That said, we liked aspects of what we saw in the first title and we're incredibly optimistic for this one given that Avalanche has spent much time at the drawing board addressing the criticisms of the first instalment in effort to give gamers a more rounded action experience. Overall, Just Cause 2 reminds us of the no holds barred experience of Pandemic's chaotic action title Mercenaries 2 and it has definitely piqued our interest as a title to watch in 2010".
