I never played the other Just Cause games but I found this to be a tonne of fun simply because you can fight with a resistance against a dictator and blow a bunch of their stuff up. You can also drive around, cause havoc and flight around or just use the grapple. I don't think every game suits a grapple but for this game it can come in handy. I find myself using the parachute more than the grapple though. I use the grapple for climbing as the main character can't climb on his own seemingly. Good for a casual session and there are many weapons you can use as well. I would love to preserve this game on here. I have so much fun. Definitely more fun with a controller as the controlls weren't designed to be complex :)
I loved Just Cause 2 and its destruction mechanics; I also have memories of playing JC2's Multiplayer Mod and some (primitive) single player mods. I was getting hyped for Just Cause 3 but as soon as I found out it had Denuvo I cancelled my pre-order. I still followed the wikis and news of Just Cause 3, there are plenty of additions and easter eggs that I look forward to.

i enjoyed the game a lot, great traversal, plenty of destruction to be had and personally the setting of Medici reminds me of my father's hometown wich is a plus
I played the heck out of this game in 2016 all the way up to 2019 only reason I stopped playing is because I had the disk but the console I had was diskless. But this game was so much fun. I would spend hours just gliding having a friggin blast.

Dark Earth
Dark EarthDark Earth is a post-apocalyptic action-adventure game for the PC. Dark Earth takes place several centuries in the future, when a meteor collision with Earth tossed up great clouds of dust that blocked out the sun. Earth's remaining survivors began to seek refuge beneath small openings in the clouds, the few places light could be found. Those that remained in the 'dark earth' were hunted by strange creatures, infected with the darkness. To shelter themselves from the dangerous 'dark earth', the people began to form cities beneath the light called 'Stallites'. At the time of the game, most of the citizens of the stallite have forgotten their history and now worship the light as a god. The stalites are run by 'Sun Priests', who maintain order and prevent the creatures of darkness from harming the city. The game follows the story of Arkhan, a "guardian of fire", protector of the stallite 'Sparta' and the Sun Priests. After an attack on the sun priests, Arkhan has a poison thrown into his face that begins to infect him with the dark sickness. He begins to mutate into a creature of the dark and has to find a cure before his transformation is complete. Along the way, he is treated as an enemy by most of his former friends while he struggles to uncover the conspiracy behind the attack.

Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of LibertyMetal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty is the sequel to the espionage action game Metal Gear Solid. Much of the gameplay remains the same, as the game's protagonist has to sneak past guards, outsmart them using various gadgets and defeat the tricky boss enemies. The game expanded its predecessor's cover mechanic, with Solid Snake or Raiden able to take cover behind walls or objects and pop out to shoot at enemies, while the improved enemy AI allowed enemies to also take cover from the player. Metal Gear Solid 2 is considered to be one of the greatest video games of all time, as well as a leading example of artistic expression in video games.
