FIRST PLAY JUST CAUSE 4
PS4, Xbox One, PC
In Britain we whinge about walking to Tesco in the drizzling rain, and we do it well. But after spending time trying to stop Just Cause 4’s Rico Rodriguez getting bashed up by a raging tornado, I realise I have no idea what being inconvenienced by weather is.
If you’ve played a Just Cause game before you’ll (mostly) know what to expect from the latest instalment. That is, ridiculous physics-driven grappling-hook stunts, wingsuiting from clifftops and making everything explode. The story (if it matters) has Rico and an ever-swelling group of rebels attempting to liberate the island of Solis from a military organisation called The Black Hand. By recruiting new fighters to your Army of Chaos, you gradually take control of the huge map.
