Just pay $5 to rent Enslaved for a day. It takes a few hours to beat it anyway.

I'm just trying to get the $25 coupon to get Vanquish since my current coupon expires after today. Playing would've Enslaved would've been a plus. I'll rent it in the future.

You haven't been able to get refunds on open games in years.

I miss those days at Electronic Boutique  :'(

At best buy right now:

K&L2 = $20
Split/Second = $20
Lego Rock Band = $15

Is Split Second any good?  I sort of liked Pure and I love Wipeout/Burnout but the demo seemed gimmicky and seemed like it would get old quick.


I played the Split/Second demo, it was really, really fucking fun. You should try the demo out and see what you think. I think I may pick it up.

I 1000'd Split Second and I think it's the best racer in a long time since Burnout.

I felt the same way when I played it. The gameplay is solid and changing the track while you're on it is a neat idea.

Hmm, I might wind up buying Fable after all with that deal. One of my friends will probably buy Star Wars and maybe Smackdown, I might pitch in for Fable.

But then I'd have to play Fable...

$10 isn't bad for Conviction if you also plan on finishing the co-op.  On realistic, the solo campaign can probably be finished in a few days (10 hours I think).

I would definitely not buy Fable 3 right now even though I loved the first one.  RPG's drop in price fast.

I'm gettin Fable from Amazon. Used $20 cred from DR2, and getting $20 cred back. Since I dont care for pre-order items, Amazon is the best place to get it.

Enslaved is a rental. It's just a shallow, cinematic one-and-done game, don't waste more than $10-$15 on it.

Nah, there's plenty of shitty Japanese action/adventure games too. Like Ninja Blade.

edit: not that I'm saying Enslaved is as bad as Ninja Blade. it's okay.

Complete, disc condition can vary, but my experience has been in excellent condition. IF there are issues they will probably ask you to send the game back then they will refund you.
