Game Preview - Mercenaries 2, World in Flames

So now we're mercenaries, roaming around in Venezuela.  Lots of stuff to blow up, as with the previous Mercenaries game. Drive jeeps up to objects, jump out and blow them up.  Giant (giant!) explosions.  Shoot stuff.  Cool mohawks.  Nice graphics.  Rocket launchers (yeah!).  Monster trucks or tanks choppered in at your call.  Draw distance looks pretty good.  The team's credo - if you can see it, you can use it, you can blow it up - wow!

We're not in Crysis-like graphics here, but I did feel like I was in Venezuela, blowing stuff up!

Dude!  I'm getting the feeling that the next 12 months could  come close to challenging 2007 in terms of vast arrays of amazingly good games!

There's also this character-narrated trailer.
