Mercs2 Flop

I loved the first game and a lot of my friends hyped this one but
even on both systems it still looks ugly....

And they said Too Human flopped...

I'm with dark on this one. The game does have issues but they are invisible to me when blowing shit up... especially with a mate by your side.

BTW: your blog needs MORE. A sentence and a URL isn't enough substance. Just some friendly advice.

Great read. Front page. Now.

Who is your daddy and what does he do?

Yeah its looks bad. Still getting it though as i need some reasonably good games and I loved the original.
The mouth movements all look shit n all.

Actually, the game is doing fairly well in the reviews. I'm afraid graphics don't mean shit, when you've got fun gameplay.

I really liked. So much so I wrote a review.

I have tons of issues with the game but I must confess, when the game hits the right notes its incredible. Its easy to get lost in the epic and unpredictable battles the game offers. Trying to beat the clock & prevent a soldier from calling his factions HQ to preserve a friendly move while being targeted by RPGs and tanks while the world crumbles around you is full of win - then you get yanked out of the world by some bug/glitch that maybe wouldn't have existed if the game wasn't bound to some arbitrary release schedule

hmmm now it questions the purchasing

The CGI cut scenes are bad but the in-game looks nice. I am just bored cause my friend didn't/hasn't picked the game up yet so I have to play by my lonesome :(

My roommate picked it up, very cool game. Come on, you can take out buildings! What more do you need!?

i'm like 23% done with mercs 2, playing with a buddy...there's lots of glating pop-up issues, shitty AI problems, clipping, collision issues, all that...yeah the water looks pretty fake (yet strangely pretty) and theres really ugly textures here and there...but the package really comes together with co-op.

mercs 2 is like a problem child you try so hard to hate, but cannot.
