Now I’ll be the first one to admit that Mercenaries 2 isn’t a GTA killer, or anything even close. BUT, they did get one thing right and that is co-op shenanigans. That’s right co-op shenanigans, sure the game is buggy. The kind of buggy where you have to start missions over because the HVT you need to capture is suspended in the air in a by some unknown force. In co-op however, that doesn’t even matter. You and your Co-op friend of choice will spend so much time just having pure fun with the tools of destruction, that you won’t mind doing a mission over once or twice. What is better then dropping a tank of fuel from a helicopter on a man? Oh wait, I know! Driving a car with a cruise missile marker on it through and enemy base!
EA and Pandemic understands co-op shenanigans is where it’s at, just like Microsoft did when the released Crackdown. EA understands this so much, that they put a shnazzy video together for us to enjoy.

Yeah I was pretty excited when I first heard that, but since their doing this LoTR thing I’m not sure when it would even come out or be announced.
You seriously didn’t just say that there might be a SWBF 3 did you? Because I nearly peed my pants reading that.
Yeah, and rumor has it 3! I’m not sure how their Lord of the Rings game would play but the Star Wars games were pretty fun.
Awesome. Yeah can’t say it’s a GTA killer but looks neat none the less. And it’s made by Pandemic which is also awesome because they also did SW Battlefront 1 and 2.
