Just Cause for xbox360

I thought the demo was promising so I picked up the full game. I finished the main story after 11 hours have not done the side quests yet there are hundreds. The game is pretty much the same as Mercenaries so if you can't wait for Mercenaries 2 on 360 than grab this in the mean time. The controls can be a bit difficult at first but if you give it some time you can grappling hook parasail up to a moving helicopter, hijack it, crash it jump out sky dive and land on the roof of a moving car, once you master that the game is quite fun. Also the save system is nice, lets you save after every mission as well as having checkpoints mid mission so there is no tedius driving if you die. There is some amazing draw distance and terrain rendering when you fly to the top of the world and freefall all the way back down.

I recall the PC version being reported as pretty buggy. How does it fare in that respect on the 360? I was pretty intrigued with the game, and almost picked it up the other day, but figured I'd ask around first.

I didn't encounter any bugs while playing the xbox360 version.

I thought it was repetitive and relied more on luck than skill to get the tougher missions done.

It's also a cliche-fest.

The PC version is known to start to really stall after 30 minutes of play, but 15 minutes enduring that through it doesn't happen again for the rest of the session

The controls and animations felt really stiff.
