As much as any year in recent memory, 2015 has seen a constant stream of openworld games. Writing as a player who tends to get openworld fatigue on a regular basis, this barrage of big maps and "player freedom" can be trouble.

Just Cause 3 is the latest installment in the action/adventure series, and takes open world freedom to new heights.

Games make great teachers. Most expect to be played in a certain way and will subtly guide you toward their preferred style. Stealth games-your s-demand patience, preparation, and foresight and will punish reckless players by siccing the guards on them.

Is 20 hours of sheer carnage worth the price of admission? It's not going to be anyone's game of the year and it'll quickly be forgotten as many of its better ideas are aped more successfully by next year's crop of games, but for now it's probably the most fun open world in 2015, even if it's about...

Went wrong somewhere along the line. The original idea might have promise, but in practice the game has failed. Threatens to be interesting sometimes, but rarely.

" F$%k you missile! ", Rico shouted with his gruff European accent. He was hundreds of feet up in the air, riding a goddamned missile headed for the rebels he was a part of. I was on the edge of my seat, clutching the controller tightly in my hands.

Excessive Load Times Occasionally; Upgrades Locked Behind Challenges

It's easy to be bowled over by Just Cause 3 at first. It's big and brash and gives really great explosion. There's just not much more to it, and over 30 hours, what was once exhilarating becomes rather wearying.

Great openworld shooter game lots of fun and one of them games you can play for ages. Not one that completes quickly Well worth the money i paid for it

I've enjoyed Just Cause 3 , got bored, and got into it again in the space of 30 hours. The story missions are poor, and the structure is very repetitive, but there's no better way to destroy an enticing world.

+ Destruction physics are amazing; + Variety of ways to kill enemies; + Wing suit is great; grapple still awesome; + Still got it: pure ridiculousness

- Story is awful; - Extremely repetitive objectives; - Frame rate issues (Xbox One; - Poor shooter mechanics; - Totally reliant on making your own fun

Rico Rodriguez comes home in Just Cause 3, bringing revolution and his arsenal of devastating toys to the island nation of Medici. Sebastiano Di Ravello may keep his citizenry under tight control, but Rico's been through this before.
