Also, wouldn't asking if a game is good or bad make sense BEFORE you buy it? Just go play the damned game and make your own impression. If it rocks, then that's great. If it sucks, well, it's your $5. Get your money's worth.

well it was only $5 so i was tempted to "rescue" the poor game from the bin it was in.  and i ask because; even less than good games can be enjoyable as long as you know what youre getting into before hand.  being surprised by trash can harm any sort of enjoyment from it.

To be honest, I end up enjoying games more if I expect them to suck.  I had a blast with games like Bulletwitch, Golden Axe, Red Ninja, or Earth Defense Force 2017.  It's the blockbusters that tend to let me down.  I say dive in and form your own opinion.  No matter what we think, your the one that's going to end up playing it.

Sooner or later, I'm going to get around to playing this game.

Are Bulletwitch and Golden Axe worth $25 each? I've been looking at them for a while but the review's have kept me away.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

I recently completed my F.E.A.R. 2 playthrough and found abundance of quality in the game. It's a shame these gems are overshadowed by undeserving titles. Sheep.

I beat Bulletwitch twice (which is rare for me) and I intend to beat it again.  I loved it but it really is a shitty game.  Don't ask me to explain.  And Golden Axe is frustrating but I still enjoy it.  I don't think they're worth $25 to anyone else but me, though.  Give 'em a rent.

I personally love the condemned series is $5 is a pretty damn good deal for the game.

Condemned 2 was a big dissapointment for me after finishing Condemned Criminal Origins (one of the best horror games ever).
It's not bad at all, but I gave up on the 2nd or 3rd level, because I had way better games to play.
