Key points
- Games for Windows - LIVE removed from the Steam version.
- PC exclusive "The Mercenaries: No Mercy" Mode.
- Gold Edition base content included in the Steam version; DLC available as "Untold Stories Bundle".
- Letterboxed black bars in cutscenes.
- Some poor textures.
- Very close FOV; mod below is a subpar workaround which may cause cutscene crashing and odd aiming angled, and doesn't work with fan-costumes.
- When using keyboard/mouse controls, laser sights become a crosshair and there is no way to use laser sights. A controller is recommended for this game.
- Has a green filter.[1]

in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (21690) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
