I played for a little while on their front page. Pretty cool.

this game literally killed my social life last week...could be my favorite game that i've ever played.  multiplayer mode is hilarious.

i was going to hold off for awhile, but i don't think i can

Same, I don't want to shell out $60 for any game but not one person I've come across has had a negative thing to say about it.

went to rent it today and both blockbusters were out. signing up for gamefly now...

[phattymatty]

there are some really funny glitches in this game...has anyone seen people fly yet?  i saw it the other day.

there's also one glitch where it's a woman's body, but she has a donkey face and you can ride her around.  

so i guess i've had it like a week now and i can say that its hands down the most fun game i've ever played.  i've never laughed so much during a video game before.

Sarah Jessica Parker is in the game? Must be a Sex and the City tie in.

Along with the donkey woman, there's a man cougar and a crow deer. Oh, and a dog sniper.

HAHA, that is awesome. I signed up for Gamefly Monday and have yet to get a game. It seems over priced and if it takes a week to get a game that ridiculous. Anyone else use Gamefly?

[phattymatty]

i'm still kinda new to xbox but aren't all games $60 when they come out? i have maybe 7-8 games now and this and maybe madden are probably the only 2 that i think are actually worth the money.

[General_Failure]

I believe they are, yes.

[mussa]

Thats the thing, not enough games out there that are really worth it. Gamefly gets you to sign up for 8.95 for one game. then after first month it goes to 15.95 for one game. if it takes a week to get a game, then thats a week wasted and if i get a game, i'll prob want to play it and get into it, so that leaves you with only 3 weeks to get into it or send it back and wait for another game. just doesn't seem like a game should cost you 16 a month in theory. thats basically 190 a year to rent 12 games...when you can buy 3 games for the same amount and have them til you get sick of them, trade them in or wipe your ass with them...

this is why you sell games on ebay.   most popular games, ala red dead redemption will hold decent value for a long time.   Buy it for $60 and if you are done in a few months you will probably still get around $45 for it.  After basic shipping and fees thats about $20 to "rent" it for 3 months or more....
