Hell yeah.  Although this is one of the titles that sometimes have really long loadtimes which cause me to worry aboug getting RRODed.  Still worth it though.

It's only hard because people get upset if they can't get the best ending on the 1st try.  There're pretty fun endings to watch even when you "fail".  I don't think the game was ever intended to be a "play through once" kinda game.  It's more fun to go for the best ending when you start from the beginning with a decently powered character.

I felt like for $8.50, it was a decent investment.  That leaves only Lost Planet, Ghost Recon and Condemned on my list of Xbox 360 games to get when reasonably affordable (eight dollars!).  I was thinking of maybe nabbing Prey for a similar price if I could get it.

Isn't there some $10 off a 24.99 used game coupon for Gamestop/EB right now?

Not that I'm aware of.  But there are so many fucking specials that I can't really keep track.  The only thing I can tell you guys that if you trade in 5 games or more, you get 30% extra trade-in credit on each game.  And you can stack that with your 10% extra credit if you have an edge card.  And I think it's even possible to get an additional 20% extra credit if you pre-order Halo TRIPLE, Guitar Hero TRIPLE or Mario Galaxy.  So that's potentially like 60% extra trade-in credit on each game you trade in.

I'm a new xbox 360 owner and bought Dead rising along with bioshock. I started playing bioshock first, probably about 85% through now, put in dead rising to mix things up. I haven't touched bioshock since... It's an awesome game $8.50 is a great deal.

Dead Rising was the reason I bought my X360, roughly a year ago now.

Awesome fucking game. Finally beat it over the weekend; didn't feel like going through overtime mode though so I'm finally sending it back to Gamefly. I'll definitely buy the game in the future, I want to try going through the mall again with my powered-up Frank.

To get the bonus for the pre-orders ALL of the trade in credit has to go toward the game you pre-order though.

Still, right now Gamestop has some good trade deals.
