Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction

If you haven't heard about it, then you don't know what you're missing.

 

Here's a link to it http://ps2.ign.com/objects/666/666235.html

 

 

Although it is an older game, I still play it from time to time. I would say it rivals CoD4...but thats just me. I decided to put out a quick review on it...so...y'know you get the idea of the game.

 

Story

Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction takes place in the not so distant future... After the North Korean president is assassinated by his own son, Choi Song, he takes over the country. Months later, the RAN find a nuclear missiles cash on a North Korean freighter. The UN, or AN as they are called in the story, retaliate and begin fighting their way into the country. China, the South Koreans, and the Russian Mafia join the fight. You are dropped directly into the war-zone at the beginning of your journey. You don't choose sides...you only work for the highest payer.

 

Gameplay

Mercenaries is a 3rd Person shooter and somewhat of a RPG. The reason I say somewhat is because you get to choose your character's clothing, weapons, and which faction(s) you work for. For example, you call in a UH-60 with a full crew of Russian Mafia soldiers and fly it to the Chinese airport and let all hell break loose with AN carpet bombs and SK stealth bombers. Well, guess the Chinese hate you by now. If your too lazy to pick up ammo which is sometimes hard to find for weapons other than the AK-47 and RPG-7, there is always the option of using cheat codes, which the Mercenaries team has supplied us plenty with. Some of the cheats you're able to use change your character's....character. Here is an example of who you can play as.

 

 

Yea. Indiana Jones. Its that good.

 

Well, thats all you get for my reviews. Oh, more good news. The second one is coming out soon.
