Avalanche Studios and Eidos Interactive’s MAA will definitely be an improvement to the original. Rico continues to parachute down and grapple his enemies into submission, yet this time he’s left San Esperito and headed on to in the the Island of Panau. Fans of the original will find many similarities yet a few key differences in JC2.
Shaun McInnis of gamespot.com points out a few of the changes: “For one, you can cut the grappling hook short in midswing and use it as a way to slingshot yourself up into the air, at which point you open the parachute to sail off to a distant location–or just shoot your enemies from up in the air. The developer guiding the demo was able to perform an impressive string of movements that included zipping up and over armed guard towers while latching onto ledges for cover. Another use is slightly more diabolical: You can tether bad guys to objects by latching your hook onto them and then a second object.” Rico’s back, and looking to rain down on the islands of the South Pacific. Enemies of the grapple beware.
