Far Cry 2 vs Just Cause
Far Cry 2
Far Cry 2 sets you in the role of a mercenary who somehow found himself trapped between a 2-sided conflict while being stricken with malaria. You'll need to do whatever it takes to survive and complete your primary mission. Similar to the original, the game provides players with a beautiful open world to roam and explore as well as over 70 different side-missions to complete. This time around though, players can have even more fun with fire as the game mechanics will allow you to burn forests to cut off your enemies' escape. The environment in this game is destructible as well.Far Cry 2 also has a unique AI system that will build on the kills you've made and the reputation you've amassed among your enemies, resulting in unpredictable enemy reactions - they might simply drop their guns and run at the mere sight of you or they will immediately call for reinforcements. This freshens up the game significantly, giving you a different experience with every encounter. For players who want to play this game with friends, you can do so too, but be warned! Your friends can betray you as fast as they can decide to side with you, so you must always keep an eye on them, lest you get jumped.
This game is a brilliant sequel to the first Far Cry and surprisingly made quite a leap in terms of the realism of its gameplay. Some even dubbed this game as being the best Far Cry game ever, but well, you can give the game a try and we'll let you be the judge.
Just Cause
Just Cause is the game to play if you enjoy just destroying anything and everything in your way while enjoying movie-like quality stunts and slow motion effects, which will naturally make your character look super cool. Featuring a wide variety of weapons and vehicles (sea, land and air), Rico (the character you'll be playing as) also has his iconic wingsuit which allows you to explore the island of San Esperito by air and grappling hook that allows you to use scale previously impossible cliffs or sides of buildings and more.Similar to Fallout, Just Cause provides players with total and complete freedom to do whatever they like, however they like. This applies to the game's many missions, side missions, bonus missions and more. The best part about this game though is its over-the-top stunts which in some way parody the crazy cinematically enhanced stunts and effects that many blockbuster Hollywood films use.
Although the storyline in this game falls flat, Just Cause gotten its golden ticket to fame due to the insane amount of explosive destruction that you are allowed to do and the awesome way your character looks when you do it. In a way, Just Cause is a game that's designed as a game-based release valve for all the penned up rage and stress from your everyday lives, giving you a vast game world (and perhaps egging you on) to smash virtual things and people in.
