I love the song in the commercial.

"Oh no you didn't!"

I heard alot of good things about the first game, but I never played it myself.

I got it, its pretty fun. It does have some decent flaws though, shooting is meh. Dialogue is very repetative, kinda easy since I have played for about 6-8 hours and have yet to die. But it is a blast to blow shit up, so I would say it is a must rent, I only bought it because of how dry new releases have been recently, it will keep you busy while we wait for all the much better games this fall.

I'm waiting on Fable 2 myself.

A good option for Merc 2 might be to wait a couple months and find a used copy. You know people will be trading that one in quickly.

I have this game and I love it.
Some of the missions are a little repetitive but it is a fun game overall

Okay, I rented it this weekend. Not too good for me. It has a bunch of glitches, there is no targeting system, controls are wack. It is an open world game like GTA, comparing it to GTA, there is no contest.

The Mercenaries game just feels cheap, rushed, and definitely not polished. I give it a 2 out of 5. It can be fun, but it gets old fast...
