Completed this yesterday, thoroughily enjoyed it from start to finish. It has been a total surprise hit for me as those pre-release videos did nothing for me. It was far from perfect mind, but I suspect there will be a sequel in the making that will address the problems.

Sequel was confirmed about a week or so ago for ps3/360 and PC, they said it will still have the same lead character and will not be based in san espirito.
That can only help the game being a next gen title from the ground up and its the second title, the avalanche engine did nothing but impress me with the scale of it all, nothing better than a bit of mad skydiving onto a car!Comment

Excellent, I must have missed that news.Comment

You know - I can't even frikkin' remember the last mission and I only wrapped it a few week ago ><Comment

I basically did the above but landed as soon as possible and ran my way through the jungle. It took a while.Comment

I grabbed one of the copters that was after me, then ignore everything else just get to your target ASAP else you get shot to **** by AA.Comment

This might sound dumb, but do you mean grapple on to a copter and let them take you or actually steal one? Cause the later, I have no idea how

Ok done it now, woa the first part was hard, the second part was the easiest mission EVER, the third, well the first part was difficult, once mastered the rest was the second easiest mission ever.
Oh well, one for the "For Sale" bin.Comment

Anyone had any problems getting this to play? I bought it brand new at the start of the month and had a bit of trouble playing it on my old 360 which died.
Tried it on another machine and it wont even recognise the disc. It's got no scratches on or anything.Comment

I borrowed this off a mate the other day and to be honest found it a bit boring...
It's too big if you know what I mean, it's pretty scary the amount of distance you have to travel to do the first mission alone, then afterwards I was bored

Picked this up on the Square-Enix Steam sale the other week. It hasn't aged well at all. Looks pretty average and the PC port is woeful (no option to change aspect ratio, no mouse support for menus etc). Story is terrible, shooting is terrible, you can run a car at full speed into a tree and it just stops dead with no damage.
Why am I still playing it? That damn grapple hook is so much fun. In what other game can you leap out of a plane mid flight, grapple onto a helicopter, swing in and kick the pilot out and take over? I'm thinking this game could be amazing if there was some kind of combo system for how long you can stay off the ground jumping between vehicles.
Not much of the game left, so I'm hoping the second addresses some of the other flaws and keeps the grappling hook!Comment

^Funnily enough, just clocked Alan Wake but had originally installed Just Cause on my 360's hdd before that game, so in theory I should've been loyal to JC but caved for Alan Wake's modern charms.
I still think Just Cause looks super lovely, maybe 'cos I'm not playing it on PC but the island and colours are stunfucktastic.

Just finished this the other night. Fun last level in the jet, ruined a bit by the parachute/freefall bit.
Started the second yesterday and was absolutely blown away. How did this game not get more attention?!? There isn't even a first play thread for it here. Might have to start one later.
I'm glad I played this first before Just Cause 2 so I could enjoy it on it's own merits, there is no way I could go back after playing the sequel, so much better in every way.Last edited by mekanor; 08-03-2011, 02:22.Comment
