TeamXbox: Mercenaries 2 Challenge Modes Preview

TeamXbox writes: "The release of Mercenaries 2: World in Flames is fast approaching. That's why we have a reviewable build of the game that we've been hammering on for the last couple days in anticipation of the review next week. No evaluative comments yet, that wouldn't be fair, but I will say I'm hoping the weather is crappy this weekend (like it often is in San Francisco in the Summer time) because I'll be cooped up inside anyway with a bottle of Mountain Dew and my copy of Mercs 2.

At this point we've told you a ton of stuff about what the game's single player, multiplayer and co-op are going to be all about. Heck, we've been practically slapping you in the face with it. But there's another neat little aspect of the game that we've been having a lot of fun with that we wanted to examine a little closer: the game's challenges involving wagers. You get these mini-game events from people you recruit in the game, first from your Support Operative Fiona, who gives you weapon-based drills, then Ewan the helicopter pilot you recruit, and then… let's not start spoiling stuff, ok?"

I cant agree with a lot of games on this list. Far, far more deserving entries - which I wont go into now. All I will say is Blast Corps U...I can dream, cant I?

The Darkness games are among my favorite games of last gen. Both were very unique in their own ways. I'd love to see a third iteration though I doubt it'll happen.

Folklore 2 would be nice as well.

Folklore was great! Great mechanics and atmosphere. Shame it never got too much notice

I_am_Batman3846d ago

Yeah. If I hadn't played the demo I would've probably missed out on it as well.

Helloween133847d ago

Well apart from Jak and Daxter the rest are total crap and I for 1 are glad there was no more of that crap, now if you want to talk about Heavenly sword and Medievil now thats 2 that should have another go at this gen

Legend of Dragoon. That is all that needs to be said.
