Introduction:
Just Cause is an action-packed fantastic game packed with exciting content with lots to do. The game takes place on an island called San Esperito and you play as a top secret agent called Rico Rodriguez.
The Island has come to some attention of the Defence Department by virtue of its attempts to purchase enriched uranium on the world market. Nobody believes the presidents excuses and its clear he’s buying this stuff for weapons.
So this means that you are sent on a completely covert operation…
