Gamer: Dig Deep Episode 4 - Just Cause 2
|
Just when you thought I'd only be playing indie games, Episode 4 of Gamer: Dig Deep comes out and it's for Just Cause 2. Less a review than...yeah, I'm not sure what to say about the video, it's better to just watch it. The cut scenes are really that terrible though. Throughout.
You may have heard me express the opinion on the podcast (or in these newsposts) that what Just Cause 2 needed was to just go balls-out crazy and make the story completely ludicrous. They tried, but what ended up happening is that they put you the player in weirder and weirder gameplay scenarios, and for a game that routinely violates Newtonian Physics, this was not enough for me. The main campaign is bland and predictable with little exception (repetitive too). There are a couple side missions that have you do something off-beat or weird, but the main storyline is pathetic and often hard to watch, as you can see in the snippet from the opening cut scene I included in this week's episode.
BTW, I don't have the budget to review a lot of $60 games, so fully expect the next G:DD episode to come back to indie games.
