    A buggy mess

    I still enjoyed the game, but it is still incredibly buggy and slow (especially when a lot of stuff is happening on the screen). You are basically trying to create as much chaos as you possibly can to move the plot along (think of a GTA, but playing a "good" guy instead of the bad guys. There is a lot to do, and if they can every fix the frame rate and bugs, this would be a blast. But there are times when the game slows to a crawl and is unplayable. If you can put up with occasional hanging gameplay and slow frame rates, and you like causing destruction, give it a go if it's on sale. Otherwise, you may want to stay away for now.

    A great game with lots of actions and stunts that are not to hard to get down. The greatest limitation in the game is your own imagination on how you wish to wreck havoc on everything around you. Like being in your own action movie.

    The story is good enough to be entertaining, but that's not the main selling point here. It's fun to explore and find new ways to blow everything to smithereens! This game has some of the best explosions I've seen.

    This game is tough to review. It can be a mess at times, an awesome at other moments. If u want a groundbreaking blockbuster, then pass. If u want to run wild in a enormous sandbox, then u will have a lot of fun.

    My son upgraded from X-Box 360 to X-Box One based primarily on wanting to play Just Cause 3 on the new platform. He loves the game and that serves as a great incentive for him to keep his grades up so he can keep playing.

    The more creative you are, the better the game gets. Several ways to attack each situation. The draw distance is amazing. The wing suit is a blast to fly around the islands. Huge explosions = lots of eye candy!

    This game is pure awesomeness because you can do pretty much whatever you want. Also the wing suit has great physics cause unlike other games where you can just fly you have to keep grappling yourself for momentum.

    Slightly buggy third person action/destruction

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Just Cause 3 is a third person action game where your character attempts to capture the map and complete missions by using vehicles and weapons largely to destroy enemy structures. The open world aspect is fun to traverse, but the game missions can be buggy due to the unpredictable and chaotic nature of the game. Furthermore, the game suffers noticeable slowdown when many enemies or explosions are nearby. If you liked Just Cause 2, you will probably like the sequel.

    if you like explosions, this is your game. Action packed, but personally don't like the camera perspective. Not my thing and that was the way the game is designed. Loads of fun tho and very far-cry-ish

    My 8 year old son found this game on YouTube. Wasn't sure exactly what it was, but decided to give it a try. He loves it and I have to admit it is pretty cool. Anything you can imagine you can do in this game.

    the game is quite a bit of fun (lots to do and I completed most of the side missions) but the framerate can hit the single digits during hectic moments. overall I enjoyed it though.

    Just Cause......just because it was on sale.

    Overall, this is a great game.  The new mods, which change how your vehicles, weapons, and grappling hooks work, make the game a little deeper than the last.  The story has more polish, but you are probably not playing this game for the story.   The wingsuit and multiple grappling hooks make getting around and destroying stuff more exciting. As much as I enjoy this game, it has a tendency to stutter when you explode too many things at once, which is strange, since this is the main draw for this game. I would’ve figured that two months after release this issue could be fixed.  It doesn’t last too long, just interrupts the flow of the game.  Besides the inconvenience, Just Cause 3 is a blast.

    I'm a die-hard fan of this franchise. I've owned Just Cause 2 three times. Since this one came with Just Cause 2, it's my fourth time. I wish juggle kills were still in the game. Everything else is great.

    Great graphics, solid mechanics, and tons of stuff to do. If there can be any complaints, its somewhat repetitive, and the vehicle driving isn't the best. Still have a ton of fun playing it despite that.

    Just Cause 3 was a very pleasant surprise. The amount of things you can do in this same far surpassed my expectations. It can get a little stale after about 20 hours but you will have a blast.

    I loved Just Cause 2 and Just Cause 3 is just as good with better views of the island and amazing game play. Just love the freedom you have within the game to cause mayhem. Just plain fun.
