Mercenaries 2 might head for handhelds |
Ó
Speaking with Eurogamer, Scott Warner revealed that once Pandemic Studios were done with Mercenaries 2 anything is possible - even a handheld version of the game. Here's Scott Warner's words:At the moment we're only concentrating on the versions of the game we've announced, but I'd love for us to work on a handheld version of Mercs! Anything's possible!
What has Pandemic Studios currently busy at the moment is Mercenaries 2: World in Flames, which is being custom built for next-gen consoles, the PC, and the PS2. After they're done with that game, we just might see more Mercenaries for the PSP or the DS.
Mercenaries 2 is set to feature fully destructible environments and is set to look a lot like Venezuela.
This combination of destruction and Venezuela is something that the aforementioned country doesn't seem to like - heck they even asked Bono to do something about it.
Anyhow, all the mercenary focus on next-gen platforms (and Venezuela) should end by Winter, as Mercenaries 2: World in Flames game is set to be released by then. Will we see a PlayStation Portable version of Mercenaries? We certainly hope.

mercenaries 1 was a really nice game, maybe this one will also be vgood....
lawl@mercs on NDS
I thought the same thing.
But if Mercs 2 is coming out on the PS2.. then it shouldn't be too hard to port to the PSP.
Wow.
Does it really matter if a game is released in another country?! So if this Mercenaries game is released in Germany are we going to ***** about it too???
Give it up. Its just a GAME, my fiancee is Venezuelan.
Yeah they have a *****ed up president but it doesn't mean
that the country as a whole and people are ***** to.
Im an American, and I hate Bush, I think he has *****ed up this country. Does that make you and you and you bad
because the president is a *****?!?!
NO.
Give it up..
i bet it will look crappy like paper style graphics (keep in mind i got both psp and ds)
I cant wait for it! I just hope it will have infrastructure and nothing is cut out from the ps2 part. (yes i know mem, but its 1.8 GB!! not a lot of games take up that much space.)
WTF ARE YOU TALKIN ABOUT?!
'Brittany', my deepest sympathies go to your fiancé for being engaged to a *****.
So many losers online say their console (either PS3 or X360) is better. No, the PS3 hardware is better only because it’s newer; however, the deciding factor which will choose the winner of this console war is the content (games). Both consoles have numerous blockbuster (must-buy, ground-breaking, triple-A, console-selling) exclusive games. That’s why you must buy both consoles.
[PS3 Exclusives]
- Dynasty Gundam Musou (garbage): hack n slash
- Lair (garbage): aerial hack & slash
- Heavenly Sword (garbage): 20% God of War rip-off + 80% hack n slash
- Crysis like FPS from Crytek (garbage): best graphics + extremely boring gameplay
- Getaway (garbage): GTA rip-off
- The Eye of Judgment (garbage): another card game
- PS3 Home (garbage): don’t waste even 5 minutes on this

- Folklore (so-so): super-mesmerizing graphics
- SingStar (so-so)
- SOCOM Confrontation (so-so): SOCOM is the most sold shooter among all PS2 shooters. SOCOM is the most played online game on the PS2 + worse graphics than GRAW 1
- Resistance 2 (confirmed, so-so): lackluster Resistance 1’s sequel
- Haze (timed PS3 exclusive) (so-so): crappy run n gun just like Halo 3
- Heavy Rain (best): cinema quality game
- Warhawk (best): fantastic gameplay
- Ratchet & Clank (best): mind blowing graphics & character animation

- God of War 3 (confirmed, best): dominating

- Eight Days (best)
- Jak and Daxter (best): dominating
- White Knight Story (best)
- WarDevil (best): cinema quality game
- Pain (best): this arcade game is sadistic

- Monster Hunter 3 (best): the PSP version is the most sold PSP game in Japan
[X360 Exclusives]

- Project Gotham Racing 4 (so-so): PGR 3’s average review: 82.5 from 152

- Forza 2 (best): dominating
- Bioshock–ALSO ON PC (best): dominating

The fact that it's coming to PS2 is good enough news! I just hope that the gameplay doesn't suffer... since it's being made for newer systems with better specs.... I can deal with outdated graphics... just please keep the gameplay intact.
But if it's coming to PSP... I'm not sure if I'd want it for PS2 or PSP.
We gotta get out of the habit of saying next-gen
Xbox and Gamecube are both discontinued and the ps3 and wii were released LAST YEAR. I think collectively they need to be called "7th gen" consoles, since technically thats what they are.
you do realize youre just wasting your time right? No one reads all the jargon you write up.
