Revisiting Mercenaries 2

Jimmy James 70 Says: Has anyone achieved $1 billion in Mercenaries 2? I'm not talking about earning $1 million. That's easy. I'm not even talking about earning $20 million. That doesn't take too long either. I'm talking about $1 billion. Dollars. That's one more dollar than $999,999,999.00. That's a lot of completed missions, successful wagers from your comrades, and bonuses. How long does it take to earn this milestone in gaming? What does it take to earn $1 billion? This is the quantity of money the US Government spends .

I loved this game and played the crap out of it, yet I never even got close to the one billion dollar achievement.

CrAppleton6323d ago

I still haven't played this game.. but getting a billion dollars sounds pretty ridiculous

bgrundman6323d ago

It would have taken a ton of time to even come close to pulling it off. I found myself just enjoying the mayhem more than the moneymaking.

CrAppleton6323d ago

how much can you make on an average mission?

bgrundman6323d ago

it depends on the mission and who you are doing it for. Later on in the game you will start getting 5+ million dollars per mission, it get much easier to rack up money but 1 billion is still a long ways away.

CrAppleton6323d ago

True.. You would think there was someone out there with that achievement though

bgrundman6323d ago

I bet there is, but that person probably has far too much time on their hands.

bgrundman6323d ago

Did more people check this out on PlayStation 2, 3, or Xbox 360?

killyourfm6323d ago

If people keep talking about Mercs 2, I may have to at least rent it. STOP IT PEOPLE, I have enough to play :-)

bgrundman6323d ago

If for nothing else then the sheer destruction, it is totally worth a rent!

bloop6323d ago

I loved the first Mercenaries but was seriously let down by the second. The destruction is pretty cool but, the overall game gets pretty stale after a while. It's probably the only game I bought and traded in without completing. I just had no desire to play it again after a couple of weeks.

ChampIDC6323d ago

That's exactly how I felt bloop. Also, I really hate how inaccurate assault rifles are...

sak5006323d ago

I gave up after i tried for 20th time to finish the Road test mission to recruit stupid girl mechanic. The pathetic bouncing car kept getting destroyed in that race.

JimmyJames706323d ago

Oh man. That is sooo easy. You gotta learn to hit the big red shiny button (right trigger).

I cant agree with a lot of games on this list. Far, far more deserving entries - which I wont go into now. All I will say is Blast Corps U...I can dream, cant I?

I_am_Batman4160d ago

The Darkness games are among my favorite games of last gen. Both were very unique in their own ways. I'd love to see a third iteration though I doubt it'll happen.

Folklore 2 would be nice as well.

idlet4160d ago

Folklore was great! Great mechanics and atmosphere. Shame it never got too much notice

I_am_Batman4160d ago

Yeah. If I hadn't played the demo I would've probably missed out on it as well.

Helloween134160d ago

Well apart from Jak and Daxter the rest are total crap and I for 1 are glad there was no more of that crap, now if you want to talk about Heavenly sword and Medievil now thats 2 that should have another go at this gen

TomLovesXBOX4160d ago

Legend of Dragoon. That is all that needs to be said.
