At my best guess, I spent close to $500 on video games in 2008. It sickens me to think of it. One of my goals this year was to spend no more than the price of two premium games at retail ($120) and to see how far my enjoyment goes.This means that I didn’t want to spend more than that amount out of pocket total for the year. My game purchases for the year so far:Mount & Blade (Steam)—$7.50Monster Trucks Nitro (Steam)—$10Soldner-X: Himmelssturmer (PS3)—$10Battlefield: Bad Company (PS3)—$15Grand Th

1 Star Only if you’re THAT bored.
I actually paid the $40 for this game in the store as a surprise for my boyfriend who really wanted it. I thought it might be cool too, but I ended up hating it. He on the other hand, absolutely loves it. I have no idea why. The graphics pretty much suck, the games are either pointless or impossible, it’s not fun AT ALL for a single player and you really want to break the t.v when the carni basically says that you might as well just end your life because you missed an impossible target. The prizes don’t even unlock new games. They are just “super” versions of the one you just played. Oh, great, so now I have a new game to get tired of in less than 30 seconds. My friend and I only played it one night because we live in Pennsylvania, hate the cold, and were desperate for SOMETHING to do. We put it on the competition mode and it did keep us busy. Even though it literally went through the same 5 games time after time. This game really is only a last resort for the most desperate boredom. But really just borrow it from a friend who was stupid enough to buy it. Don’t waste your own money.

5 Stars Fun to play
This game is great in re-creating all the well known games from the midway. Good family night fun!

1 Star Modern Day Slavery
I do not understand how this game lets you edit a person but you cannot change the skin tone of your character. You can have fairytale elephant feet and ridiculous antler horns but you can ony play as a caucasion person. It is the 21st century and this game still has not gotten with the program.

At first I shrugged it off unitl I started noticing the ring leader was always white and the carni who had to work the booths was black; in every game though. the only black people in the games are carni rode people. So they did have the technology to create people of color but chose to only feature them as modern day slaves!!!

If I had not bought this racist game used from Game stop I would have taken it back the same day.

The new is catching on with the old. Local senior centers have begun to implement the Wii into daily activities, allowing seniors to play the Nintendo video game system daily.
