So apparently I have 122 hours in this game, but I don't remember a single second of it. I assume it was good then?

I remember the anticipation around this game and looking at low quality screenshots with my friends. The sense of scale in this game is crazy, all these years later this 360 game still has one of the largest open world maps ever made. Having such a gigantic map did hurt the game design a little but that didn't stop the game from being a fun sandbox to ♥♥♥♥ around in PC port is old and often crashes though, i recommend looking up fixes before getting into this

This game is deeply stupid and pretty repetitive but damned if it ain't fun as hell. Also worked with proton experimental just fine, no tweaks needed!

Just Cause 2 was special. it never had aspirations to be more than a fun b-movie game with lots of stunts and explosions and in every way, is a delight. Grappling to basically anything, pulling the chute to start flying and using the grappel to pull yourself along is fun, but also when applied to quickly hijacking vehicles, or surfing atop them, the pure act of getting around is just fun. Story is not much to write home about, but works to get to the fun action locations quickly and ramp up the explosions and the limited destruction and overall i prefer PLAYING this story over JC3 (havent tried 4 yet) aged well enough graphically, but doesnt look new either.
