When you first play Just Cause, you would think its a combination of Far Cry and the GTA series games. The graphics are not as good as Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion and Far Cry, but are far more better than the GTA Games. The only thing I would fix in the graphics is post effects as it makes the game look too blurry (I'm not talking about the motion blur either). The Vehicles handling depends on the vehicle you drive. With some cars it handles fine, but on other cars when you take a sharp turn you instantly spin out to a 180 degree turn, and its even worse with bikes. As far as the aircraft vehicles the choppers handle good. The planes have the "ROLL" and "PITCH" controls but are missing the "YAW" controls which rotates the plane around vertically (This makes it difficult to line up with the runway when landing). The AI in the game is way too easy for a highly skilled player, half the time they never even hit you when bullets are flying in all directions. The death animations is horrible as the AI just jump back when they get killed. Their is only 21 storyline missions which is way too short for a game map this size. I guess the Settlement Liberation's, Side Missions, Races, and Collect Missions make up for that. The stunts are a lot of fun jumping from vehicle to vehicle as well as sky diving after jumping out of a plane. The game also has its share of glitches which is not a surprise considering the map size. Overall even with these issues, its still a very fun playable game if you like exploring big maps.
