## Description

From the Manufacturer           Maybe you've heard this one before: as a battle-hardened badass, it is your job to explore an expansive free roaming environment by stealing vehicles and using overpowered assault weapons to clear your path. Of course, the landscape is also peppered with various characters eager to assign you missions and reward your efforts. Sound like a tune you've been dancing to for a while? Though you may not find Mercenaries incredibly original or compelling, it gets a ton of mileage out of the fact that it is always fun to watch things explode. Always. Set in a politically unstable North Korea (with several foreign powers vying for supremacy), Mercenaries puts you in the shoes of one of three elite soldiers-for-hire. Though each character technically has particular strengths, the effect they have on actual gameplay is negligible  any character can use any weapon and drive any vehicle. Fortunately, there is a ton of each to experiment with, leading to some truly hilarious carnage. I especially loved flying around in a helicopter, lowering a winch to grab a passing civilian car, and then slinging it into enemy fortifications. Then again, it's hard to beat that warm feeling you get after brutalizing an international criminal and leaving him lying handcuffed and prone next to some C4. Though I certainly enjoyed dinking around like this for a while, Mercenaries banks on the appeal of wholesale destruction rather than genuinely engaging gameplay. Though it is to be commended for trying to expand the standard "cruise around doing missions" experience, the things it adds don't really contribute much. For instance, though the concept of warring factions and fluctuating loyalties is cool, it is painfully weak in execution. If you work with the Chinese, you cheese off the Russian Mafia. However, if you bribe them, then everything is fine again. In other words, who you work for and who you blow up doesn't have any real repercussions; if you've got cash, you've got friends. Much like the impressive and abundant explosions the game contains, whatever spark of interest Mercenaries may ignite quickly fizzles out due to lackluster mission objectives, flat story and characters (though Matthias, the Swedish merc, has some funny moments), and a generally derivative feel. Like the boring guy the girl always dumps in romantic comedies for the dynamic and spontaneous "Mr. Right," Mercenaries can temporarily fill a void in your life, but you won't want to hang on to it forever.Concept:Run and gun while pledging your allegiance to whoever has the deepest pockets Graphics:Apart from some really pretty particle effects, nothing stands out visually Sound:The game's high point. The mayhem is accompanied by a rousing and majestic score Playability:Great job giving each vehicle a unique feel, but none of them are particularly fast or fun to drive Entertainment:Your enjoyment directly depends on how long you can stand the "go here and kill these people" formula Replay:Moderate Rated: 7.5 out of 10Editor: Joe JubaIssue: February 20052nd Opinion: If developer Pandemic's Full Spectrum Warrior restricted players to the confining box of military tactics, then Mercenaries takes the blinders off and lets gamers step out into a wider world. Full Spectrum Warrior was a game of robotic toy soldiers, and Mercenaries also lacks a soul as it plays the part of rebel without a cause. I had fun running and gunning with each double and triple cross, but at the end of the day, the title remained a flittering butterfly (albeit one packed with anti-tank missiles), with no one aspect really grabbing my imagination or lifting Mercenaries above being a collection of generic action missions. I will say this: Kudos to Pandemic for allowing enough wiggle room in the title's design to give you the freedom to complete jobs for all the competing sides without breaking the game. After all, you are a professional with a job to do, and Mercenaries makes it a fun day at the office.Rated: 7.75 out of 10Editor: Matthew KatoSubscribe to Game Informer

    The Most Fun You'll Have With C4!
  

*by L***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2005*

This game has got to be the greatest game I have ever played for several reasons that I will get to in a moment.  I think that it is important to back up my claim with some experience.  So for that reason, I think that it is important to point out that I have been a gamer all my life and have owned the following games systems: Sega Master System, Sega Genesis, Nintendo 64, Sega Saturn, Playstation, Sega Dreamcast, Playstation 2, and XBOX.  I have played many great titles for each of those systems and have experienced a lot of fun in the process.Now that I have established that I have extensive video game experience to make the previous claim I will go into detail on why this game is the best I have ever played.  The best way to describe this game is that it is a cross between Grand Theft Auto and Star Wars Battlefront (only you don't die as easy as in that game).  You are a MERCENARY, and you work for a company called ExOps that accepts contracts from countries and private interests.  You play on a map that pits you and four other factions against the North Korean army.  The four other factions (South Korea, Allied Forces (UN), China, and the Russian Mafia) contract you to do jobs for them that are most times targeted at the North Korean army, but are sometimes targeted at one another.  The more you do for a faction the more you are liked by that faction, and the more you do against a certain faction the more you are hated by that faction.  As you complete missions for these factions you are on the hunt for the deck of 52, which are 52 of the most powerful North Korean individuals that have ties to the North Korean army.  Each have bounties and you can collect more or less based on whether the contract is detained dead or alive.  Cool, huh?This game is a complete and udder thrill to play because you can either complete missions, collect bounties or just drive around blow stuff up.  I love the game play, because it is pretty straight forward and easy to use (especially if you have played GTA).  There are lots and lots of weapons to use in the game and it is realistic (like Halo) in that you can only carry two weapons with you at a time in addition to your two grenade types and of course the C4!Are you running low on life?  Call in a helicopter to drop off some medical supplies.  Want to do a mission in a tank instead of the civilian POS you just stole?  Call in a helicopter to drop you off a fully equiped tank.  Want to get somewhere fast?  Order a helicopter with a full crew to be dropped off.  Can't blow something up on your own?  Call in a laser guided air strike.  This game has something new for you each and every time you play it.Things that I really like about the game...I like the fact that your character will make remarks throughout the game.  When a blow a lot of stuff up at once he'll say something like "cool!"  When I'm out of ammo and a tank is barreling down on me he'll say something like "you want me to throw my shoe at him?"  It's just so much fun!!!  I enjoy getting paid money each and every time I blow a North Korean jeep to pieces.  I enjoy the creativity that you can use with all your weapons, like the C4.  You can strap some C4 to the hood or your car, drive it into an enemy base, bail out and detonate.  You can plant some C4 in the middle of the road and wait in the bushes while a North Korean jeep drives over it and then detonate.BUY THIS GAME!  You will enjoy it and think that it is the best game that you have ever played too.

    Great on Xbox One/Xbox One X Back Compat
  

*by A***D on Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2018*

I've been playing this game since the day it released, renting it from my local Blockbuster many times and spending hours playing on my PS2. Years later, Microsoft adds original Xbox compatibility to the Xbox One, and includes this title in its lineup. I had to see it in action on my Xbox One X (all OG Xbox back compat titles automatically are rendered at multiples, nearing 4K resolution) and it looks and plays beautifully. The title itself is fantastic with great freedom to approach your objectives in the open world. The size of the map isn't huge, but there's many missions/side-missions to do and many unlockable supply drops to give you more variety in your, as the name suggests, playground of destruction.
