Abstract: Developer: Avalanche Publisher: Square Enix Platforms: PC, PS4, Xbox One Version Reviewed: Xbox One If political power comes from the barrel of a gun, Just Cause's Rico Rodriguez would rule the world. In this series' universe there seems to be no politic...
Beautiful island playground, Loads of explosive toys to throw around, New gadgets add to the fun, Playful sense of humour
Liberation objectives grow repetitive, Lacks the depth of the best open-world games
Meet The Phantom Pain's disposable, delinquent cousin, dedicated to the art of blowing things up as loudly and as frequently as possible. Just Cause 3 doesn't have the depth or richness of the year's big open-world blockbusters, but it has a fantastic set...
