I'm so excited for this game! It ships today, I should have my copy tomorrow. Anyone else getting this game? Official website
I got really frustrated at the first one. I just can't make through the CIA headquarters... and I thought I was a gamer.
I am intrigued by the multiplayer 2-versus-2 game mode. Shadownet in 3rd person POV against the Mercenaries 1st person POV. Online play should get pretty intense.
I had to return the first one to Blockbuster before I could finish playing it, but I was on one of the last levels and that game was badass. This one is going to KICK and probably be one of the best games ever. I haven't read anything about it, but I have a feeling there wont be too much replay value to it. Ya know, what is there to do after you've already beaten the game so many times?
Its definitely better than the first one. The opening cutscene is pretty good. Not a lot of new stuff, but the SWAT turn is pretty useful. Some stores have it out already.
that's because the first one was single player only. i read some previews where they said the xbox live multiplayer is as good as rainbow 6. if that's the case then the replay value is about unlimited.
