Well, what are you guy's thoughts on this sequel? I love the game and I loved the first one. I've already preordered it.
Fun fucking game. That's how I'm describing it at the moment. I'm having blast with it!

Bloody fucking awesome. Coop kicks so much ass.
giz, whats your username in game?? Maybe we can coop some time.
Indeed, it's a crapload of fun. Got the PC version, so I'm having some problems with the gamepad, and the graphics seem are horrid unless I sit about four or five feet from the monitor. Nevertheless, it's hard not to enjoy blowing shit up. Still waiting for that doggone nuke.
Its great. I have it on PC, i'm only a 12% right now, but i'm having a blast so far!
My only complaint would be the graphics. Even at max settings with 4X AA and 4X AF @ 1280x720 the graphics are still not that great. I'm not that concerned though, the awesome gameplay more than makes up for it.
What character are you guys playing as? I'm playing as Mattias, i about died laughing when (in spoilers for those who have not played it):
He gets shot in the ass. That leads to some great lines:
"Yeah, because nobody shots him in the ass and gets away with it"
"Oh yeah, your the merc that got shot in the ass"

I rented, and returned it within the hour, too buggy for my likes, clipping was utter crap...Mercenaries World is in flames

I chose Mattias as well. The first Mercenaries game, which I own on the X-Box, I beat with Chris Jacobs. However after seeing how the second game was marketed with Mattias, I figured they probably put more work into that character, and picked him. I have to admit though, the glitchy stuff that happens to his Mohawk sometimes is exorbitantly annoying. It vibrates for god's sake!

What system, 360? I'm planning to pick up an Elite tomorrow due to the price drop so I'll be getting back into some 360 game play. My gamer tag is: Molsonwarrior.
Well the PC version certainly isn't being raved about. The comments I've read so far include PS2 type graphics, boring gameplay, crashes when the EA logo appears (LOL, Evil Adboys), etc. Some can't even get it to launch yet and from what I've heard the word of mouth about the game has casued sales to drop dramatically.
So for now, it appears the PC version anyway is Mercenaries 2: A Game in Flames. Some speculate it's not even worth considering buying until a patch is released, and that's if it actually fixes the problems. I can't help but think this sounds a lot like Ironman PC, which I skipped altogether due to so many bad reviews.
Hm, i never bothered with the first one. Mainly because it didn't work on my old PS2 or PC. Personally, i don't get the point of Mercenaries. What is it's purpose?
