Just Cause

Downloaded the demo last night. Pretty damn cool game and huge. I read that the game is the equivalent of over 1,000 sq miles and the demo is only about 1/20 of that.

It is. Played about an hour and first impression is GTA + Mercenaries.

The game is really cool. You can get a sense of the scale of how huge it is by zooming out on the map. The entire demo takes place on a tiny island compared to the rest of the game. I think I'll definitely pick this one up.

BTW, a new Test Drive demo came out yesterday as well. The game is okay, but the MMO aspect is awesome. I was just driving around and ended up racing other online people through the streets without starting a match

The Just Cause demo is sweet. I kept failing the mission where you have to kill the dude in the helicopter. Other than that, everythign went well. "Stunt Mode" =

This is a pretty cool game, the graphics are not too shabby. I'd definetly get this over Saints Row.

Bought it this weekend.

I give it a 7/10.

But the game is so huge that I would play it just to experince a game world on this scale. Grab a plane and fly from one end of the island to the other, it is worth it as a rental just for that.

Yea I am playing it. I have taken a helicopter and just flown around the island looking the scale is huge.

The play leave a little to be desired but the scale and graphics are good. and I am with silver somewhere around a 7 out of 10.
