Video Game Reviews of Mercenaries
Customer Review: The most underappreciated game on Xbox.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is truly the most underappreciated game on the Xbox. I strongly believe that this deserves the five stars because as far as action, explosion effects, destruction and graphics, this game beats any Grand Theft Auto game any day. Having all of the Grand Theft Auto games on Xbox, I can tell you that Mercenaries beats it hands down entertainment wise. The explosions are actually more realistic than anything I've played or seen so far on the 360. Though the game may seem focused on the just OK storyline, there is plenty to do in other places, like blowing stuff up, go on the "side-quests" and do other things like stacking helicopters or whatever else. In the end, it is really more of a sandbox game, rather than a story-based thierd-person-shooter, and it should therefore be treated as such. I have yet to get bored of the game after playing it for 20 or more hours. Whatever you may think after reading this far, trust me, the game has plenty to offer as a sandbox-style game. If you are looking for an endlessly-entertaining sandbox game that has incredible explosion effects and intense action, look no further. After all, it is an incredible value at only twenty dollars.
Description of Mercenaries
Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction is a revolutionary third person action-shooter game, set in the near future and inspired by real world events. A military leader stages a coup just as North and South Korea are preparing to unify, turning that region's political situation into violent chaos. As diplomacy fails, this new dictator threatens the world with nuclear war. The world's nations put an unprecedented $100,000,000 reward on him and his advisors. You've decided to claim that bounty.All Games
