Aye, looks like they’ve gotten much of the lighting almost spot-on, and blowing-up and such looks good too.

In the two pictures you can see his face, his expression looks like his dog just died, or he’s got gas…

Um, I’m normally good at puns. They used to call me the PUNisher. I was Atilla the Pun…and now I got nothin’…

Wait, wait…Rico Rodriquez has to journey to the North Pole and protect (or eliminate?) Tim Allen horrible family commedy film #4: Just Clause.

More stuff out and about is good. Although I did kind of like the quiet exploration between missions.

Q: Mr Rodrigues, are there any other symptoms that make you suspect herpes?

A: Just sores.

This game looks like it could be fun. Ridiculous, over-the-top fun. Damn Ubisoft for making me think of FarCry every time I see a nicely rendered tropical island in a game. That game had so much potential, if they had only left out the stupid trigens. Big Sigh…

Q: Will there be medkits in this game, or what?
A: Just gauss.

I remember loading the demo of the first one, but not playing it…obviously never found anything worth remembering.

Q: How does Rico Rodriquez get between islands?
A: Just causeways.

sorry

The original was one hell of a game, at the time I think it was the best looking game I had ever played, the first time you look at the entire island, it was pure awesome.
Did you know if you flew to the very top of the game, and jumped out it would take half an hour to hit the ground?

Q. What did Wolverine say when asked about murder weapons?
A. Just Claws.

That smoke/explodo effect is going to have to work very hard to look that good when moving. There’s gotta be some boiling of that smoke…or something.

Q: What do you hear when you’re being pecked to death by ravens?

A: Just caws.

@malkav11

I was reading a preview over at a far inferior site of Just Cause 2 and one of the things the Developers said they were going to do was put in more stuff between things, mostly in that terminology, so that there isn’t a boring trip between each encounter. Sounds good to me!

@ THX-1138

Not ridiculous. Awesome. ;D

The whole game is geared towards the superfluous, muzzle flashes not withstanding.

Can’t wait personally. Just Cause was hardly perfect, but it was a lot of fun.

Although the muzzle flash on that assault rifle is ridiculous.

Just Cause 1 is also on Gametap, which is how I would recommend playing it if you have the option. The game’s silly fun for a bit but gets old quite quickly, in my opinion. Mostly because that huge sprawling island world hasn’t actually got very much of interest on it, meaning that it’s more a delay between shooting things than anything else.

I sure do like the fire effects in those screenshots.

Game Producer: We need Rico to look older, but how?
Peon: Stubble?
Game Producer: Stubble! Oh, and roll up his sleeves, that will add a few years.
