Mercenaries 2: World in Flames
An interview with senior producer Jonathan Zamkoff
Jan 28, 2008
When it was first released, the orignal Mercenaries was banned in South Korea because of the tensions between the southern and the northern territories, meaning that any media showing conflict between the two was deemed illegal. Now with Mercenaries 2, the game faces another country with its panties in a twist. We caught up with senior producer Jonathan Zamkoff to get his thoughts. So Jonathan, with the game being set in Venezuela, didnt you cause a bit of GTA-style storm with the authorities ...   » Read Full Mercenaries 2: World in Flames preview
Mercenaries 2 - hands-on
We play both generation versions of the game
Jul 26, 2007
Mercenaries was a superb achievement on Xbox and PS2 when it was released in 2005. The destructible environments, go-anywhere and drive-anything gameplay was like GTA in a warzone. But the sandbox style of game has been done so many times now, its sequel is going to have to do a lot more than that if it's going to remain relevant. And after playing it at EA's Chertsey offices... we're not sure it's doing enough. It's got the right attitude, that's for sure. Designed as a fun videogame rather ...   » Read Full Mercenaries 2: World in Flames preview

Minigame inspired by fan-made YouTube videos will feature helicopters and car stacking
Mar 7, 2007
The original Mercenaries on the Xbox and PS2 offered hours of enjoyment outside of the games official missions thanks to its flexible physics engine. With the help of some handy cheats and a hankering for destruction, fans were quick to discover the joys of stacking tons of vehicles before blowing them to smithereens. Take a quick look through YouTube, and youll find all sorts of home-brewed explosions that gamers have captured like this one - which features a meticulously crafted pyramid of ...   » Read Full Mercenaries 2: World in Flames preview

Mercenaries 1 and mercenaries 2 have their differences, for starters 2 has new vechicles and weapons, but in 1 you can have as many items or vechicles delivered to you. I personaly think that Mercenaries 2: World in flames is worth buying.

This game is pretty good, I have it on ps2. Some parts are challanging but that makes it fun, just about everything can be destroyed. I just got it yeasterday and trying to get the helecopter is a pain,but once I have it that will be awsome.
