Mercenaries 2: World in Flames is probably the biggest game of this summer, and while it's irksomely glitchy, it's a lot of fun - on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC, anyway. Of course the PS2 version, made for a console that's been obsolete for three years, isn't going to be as good as its current-gen cousins. That doesn't mean it can't be a good game on its own, though; after all, it's a fully destructible sandbox war game made using the same game engine as the first Mercenaries, which was fantastic.
So GamesRadar loaded up their PS2 copy of the game to find out - and almost immediately, they were bitterly disappointed by what they saw.
Bad ports don't necessarily mean bad games, but they're inexcusable nonetheless. From the lazy to the straight-up weird, poor ports can cost companies a Bad ports don't necessarily mean bad games, but they're inexcusable nonetheless.

There are oh, so many sequels in video games these days. We've got eight games that we wish would get a follow up.
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.
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
All publicity is good, right? Well, not always. Here's a look at a few of the best (and worst) publicity stunts for games.
Most of the experience is arguably the amount of attention put in to the visuals, so the PS2 version feels like a step back in what Pandemic was trying to accomplish. Lets face it, the game play isn't crystal clear, especially on-foot, with lackluster sooting mechanics and such.
Apparently really bad....The PS2 is so easy and cheap top develop for ..I dont see how they could have made the sequel be worse than the 1st game when they were just using a 4 year old game engine and everything was already in place from the game 1st...all they had to do was literally copy and paste...lol
The trailer showed it.
Ports just dont go well. Especially next gen port to last gen consoles.
They just haaaaaad to mention the PS2, lol.
