"Mercenaries is dense with explosive content that satisfies on a fundamental level. Of the games that have tried to borrow the Grand Theft Auto style of play, Mercenaries is one of the most successful. This is partially because Pandemic clearly understands the importance of peripheral action to creating a cohesive, believable world, but also because it infuses the structure with its own style, and in the process turns it into something of its own. This is the most accomplished game that Pandemic has created yet, and it's an engaging experience that should appeal to action fans looking for a good, messy thrill."

It's true when people say this game came out of nowhere, and if it's not big, it'll definitely be a sleeper hit, at least. I only heard about it in last month's EGM, I think, and I had no idea it was coming out so soon.

I'll have to get it sooner or later, but I may just wait until it drops in price, as I imagine it will if it's a sleeper.

Indeed, after MGS2 revealed to me that the world was being run by chipmunks (at least I think that's the it revealed to me. After the LA-LU-LA-LI-LO came into the picture, I pretty much made everything up as the game progressed so to avoid shitty movie sequences), I have yet to trust another human being. But I'm still buying this game for my up the butt box--hopefully it'll have a few upgrades that make it better than the pigshit2's version.

I literally can't stop laughing. I dunno if its b/c its getting late and I'm emotionally drained by RE4 or what... but every time I read that I get a bad case of the chuckles and can't stop
