Just Cause 2 (PC) (2010)

20130204:
This has some pretty fun gameplay mechanics. Various elements remind me of Red Faction: Guerilla (2009).

Drive cars.

Like in Red Faction, you can drive vehicles around. However, Just Cause 2 also includes various interactions other than just driving a car, such hanging off to the side. Also different from Red Faction is the inclusion of helicopters and airplanes.

Fly helicopters.
Fly planes.

While modes of transportation are important when it comes to having a big world, they aren't just for getting around. Like Red Faction, it's important to destroy enemy structures and often times, you'll need a way to run after you're done. I would have to say, however, that I had more fun blowing things up in Red Faction.

Destroy buildings.

I also don't like the story of Just Cause 2 as much as the story to Red Faction. In any case, I found the grappling hook fun at first, but over time, it lost its fun and even got a little annoying. Though parachuting remains fun and the weapon system seems promising, but I'm not quite used to it yet.

Open your parachute.
