If you could add one thing to this game i would guess that like most gamers out there you would want the addition of Cheats, with most games i would say ( no way) but in this case you might want to play around long after the game is over and cheats would just make that 1000 times better.
Destructoid.com reports: After doing practically everything there is to do in Mercenaries 2: World in Flames, I put the game back on my shelf and started on a different game. But as I was beating the last few missions, I thought to myself, "Man, if only they had included cheats, then I'd never stop playing."
Apparently someone at Pandemic thought that cheats would be a good idea too, as the company has announced today that an update for Xbox 360 (Oct. 13) and PlayStation 3 (Oct. 20) is in the works.
The free "Total Payback" update will include the following:
* Cheats: Infinite ammo, infinite health, and unlock all weapons, vehicles, and airstrikes
* Six new playable characters: Blanco, Fiona, Ewan, Eva, and more
* Cross region co-op: Play multiplayer with friends from foreign countries
Hawt! We have also been told that downloadable content will be coming sometime in November, so be on the lookout for more on that in the near future.
I know you have seen the ad's and i know you have heard the hype but trust me when i say it did not do the game justice at all and you need to play it to find out just how good this game is, just think of it as a military version of Grand Theft Auto and i know you like some GTA.
The 360-hq description reads as follows: Mercenaries 2: World in Flames™ is an explosive open-world action game set in a massive, highly reactive, war-torn world. A power-hungry tyrant messes with Venezuela's oil supply, sparking an invasion that turns the country into a warzone.
But for you, international crisis is all upside: You are a mercenary, and you profit from chaos. Mercenaries 2™ features a slew of potential clients, all willing to pay you to do their dirty work. Dirty deeds, done for exorbitant fees. These are world powers with deep pockets, deep grudges, and enough arms and ammo to start World War III. This is your kind of environment.
Mercenaries 2™ features the latest and most dangerous in civilian and military tech, everything from shiny new sports cars, to the future-tech satellite-guided bunker-busting mini-nuke. Tanks, APCs, boats, luxury automobiles – you name it, you can have it delivered to you in real time. And if you run out of cash you can always 'acquire' the gear you need in the field.
If you see it, you can buy it, steal it, or blow the living crap out of it. Play your own way, or play with the help of a friend in the new cooperative multiplayer mode.
You are not a soldier. You don't have to play by anyone's rules. You have your own code: you will fulfill the terms of the contract, no matter what. Not everyone in the world of Mercenaries is as honorable. Everyone will try and screw you, given the chance. They think they can get away with it, because they don't know rule #1: EVERYBODY PAYS.

With very little time left till Mercenaries 2 hits the shelves i figured this wold be a good time to post the latest video on the co-op play and how that looks, with all the insane options at your finger tips you know you cant go wrong with this game so lets have a look.
When many of the year’s biggest games involve shooting people in the face, it should be no surprise that violence in games was again a common theme in videogame politics in 2007.
Contrary to popular belief, however, there are many popular titles that don’t involve bullets in bedlam. But you’re not going to hear politicians rally against the carpel tunnel you’ve developed from Guitar Hero. That kind of stuff doesn’t win votes.
And in an industry where blood and guts in games frequently splash headlines, former Entertainment Software Association boss Doug Lowenstein was well-aware of the challenges the industry would face after he left his post for new opportunities earlier this year.
"Damn it, get up there and defend [your work]," he implored in what would be his farewell speech at the Las Vegas DICE Summit in February. "… If you want to be controversial, fine, … that’s great. But damn it, don’t duck and cover when the shit hits the fan.”
Manhunt 2
And the shit did hit the fan in June, when Rockstar and Take-Two’s Manhunt 2 was granted an "AO" by the Entertainment Software Rating Board due to the game’s violent content. It proved to be one of the first big, public challenges for the newly-appointed management at Take-Two, and a microcosm for the struggle between the entire games industry and legislators. Manhunt 2 was edited, re-rated under an “M,” released in October, was hacked into, in turn releasing said violent content in the PSP version, and politicians, much like ambulance chasers, were all over it like stink on Donkey Kong.
In effect, Manhunt 2 acted as a catalyst for much of the videogame-related political headlines throughout the year.
In August, California Sen. Leland Yee demanded that the ESRB make the ratings process more transparent following the ESRB’s re-rating of the game, just a few months after the Federal Trade Commission lauded the ESRB for the strides made in keeping mature games out of minors’ hands. In November, the cross-party quartet of US Senators including Hillary Clinton, Joe Lieberman, Evan Bayh and Sam Brownback made a similar demand, calling for a “thorough review” of the ESRB in the wake of Manhunt 2’s release.
And after all that, the game launched to ho-hum sales and lukewarm reviews—a truly anticlimactic event upon which so much time, money and energy had been spent. But it still served, and continues to serve, as yet another lesson to an industry whose audience is now old enough to think for themselves.

One of the exciting things about E3, if not the most exciting thing, is the games. Getting to try out a long list of games from various companies before anyone gets to play them is the one of the pleasures of geekdom that can't quite be matched.
IGN regularly hosts a constantly updated list of all the games that will be present at E3 and even thought this year is "scaled down" and "invite only" it hasn't put a hurt on the amount of games that will be playable. The list is far from complete, but there's enough there to get your blood pumping in anticipation. I've posted some of the bigger company's lists after the jump, but to see all the titles currently confirmed, check out IGN's ever growing list. Flynn De Marco
