Just Cause 2 Trailer: The Grapple
by Jeff Mattas, Nov 10, 2009 4:44pm PSTThe latest trailer for the open-world shooter Just Cause 2 shows off more of the multi-faceted gadget called "The Grapple." The device does more than you might expect. In addition to zipping between buildings and hijacking vehicles, the sandbox gameplay allows for creative player-implementations. If you listen closely, you might be able to hear the sound of Bionic Commando developers crying.
Can you tether an enemy to a moving vehicle? Check. Fling an enemy into the air and juggle him with your machine gun? Check. Tether a car to a helicopter and use it as a giant wrecking ball? Absolutely. In fact, players can use the grapple to tie almost any two items together.

I grappled so many dudes on so many missions. Grappled them to ceilings, grappled them to exploding cans... then I killed em. My god I killed em all.
I even grappled my self sometimes, to do a totally sweet jump, or to stick to the top of a car in a highspeed chase. I still get flashbacks, of absolutely awesome parachute glides performed after grappling off massively tall buildings. Some things a man should never have to do.
But now... they want me to grapple again. To grapple for one last mission. I guess, when you've grappled all your life, that's all you know how to do well.

on a serious note, this looks fucking fun!
the first Just Cause was a really bland port on PC, hopefully this one will deliver.
This grapple looks very cartoony in a game that otherwise seems to be going for a realistic aesthetic, but hey, as long as it's fun.
