    If they did an HD remake of JC2, would you purchase it? I'd give it a shot if the game was $39.99 or so, but I wouldn't pay full price for the game again.

    I don't think I would honestly.

    I mean we've got JC3 just around the corner and to come out with a HD remake of the second one would not make that much sense.

    Honestly in a weird way I think that I really enjoyed that game. For me I think that the grappling hook was the most fun that I had in the game. Sometimes I would sit for hours and just grapple my way around the city.

    I think the main problem that I had with the game is that the story was too weak and many times I felt lost in the game. For me I think that might be the deal killer for me in getting a remastered version of the game.

    I don't really know, I think JC3 will be pretty good and it would be kind of dumb to pay for a JC2 remake as well :p. Maybe in 10 years or so an HD remake will be good, but not right now.

    I wouldn't. There are a lot more games out there that I like a lot more that I would prefer to spend money on as a remaster. I don't think there is enough in this game, for me, to pay full price again.

    You're not the only one! :p I'm pretty sure that's 90% of what people play Just Cause 2 for. It might even be 90% of what people play JC3 for!

    Every game or series has some sort of gimmick that gets people coming back, so maybe the grappling hook is the Just Cause gimmick?

    Yeah. As others said above me, we already have Just Cause 3 and Just Cause 2 is fine as it is. If anything, they should make proper mod tools to keep the JC2 community going strong, since I feel that would benefit JC2 way more than just a gimmicky remastered edition.

    I never really liked doing remasters unless the game is completely old. I mean it kinda reminds me of them doing The Last of Us remastered. While, it did look way more beautiful and presented a lot of "ooooooo and awww"

    It should be noted pointing out that the graphics great and didn't really need a upgrade.

    I dont think so. Especially not since the Xbox One has backwards Compatability now.

    Depends on the price I guess. Given how Just Cause 2 has been on sale for real cheap on Steam, I might consider forking out a little (less than 10 dollars) for a HD remaster.

    No, I wouldn't. I'd buy Just Cause 3. Besides, JC2 isn't really that outdated to have HD remake made for it, it's graphics are still quite up to date.

    I don't think I would since I put a lot of time in Just Cause 2 in the past. We have Just Cause 3 now and I'd rather just play that. There are some things in Just Cause 2 I like better than in 3 but overall I feel 3 is a big improvement.

    I personally would. Just Cause 3 to me was a huge disappointment, and I much preferred the second game to it. So being able to play it with remastered visuals and graphics would be awesome.

    Well I have never been one to spend money on things that are "remastered" or a new edition or anything like that. I think that I just fail to see the complete value of it, and on top of me already being very cheap and frugal, it is just easier for me to pass. I will certainly play the game and enjoy it, but when it comes to shelling out the money, I cannot say that I would be me.

    I would. I also bought the remastered GTA V as well, so I figure I won't be disappointing myself as that was one of my favorite games at the time as well.

    I quite liked the mechanics in JC2 to be honest. It was much easier to grapple and parachute at high speed.
