With the release of just cause 2 coming up soon and from what ive seen its just mercenaries 2 with just some little added features. they have copied the scenary from mercs 2 (south america), they have copied the grapling hook. they have copied heaps, still buying it tho ,

I'll wait and see. The original Just Cause was pretty short and didn't have a whole lot to do after the story. If the sequels the same, its not worth it, in my opinion.

Also - they haven't copied the grappling hook mechanic, it was in the original Just Cause.

yeah but mercs 2 sucked balls, just cause 2 looks pretty sweet. the grappling hook in just cause 2 can grab onto anything or connect any 2 things together, imagine the possibilities

C'mon guys, be positive! It looks amazing, I don't think it has copied all that much, either.

All games borrow from one another to some extent. That said Im not really sure exactly what it was about Mercs 2, but luckily I rented it, played maybe about 45 min of it and decided it just wasn't for me, maybe I should have given it a little longer, I dont know.
