it's awesome! if you like a great story, there isn't much here for you. but open world fans who could care less about the story should definitely get this game! it is worth it!

I REALLY enjoyed Mercs 1, so getting Mercs 2 wasn't a question. My only concern was a carbon copy of the first one, which I did not get. The oil rationing I think is a great way to avoid the relative ease of continuous bomb dropping int he first game.

The factions are cool and I really like the buddy system that you create with your team of hired help. I think it adds a deeper dimension to the overall gameplay, where as in the first game all you did was steal and blow stuff up, still fun, but not nearly as challenging.

My biggest annoyance with the game is that its not polished enough. I drove my character off a cliff in the middle of the map and preceeded to fall through the ground and then back into the sky where I continued to fall through the next ground and so on. I could not do anything to move, so eventually I had to Medivac myself back to the HQ.

The missions are challenging, especially on the higher difficulties and make you utilize your air strikes and other items more often.

All in all, if you're a fan of the first one, you'll be a fan of this one. If you enjoy the of Grand Theft Auto but wish you could blow more things up? You'll enjoy this game, just don't expect to have to shuttle girlfriends around!!
