"mercenaries - any good?"

just wanted to know if its good please post your replys thanks

Well, it is a big step forward in gameplay terms - being able to demolish pretty much anything you want. And it's extrememly fun calling in an airstrike or padding something out with C4.
So ... I don't see why they shouldn't market it like that. As an ad campaign, for the casual gamer, it's fantastic.

I'll get it eventually, of course.
Seriousness doesn't bother me at all ... but from what I've played and seen it's more serious than you seem to think. And allows plenty of creativity in how you complete stuff.

Pshhh, Xbox. What's that again?

Trailer put me off. Any game marketing itself by talking about blowing stuff up (as much as I like the ad and enjoy blowing stuff up) can't be as serious as I thought... Was looking for a more... Agressive and "real" (ie. SOCOM style) game.

Haven't played it though... Been too busy with Disgaea :D.

I dunno ... I bought Ace Combat 5 instead.
Although from what I've heard it is most excellent.

have a look in the Xbox forum - there's a big topic about it in there.
