Just Cause X-Box 360

[jamesy boy]

Just a general question; anybody else love this game? Got any tips, comments?

I have tipped my toe into the just cause water and im pondering whether or not to shell out for the full game.

What do you think, is it worth it?, is the island not to big?

You played that demo that came with X-box 360 mag other month? Quality, I thought.
I love it, the island is HUGE, dunno if that's a good or bad thing. I reckon it's a massively under-rated game, if you like GTA you'll love this. The missions can be a bit samey though, and you must save as often as you can. The 'collect' missions are absorbing though, I could still be playing this in a year's time. The most satisfying game I've played on the 360 so far, I got it for 14.60 on e-bay.

Spot on, love the demo, take it you can just go on a rampage and ignore the missions?

you could do, but it wouldn't be much fun. The cops/soldiers are easier to deal with than in the GTA games, as well.
I find the lack of 'indoors' play a bit disappointing, but the view and range when you're flying a 'copter....wow!
