I was checking out games a few days ago and came across this http://www.eidosinteractive.co.uk/gss/justcause/index.html.
I was reading reviews and it got good ratings and said it was like GTA and Farcry mixed. I actually think it looks pretty good and cant wait till it comes out.

I think it looks absolutely retarded.
Hijacking planes by jumping inside the door, AFTER you catch yourself with your own hands on the wings, tail? Please.

I read about this game awhile back and they said it was 250,000 square acres and I thought they were bullshitting. The PC demo comes out tomorrow and they are still saying 250,000 sq acres which is 390 sq miles. Keep in mind that both GTA SanAndreas and Elder Scrolls Oblivion were roughly 17 sq miles.
And since you're operating in a country that's literally 250,000 square real-world acres in size, there's going to be a lot of havoc to wreak. http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/justcause/news.html?sid=6156194&tag=gumballs;subtitle;1

The demo blows, it's impossible to move the camera or aim your gun while parachuting or driving.

I will give you buttsecks for the rest of my life. I had no idea the demo was out, and I've been waiting for this game ever since I heard it was announced.
EDIT: Never mind. This demo absolutely SUCKED. The handling was some of the worst I've seen since Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing. You have to constantly counterbalance because these things turn on a dime. Reminds me of the perfect handing cheat from GTA:SA. The graphics were absolutely awful; they mixed horrible textures and bad draw distance with bloom so colorful it makes me want to vomit. After the third hit, I had to abandon my helicoptor and I had to swim to the mission area. Little did I know that there was a mega-uber boat sitting at the docks, because they don't introduce you to that. As soon as I tried to reload this failed save, it would constantly say "Mission Failed" every time I loaded it. I had to start over again and this time did it better. The boat and prototype car are way overpowered; they shoot homing missiles at a rate of about 3 missiles/second and they destroy with somewhere under 6 missiles on boats and one/two on cars. The AI was fucking stupid; I instantly died when a friendly ran me over (even though 600 bullets in the chest don't affect you). They just charge with no apparent waypoint technology. The shooting was exactly like Tomb Raider without the cool diving moves (it's from Eidos, so I assume they used the same shooting engine). The guns barely make a sound; I have trouble realizing I'm shooting. There's a thousand holes I can poke in this demo and I expect every one to be fixed before retail or I will not buy this game.

Yeah, I was driving and plowed into someone at full speed. The guy didn't die but somehow stood on my roof walking about like an idiot until I crashed into something. The checkpoint system sucks too. It seems like a half-assed Mercenaries with parachutes.
