It's not often that I will replay a demo, let alone immediately after finishing it, but Renegade Ops was good enough that I wanted to play more of it right away. This is a twin stick shooter featuring vehicles. It's been done before with games like Assault Heroes but this is made by Avalanche Studios, makers of Just Cause 2 and their pedigree shows in this game. Big explosions, flashy graphics and insane weapons are all important parts of the game.

Jeeps, tanks, bullets, explosions and power ups. That's Renegade Ops. |
There is only one character available in the demo, a lady who drives an armored mini van. There is a strong machine gun, a rocket launcher and an EMP blast, the lady's special weapon. The demo is a mission where I had to go save civilians by transporting them from their stranded location to a nearby church. I also had to take out missile launchers and a fleet of tanks. The last little tease is a short stint in a helicopter.
This game is really fun. The physics bring a lot to the game and it's just plain old twin stick shooting fun. I will buy this game once I have time to play it, that's for sure.
