Open-ended worlds aren't anything new to today's video game landscape. Grand Theft Auto and Crackdown have both showed how great this genre of action games can be, so it's disappointing to see Mercenaries 2: World in Flames fail to reach the high expectations that were lauded before release.
Right off the bat, players will encounter the horrible voice-acting that plagues the entire experience.
