...similar games and i find Just Cause. In the game, you will assume the role of the undercover CIA agent Rico Rodriguez, as he tries to overthrow the corrupt government of San Esperito.

Review of Just Cause (PC)

One of the Best Third-Person Shooters Ever

Advantages: Great Gameplay, Awesome Story, Great Controls and Incredible Visuals and Enviroments
Disadvantages: Character Models are Weird and Camera for the PC is Tricky

...is about a Detective named Max Payne whose wife and daughter had just been murdered. He spends three years trying to get lead on the ones reponsible and in order to do that he ends up facing some of the toughest mobsters in New York. The story is probably one of the most detailed stories you will ever see in Video Games. The story is told mostly in the form of Graphic Novels and is narrated by voice of Max Payne (played by James McCaffrey). All ...
...actual people. Max Payne is actually modeled after the writer of the game Sam Lake. Graphically the game was a stand out with its enviroments. Each enviroment was incredibly highly detailed and almost completely flawless. However, that can't be said about its character models. For some reason all of Rockstar games character models from 2001 looked very weird. They had odd shaped heads and catcher mit sized hands. Max's face isn't any better as he ...

The "Who is Woo" of Stranglehold?

Advantages: Grafic, Gameplay, Action
Disadvantages: no disadvantages

Stranglehold is a real masterpiece. This game pushest he envelope in terms of graphics and gameplay. The game is a sequel of the John Woo movie "Hard Boiled". Woo is listed as "Director" of the game in the credits, as he had a big part in deleoping this game. The main character in the game is Inspector Tequila and has been modelled after actor Chow Yun-Fat. Not least due to this feature one has the distinct feeling of being in the middle of a movie. ...
...goons in this game. This time, his former girlfriend and now ex-wife has been kidnapped by the Mafia and Tequila is giving his all - and then some - to free her. He doesn't stick to the law too closely and hunts the bad boys down with his own and very personal style. Needless to say, his enemies are seething… The game has a lot of features which heighten the fun and are useful to boot. E.g. you have the John-Woo-trademark slomo-camera ("Tequila-Time"), ...

Mercenaries 2: World in Flames (PC)

Advantages: Massive world, loads of freedom, interesting plot, fun hijack vehicle minigame
Disadvantages: Difficult and boring side missions, encountered performance issues

Mercenaries 2 is an open-world action game set in a massive war torn world. A power hungry tyrant messes with Venezuela's oil supply, sparking an invasion that turns the country into a war zone. You are a mercenary and can carry out work for whoever you choose. I enjoyed this game, however I never completed it. To begin with it was fantastic and there is so much freedom you have no idea what to do next. The story line is interesting and varied but ...
...when you see how poor the mercenaries graphics are in comparison. Overall if you enjoy games set in a huge free roaming area with tons of toys and stuff to blow up then this is definitely worth a look. I just hope you have more luck running it. ...

Lost Planet - the most realistic winter you can see in-game

Advantages: The graphics, sounds, playability, it's long, cheap enough for awesomeness.
Disadvantages: The controls, the story.

I'll start from the bad thing: the story. It's just weak. The main protagonist's father has died in another planet so he goes there to get revenge. What's worse? The fact that he has amnesia (reminds me of Memento). The other bad thing is the X360 gamepad. You will have to find out how to control the character etc. unless you have a X360 gamepad that was "designed" for Windows (you want to get more money Microsoft, huh?). At least all the other things ...
