Oh well - the likelihood of us ever being in a position to command huge battlefield fees is pretty much non-existent anyway. We'd much rather pretend through the medium of videogames.Mercenaries is almost the exact opposite of Pandemic's last big ...   » Read Full Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction preview
