I bought Dead Space. I was thinking at 9.99, that's pretty much the same price as renting it so it's not a bad deal. I already have mirror's edge, but I don't remember if I paid 7.99 last Christmas or not. If I did, oh well!
How do you know this?Quote:

Picked up ME2 for $24. The extra $12 they want for the deluxe edition just wasnt worth it. Theyd have to do better than a couple in game weapons and a comic book for that much.
Just beat NFS Undercover, it was well worth that 5 dollars. Not a groundbreaking game but something about it got me hooked and made me want to keep playing until the end. It probably was a combination of the great pacing (no race over 5 mins), diverse events, corny story, and fun gameplay. I don't know why it got so much flak, although it is not worth a full priced purchase it was still a lot of fun.
I just looked that game up. Now I wish I bought it. It has Maggie Q. She's imo one of the most attractive girls. She plays Chase Linh. She also has a new TV show called Nikita.Quote:

Yeah, I got Dead Space as well. Pretty Consolish - but not a bad game so far.Quote:

I only bought two games, Undercover and Dead Space. I will probably start Dead Space tonight. Undercover was well worth it.
Lol I escaped without buying any:)

Never played the sequel, is it worth it?
I'd say the sequel gave me $2.50 in fun. It wasn't fantastic and didn't live up to the original (so I've heard for the second part), but was kind of cool.
never played the original. picked it up this morning.
Any graphical mods or tweaks that i should be looking for?

I think it was more a limitation of the console than the devs' expectations of the audience. Regardless, the game was crap.Quote:

I can understand graphical limitations, but not story. There is no reason why Dues Ex 2 had to lose all the gameplay elements and deep customization that the first had.Quote:

I liked The Invisible War. ::shrug::
Nowhere near the class of the first game in the series, obviously, but I think it gets a worse rap than it deserves because it IS a sequel to one of the greatest games ever. It certainly does have its flaws, I admit, but I think if it had any other name on the box it would not be seen as the steaming pile of crap that most seem to think it is; Take Deus Ex out of the title and imho it would at LEAST have been considered to be on the good side of average, maybe better.
