Even at $5 I would not touch that game.
I got a 5 dollar credit toward another game in January as well, so is it worth 0 dollars?Quote:

Steam Sales have forced me to be more selective in my tastes. In addition to cost I must also consider time. With a back log of 20+ games, I can't justify acquiring mediocre games even if they are cheap or free since I have so many high quality games waiting to be played.Quote:

Also, the game has gotten some decent reviews from a few other boards I mention; nothing groundbreaking, but good enough.Quote:

It will do that. I finished the game twice. I played it on 360 and enjoyed it. At the time I was completely bored of shooters and was at a busy time when I didn't have much time to game and playing it in 30 min chunks here and there worked good. Some of the combos were fun but zero replay ability. I did it solo then couch coop with my son and sold it.Quote:

One tip though - the game is super easy, but if you want any kind of challenge at all, don't pick Reinhart. He may start off slow on the damage, but once you pump and synergize his skills, he single-handedly wrecks everything. I went with him because I wanted to play a caster, and my friend playing the warrior gets really annoyed because I can wipe everything off the screen before he can get more than 1 hit in. I have to sit back and do nothing just so he can have fun too. :p
Admittedly, I'm pretty liberal with what counts as being "worth it" for video games. I'm considerably more stingy in other areas of my life.Quote:

Then just rip them to iTunes. You know you can check CDs of music out from the library...just saying ;)Quote:
