Mercenaries 2 is a case of great concept and poor execution. Not without its redeeming qualities – in truth, it can be really fun – there are just so many problems dragging the game down it can be hard to embrace the positives. Much of Mercenaries 2 feels like the same old Mercenaries game, only many aspects of gameplay that used to be fun now have the earmarks of calculation and its resultant tedium. The fun hangs almost entirely on explosions and the game’s open, destructible, world. Forget the lack of moral compass, there’s no need of it here, and I can certainly appreciate how free of agenda the game is.
