Just Cause - Viva Revolution (Xbox 360) price, value & rarity
Is Just Cause - Viva Revolution still worth playing in 2026?
An open world action game from Avalanche Studios, Just Cause drops an agent onto a huge tropical island he must destabilise, with a grappling hook and a parachute to string together stunts and aerial movement. The scale of the terrain, the freedom of chaos and the improbable acrobatics lay the foundations of a cult series of gleeful mayhem. Repetitive missions and a dated presentation temper the whole. A cathartic open world for fans of explosive sandboxes and outsized stunts without the fuss.
