Digital Trends - There’s a funny phenomenon among those who have played Just Cause 2: the game lingers. There’s always a pull in the world of big-budget games to move onto the next shiny thing, but Avalanche Studios’ highly destructible sandbox remains a fixture on many a gamer’s shelf and a fun diversion even now, just shy of three years after its release. An appreciation for open world, sandbox experiences is at the heart of the Avalanche ethos, as studio co-founder Christofer Sundberg told Digital Trends in a recent chat.
After six months of negotiating, Avalanche Studios staff have successfully unionized with a new two-year collective bargaining agreement.
These are the worst guns in video games. Unlike weapons that are useful and practical, these only take up space in your inventory.
Being a completionist can be fun, but some games are more like chores than fun. Here are the worst games to 100% complete.
The Yakuza Games
Haha, yeah, currently over 100 hours into Yakuza 0. Considering going for 100% and well on the way but may not get there. Cat Fights are a real chore.
Dead rising was the worst one I’ve ever tried. I haven’t tried it with the modern console “rest mode” but the 360 didn’t have that.
Was GTa4 the on where you had to collect a shit ton of pigeons around the map and there was no help in finding them?
One of the more recent games I got a Platinum in was Killzone: Mercenary for Vita. What a crap game, that requires so much terrible grinding.
Awful game, awful experience.
I can vouch for Just Cause 2. It was the reason I quit achievement hunting. 86 hours in, the game bugged on me during one of the last side quests (it failed no matter what I did) and my save file got corrupted. Wiped it off my drive and never looked back.
I can't wait for Just Cause 3. I absolutely adored the second one. It was one those few open world games that actually rewarded you for messing around. That's an important element in such games. Some people just want to drive around, enjoy the scenery and occasionally crash an airplane into a general.
Combine Just Cause 2 with Infamous 2's user-generated missions, and I'd never sleep.
