Woo

Hail to the king baby.

After reading the latest review of the force unleashed I think I'm going to be transferring mine to a rental.

Oh? I'm guessing it gets a bit samey?

Poor level design and repitative gameplay is the big killer yes. I'm just waiting to see what gametrailers say as IGN gave it 7.3.

Eurogamer have just put theirs out, and it's a 3 pager. 7/10, and a good read. By the sounds of it I'd be more interested in it for the story than the gameplay.

I'll still be getting this I think, by trading something in for it. I can put up with linear level design if the gameplay is fun enough, and I enjoyed the demo enough to suggest I will.

petemc · 15-09-2008, 14:06

I played the demo about 4 times but I can see the QTE's being annoying. I don't think I can afford it or have enough games to trade in really. 7/10 just isn't strong enough a score to justify more debt

I'll get it in a few months when its £20.

Oh I don't doubt it will be good but I'm getting to the stage now where the games have to be very good for me to buy them. I'm just thinking I'll put the other £25 towards Fable 2 or Gears 2 and just spend a tenner renting it

Definite rental for me

I actually feel slightly swamped with games at the moment so I've hardly rented anything through Lovefilm lately, just films.
It just doesn't seem to have enough longevity to be worth a purchase for me.

Just read this Fable 2 preview and it sounds excellent, can't wait.
