I don't know much about the game, but the commercial ad...my god, I can't get it outta my head.

Re: Mercenaries 2

It looks like a graphically enhanced version of the original... which isn't really a bad thing but the original got boring after the first "suite" when you pretty much experienced everything the game had to offer and the missions didn't vary past "destroy this base" or "escort this guy."

I heard this game was being protested in Venezuela or some South American country due to the storyline.

Re: Mercenaries 2

Betting it will get average or above average reviews. But like a little above average you know?


It's NOT AVERAGE but above it...almost to the line of decent but under it. Is there a word for that? I'm thinking it would be Decrage...that game is decrage..or yeah I've heard about Shadows of the Colossus..I heard it's Decrage. So I guess this will be Decrage. But if it's average than you can't use the word Decrage so you would have to say it's average...

But average sounds like it would suck...people think AVERAGE isn't as good...as...well..GOOD! But with Decrage at least the game gets a chance, right? Saying Mercs 2 is Decrage is almost as good, but Good is above decent. That game was very Dood. There you go, if a game is between Decent and good, it would be Dood. But what if there isn't a word for between decent and good. Wouldn't there be a paradox? Nah...because it can't fall in the middle can it? It did for Decrage so it would have to work. But of there's a between than there would have to be a between to EVERY other 2 positive words?

I think Mercenaries 2 will be Decrage!!!!!!!!!

Re: Mercenaries 2

I hate review scales because they always make it sound like games below an 8 aren't good games. A 6 and 7 are above average on a 10 point scale. It might not be cream of the crop 8-10 but it's still a decent product. I can understand not having the time to play anything other than the best, buy saying games that don't get a 9.1 are horrendous (looking at you Twilight Princess/MGS4 fanboys) is stupid.

Re: Mercenaries 2

As did I.

I am definetly getting the PC version, I hope they don't just port the PS2 version on the PC though like they do with a lot of PC ports.

I think I have made multiple topics about this in the past it was the main reason I wanted a 360, thankfully it went multiplatform.

Mercenaries never gets boring in my opinion, either getting a helicopter filling it with soldiers then waging war on an enemy base, taking some bunker busting bombs and wiping out EVERYTHING.

Or y'know, the economic nuke is always fun.

Re: Mercenaries 2

After I beat the game. I borrowed the strategy guide from a friend, and cheated a whole bunch. Its fun I have a portable airstrike gun, Chain gun and a Grenade launcher all in my hands.

With the exception of Eurogamer that kinda ruins the scale and who hates it because it's not "real" enough. it's getting a solid B.

Re: Mercenaries 2

I agree with voice over guy 2. That song is annoying as hell and it won't get out of my head. ARGH! Time for the lead treatment!

Re: Mercenaries 2

Playing this for a while. I wish there was an option to use my widescreen resolution. I'm not sure how to overcome that. Very good game, I have no idea why people in other forums are complaining about the graphics, I, personally, think they are good.

Yet to try the Co-Op online though.

Re: Mercenaries 2

So many vehicles, I love it, especially the jeeps and tanks. Also a good number weapons. My personal favorite is the RPG.
