Mercenaries (Socom meets GTA)

[Kenny]

Imagine a war game with a GTA engine and you have Mercenaries. You can high jack and use anything you can see from helicopters, to jeeps, to boats. You can even order a sports car flown in off of the Black Market via helicopter. Not only that but you can order air strikes on buildings which beautifully crash to the ground.

One of my favorite things is that you can highjack a helicopter and pick things up via hook. Then you can release them or use them as weapons. So you can pick up an enemy jeep and literally hurl it to the mountains below watching it explode.

The guy at EB (who got a ton of calls regaurding Resident Evil 4 while i was there) told me that the owner of a popular XBox site shops there and said if you miss out on this game you're missing out on a lot. The reader reviews over at Gamespot give this game a 9.7.

Definately worth a check out for any PS2 or XBox owner.
