Intense: Just Cause 2 screens have plenty of action photo

Ka-boom. Today, Eidos dropped a bunch of screenshots from Just Cause 2, the sequel to -- wait for it -- Just Cause. As with the previous incarnation, developer Avalanche Studios appears poised to bring all sorts of crazy, explosive action to player’s fingertips this fall.

And destruction is never bad, right? Every game needs bazookas, helicopters, and fire. (Yes, that statement includes Gardening Mama and WiiFit. Especially WiiFit.)

Anyway, Just Cause 2 will take place on another pretty tropical island and will once again star Rico Rodriguez. The little press blurb we received with these screens mentioned “new daredevil stunts” that players will be able to utilize while trying to crumble the “evil dictator” Baby Panay’s control over the paradise.

Just Cause 1 is probably on my top 10 of most disappointing releases ever. I mean, I thought to myself "how can they screw up jumping out of a plane action?!"

I really don't want to get too excited for JC2 (the second coming of Christ?), but these shots do look awesome.

Just Cause 2? I never even heard of original Just Cause. The explosions however is always a plus.

Dude, Just Cuz, is probably my favorite game of-all-time, just for the fact that you can somersault through spinning rotor blades while flying a helicopter then hanglide on the tail or vice versa at your leisure, Just Cuz. Or, jump 200 feet out of the top of a moving jeep (or any vehicle) then parachute to safety, or swan dive into the concrete your choice, Just Cuz. In fact, this game has no fucking point other than Just Cuz.

If you haven't experienced it, its only like 7 bucks at gamestop!

I figured this game was dead. Just Cause could have been the best thing ever, but ended up getting really boring really quickly. I'll definitely give this one a shot.

I really enjoyed the first game! Well on the 360 at least, PS2 version sucked balls!!! Hoping the new one isn't so repetitive...?

Hmm... I dunno, the 1st game had some pretty sweet explosion screen-shots as well. I'm going to try and keep away from the hype, if there is any.

What those screen shots don't show you is the four hours you spend walking through the jungle between each brief moment of action. Just Cause 1 was great but I hope the environments in this game is a little more densely populated and varied.
