    What, you mean if you literally just focused on doing Agency missions and burning through it without exploring? It'd still take you 6 or 7 hours probably, depending on whether you unlocked Agency Mission by doing faction jobs or causing random Chaos. One way is longer, but like I said in the review that's not how the game is meant to be played.

    If you're only interested in story, consider this a 6/10.

    There are 3 nice benchmarks in this game....... I think #3 'Concrete Jungle' should be added to your list of tests for Gfx card reviews...

    Seems quite stressful, even for the newest cards....

    Did the developers miss out on the Inspector Gadget licence?
    Its the wierdest set up super grapples and infinite parachutes
    A real blast to mess around in the demo though now if someone could hack in some thermal dynamics we'd have a great paraglider trainer

    Well, I've put 10 hours in and I'm still only 15% done. Big game this and really quite addictive.

    Compare that to MW2 - I'd have been through it twice by now.

    I was affronted by the fact the game made my PC cry. Wouldn't mind but I only built the thing last month.

    We're going to need a bigger boat. :(

    It does look good though, especially with the CUDA water on...

    Necroing this since it showed up as "best action adventure". I recently played this, just last week.

    At first it was kinda fun but it quickly turned into the same old repetitive blow up those SAMs, shoot those fuel depos, evade these military, hijack that chopper. While it may sound fun, it just got old quick for me.

    However I see Batman: Arkham Asylum made it as honorable mention so I might play that next, I honestly never took the shrink wrap off it yet.

    Just in case anyone ever reads through this, there's an effort by the folks behind Multi Theft Auto to bring multiplayer to Just Cause 2 - they've already had some great success with a server support 3000 (yes, that's three thousand!!!!) players. Still in development but possibly the most exciting thing in FPSs I've ever heard of!

    Hell, it excited me enough to necro my account here along with this thread.
