Cons: Annoying long drives between destinations. Grim satisfaction in gunning down adversaries and getting paid for each one. Pros: Bright, colorful graphics featuring loads of sunshine and blue sky. I loved demolishing a towering skyscraper with a C4 package, tank or even air strike.
There are loads of guns and explosives and vehicles for you to experiment with, and almost everything in the entire gaming environment is destructible. There are plenty of trophies too, but, annoyingly, a lot of them are rewarded for online play, which I am not really interested in. The missions are all of the hunt/kill/rescue/deliver variety.I found some of them to be rather difficult but I never had to retry more than five times, so that ought to give you an idea of the overall difficulty. The rest of the game is your hunt to find and kill Solano, working for various factions in order to gain info and supplies. You play as one of three characters (I chose Marcus Nilsson) hired and betrayed by a Venezuelan leader called Solano. Since I only had the Gamecube out of the last generation consoles I never got to play the first Mercenaries game, but it matters not.
They complained of glitches, but there really ain't any more than your average video game. I was a little apprehensive about the negative reviews but once I started playing I was instantly hooked. I came across Mercenaries 2 for very cheap in a second hand store and assumed that the low price meant that it would be an inferior game, but since I needed a game to play I just went for it.
