A Mercenary's Rule: Everyone Pays

Mercenaries 2: World in Flames is an explosive open-world action game set in a massive, highly reactive, war-torn world. When a power-hungry tyrant messes with Venezuela's oil supply he sparks an invasion that turns the country into a war zone. But for you, international crisis is all upside: You are a mercenary, and you profit from chaos. You are not a soldier. You don't have to play by anyone's rules. You have your own code: you will fulfill the terms of the contract, no matter what. If you see it, you can buy it, steal it, or blow the living crap out of it. And remember rule #1 for mercenaries: EVERYBODY PAYS.

Key Features Massively Open World - Play throughout the varied terrains of Venezuela that is larger than all the Mercenaries maps combined. Work for the Highest Bidder - You decide which factions to work for and when. From oneoff pick-up jobs to complex multi-objective missions your choices will decide how the game progresses and which faction wins the war. New Toys - Over 130 vehicles from civilian cars to tanks and choppers plus all the destructive weaponry you can handle from pistols to rocket launchers. Build Your Own Private Military Company - Recruit other mercenaries to build out your arsenal and options until you have the ultimate array of options to play with. Playable Water - Fly over it, swim through it, race across it in boats. No longer just something to look at, water is an active part of the game.

It is as exciting as the first, but doesn't last as long. After playing the first one for so long, the second was pretty easy to do and it went pretty fast.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mercenaries 2, Shows no Mercy on its Foes, December 24, 2008

This review is from: Mercenaries 2: World in Flames (Video Game)

I am really enjoying this game, dispite what others may say about the game, it doesn't give me the same unsatifactory feeling they are expressing.
The game offers different scenerios that you must play out inorder to advance with the game play. The game only draw back is that I wish there were two-player co-op play on the PS2

This review is from: Mercenaries 2: World in Flames (Video Game)

This game is OK.It has its good points but is loaded with flaws.
You are a Mercenary paid to destroy and kill.Choose between 3 people; Chris Jacobs, Jennifer Mui, and Mattias Nielson.
Pros:
Same controls as mercs 1
swimming
boats
tropical environment
new vehicles
CONS:
Can't kill civilians and you lose money when you hit or shoot them
boring story
boring mission structure
same weapons as mercs 1
driving mechanis have decreased
targeting hasn't improved
flying is hard
can't destroy everything like in mercs 1

All in all this game gets 5/10 cause it still is Mercenaries. Just so,so lazy.
