Game Review: Just Cause

Tags: Games

Just CauseEver wanted to help liberate a country from its opressors? Well in Just Cause here is your chance. You play as a CIA agen out to liberate a small country.

Good:

  • It’s like GTA on a wonderful island. The island is freaking huge.
  • Nice variety of vehicles to play with.
  • The way the camera will stay fixed when you pan it around while in a chopper. Makes it easier to see more of the Island.
  • Checkpoints during missions, so if you die you can easily start part way through a mission.
  • Massive draw distance that lets you see for miles and miles.

Bad:

  • The PDA Mission Map could do with the ability to zoom in more, we have all seen how wonderful google earth is. :-)
  • The pop up is pretty bad to compensate for the big draw distance.
  • Graphics make you want the Xbox 360 version.
  • If you want a tough challenge, go somewhere else. Apart from a few misisons, you can generally breeze through the whole game.

Overall:

Great fun game. Once you stop caring about the dodgy physics, as it is a game afterall, you can really enjoy this. More of a renter than a full purchase.
