&lt;p&gt;I told myself I wouldnt buy this game at 59.99 though, So i goto ebgames and its only 49.99!! Thats what im talking about!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The jumping from side to side couldve used a more dramatic animation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;lt;P&amp;gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It could benefit from ragdoll effects&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Looks like a killer game!&lt;/p&gt;

I took 400 bullets to the face and nothing... nothing at all.. also the combat controls are clunky, the DEVs should concentrate on the controls alot more... and the auto lockon for the waepons need work... I was on a turret gun in a tower... the turret was turned to the right at its Maximum distance.. a enemy walked about a halfinch more to the right, far enough away that my spray wouldnt touch him normally and to my amaizement I watched my bullets lock onto him and hit and kill him even tho my turret couldnt and didnt move in his direction.. heat seaker rounds... lol&lt;/p&gt;

Exploration is definately a counterbalance. Some of the vehicles control differently I've discovered. Non-combatant cars are slow, and sluggish. Military and Police Jeeps on the otherhand are much more fluid in control.

Helicopters are great, aswell as my new favs the Bat-boat (speedboat thingy) and the Batmobile/Tumbler (prototype-MV). Vehicular combat is great, not involved or requiring tedious aiming (ala Full Auto), but fun and rewarding like a game should be. Watching stuff go boom at critical moments gives it a big budget Hollywood feel. Motion blur is good, even if its only used to cover up muddy textures, it adds some realism and sense of speed. It's the little things that impress me with this game, reversely its the little things that annoy me aswell.

I can easily understand why some would be put off by this game, and I won't even try to argue differently. All I know is, the moment I took the Helicopter higher than the demo would allow, and then jumped out and free-fell (free-fall'ed??) to the Bat-boat and took off all cool, I was sold. Hopefully you guys will experience a moment like this before you delete the demo, if you haven't already :).&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://majornelson.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=139795" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Demo: Just Cause</title><link>http://majornelson.com/archive/2006/08/24/Free-Demo-Just-Cause.aspx#139788</link><pubDate>Fri, 25 Aug 2006 22:04:56 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">055c7c12-9f8e-4800-85f1-aebaf66ea7d8:139788</guid><dc:creator>TCampbell76</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;You have to think crazy in this game. &amp;nbsp;Like if a chasing car is pestering you, hop out onto the roof of your car, jump to his car, then kick him out. &amp;nbsp;Same with the helicopters... you can actually jump out and grab onto the tail, parachute to another and grab onto the tail of the enemy, then climb into his and so on. &amp;nbsp;Game is based on one crazy stunt after another, kind of like a Bond film... cool concept... just plays kind of clunky.&lt;/p&gt;

But the game has its moments. But it can get a little crazy at times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My gamers buds watched me play it yesterday and they cracked up when I had to jack a vehicle, chase after the first bad guy, run him of the road, then firefight him and his guards. It can be a lot of fun, but you have to like the gameplay to truly enjoy, because it does get crazy.&lt;/p&gt;
