Eidos released this video and images of Just Cause 2 showing one of the biggest difference between a standard TPS and their new title: The vertical gameplay.
They really need to include some interesting interiours in this one, but I feel this way about pretty much every sandbox game (including GTA IV).
Looks like some ridiculous fun for a couple of hours, but I get the feeling it'll get old as soon as the thrill of messing around wears off. Good rental is my guess...
I really dig the seemingly openess of this game. This is the direction Crysis should have taken... Instead they made it more linear and... well more generic.

the grapple and then parashte looks stupid,but graphically amazing,looks like uncharted open world
That's what I thought until they used it to climb around those buildings by para-sailing by the force of the hook. That's the problem with a lot of games with "vertical gameplay" (e.g. Infamous): that there hasn't been a really good solution to quick and simple flight. But this mechanism seems promising.
But does anyone else think that a dude on a parachute floating above his enemies is kinda pussy and a little bit slow paced? I mean, where's the "run-and-gun" when you're gliding? We can only hope that this game is as awesome as its promise of being an "Uncharted open world" or a sort of successor to Far Cry at its best.
It's obvious this game is gonna sell for the exact same reasons the first one did, everyone jumps on the graphics. Shame the gameplay in the first game was sub-par and the replay value was in the negative numbers. Beware!
