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.

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 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.

I really enjoyed the first one and the sequel is an improvement. The addition of boats/swimming and the ability to have a base to store all your vehicles/weapons is very nice. It's a great "shoot-em up" experience that isn't overly challenging. The map is so big that sometimes it's gets a little boring moving from one side to the other.

The reason i rated this game only 3 stars is because its just not as fun as the 1st one. On the first one it just had more epicness. If you want to know about #1. Check out my review for mercenarys: playground of destrotion for ps2. Its awesome.

Very similar to the first game. Controls are non-standard so they take some practice, but overall a good game.

I really like that you can commandeer any vehicle you can get close to, and they have a wide array of weapons to pick up, find or have dropped for you.

I really liked this game, I was also impressed on how fast it shipped to my house. The gameplay was very creative, I found it a little short and I was I was disapointed that you can't play online. Other than that I love to blow stuff up and hijack all kinds of vehicles including copters, boats and tanks. There was also a great selection of guns. It also has that hint of humor that everyone likes. I like to think of it as a Grand Theft Auto in a warzone.

good game for what it is, and would reccomend it. good consistent action and mission based conquest over ruling factions in south america.

I bought this game and played through a few missions.It wasn't really a game grabber for me.It didn't really pull me in to actually finish the game. I like action shooting games but it just lacked something. The graphics were not that bad considering is for ps2. A little boxy.You can pretty much do whatever you want withing limits. And you have different routes you can choose;like side missions.For me it was an ok game.Maybe someday i'll give it another try.

This game is not as good as the Xbox 360 or PS3 editions. The graphics, weapons , and vehicles are the exact same thing as the original, with different names. The graphics are the same quality as the original, but the game is not half as fun or challenging as the first. A sub-par game on this system.
