Turning Point was a giant flop.
Kane & Lynch is probably worth $10
Frontlines is well worth $10

i still dont know why everyone bashed poor turok. to be honest, it was one of the most underrated games this year imo. sure it wasnt perfect, but god damn, it was fun. the environments were some of the better looking ones too. and the bow and knife were the most fun shooter weapons i used in a long time.
so yea, i URGE you to get turok. it was a damn good game that fell under the radar.
as for the others, does anyone know how frontlines is? thats the only one i might possibly get

I really liked Kane & Lynch it could have one of the better stories a game has had in a long time. The gameplay is a ltttle off but I would give it a 7.5 out of 10 just for the story alone. I might pick it back up for $10.00 just to have it back in my collection.

Has anyone that bought Rainbow 6: Vegas 2 received their copy yet? I'm starting to get a little annoyed. Yesterday was the 5th day and since they don't offer tracking (at least I can't find the option), I have no clue what the deal with the game is.

K&L was wonky on occasion (I describe it as throwing a ball with the arm you don't favor)-but I agree that the characters and overall 70's action paperback feel make it worthwhile. Ao2 was good fun, but single player leaves you with an AI that needs a lot of micromanaging and detracts from the game.
I enjoyed Turok, though some of the bosses are a pain.
For the short bucks, I'll try Turning Point.

Isn't Frontlines a online multiplayer game? If so get K&L because the community might be dead for Frontlines already but dont quote me I didnt bother to check.

Frontlines can be had new for $10. It's regularly $10 at Gamestop. It is worth $10.
Turok seems to be worth $10. Kane & Lynch is worth $10.
Turning Point is garbage.
handisnacks
12-11-2008, 08:56 PM
Definitely picking up Kane & Lynch. Played through it on PC and would love to play through it again on console for the achievements. Same development team as the Hitman series to, so it's quality++
Don't know why it wasn't more popular.
Turning Point was absolutely hilarious, and piss poor all around. It's another I played on PC. It's from those idiots at Spark Unlimited, who just created the horrendous Legendary, which is obviously doing just as terrible as Turning Point. I urge people not to even buy it at $9.99, you're better off seeing a movie.

Probably going to pick up Turning Point. Don't know why there's so much hate for the game; I thought the demo was fun. Might pick up Kane and Lynch; Going to have to try the demo again though because I remember the controls were kinda weird, but the presentation was nice.

As a PS3 owner, I don't know whether this is a blessing in disguise. Either way, I'm never staying up for one of these things again. Last night, I was up until 5-6 AM (compiling a report), and Army of Two is still available now.

Turok is superior to Turning Point in every single way.
What ignorance is floating around these forums, christ on a cracker!
Have you people even played Turning Point (IE: Not a demo). It's a horrible horrible game. It's not worth money, period. I probably wouldn't even sit through it completely if someone gave it to me. There's so many other better things to play, including every other game on sale right now at GameFly, haha.
Kevbo887

I personally thought Turok was an awesome game. I didn't expect a lot out of it, and got a ton out of it! Seriously, it is a fun game.

12-11-2008, 09:57 PM

My thoughts exactly. I'd probably bite on K&L if it was the PS3 version. As it is, it's probably a blessing anyway since I don't need any more games.

Seconded.
Turok is one of my favorite FPS's. I absolutely hated the demo, but after playing the full game.. it became one of my favorite 360 games quickly. VERY, VERY underrated.
I went out and bought it at full-price after I tried it from Gamefly - well worth $9.99, well worth atleast $40 or more too.
I'd also highly recommend Kane & Lynch, also highly underrated. It's not the best game ever, but is really fun and got a bad rep. over something stupid. The game also has GREAT multiplayer, even though many people also bash that, despite it being one of the most unique online experiences in along time.

Turning Point is awful, I wouldn't touch that for $4.99. The others, however, are tempting :) For 10 bucks ($9 with my 10% discount), Kane & Lynch and Turok both sound pretty good. Haven't looked into Frontlines much, so I can't really comment on that one.

If you're an existing Gamefly subscriber, you can qualify for either a 5% or 10% discount, but it depends on how long you've been a subscriber. I think 6 months gets you a 5% discount on all games, and 12 months gets you 10% off.

Only Kane & Lynch is worth the money. Bought it when it was $60 (Chinatown for $57) & I enjoyed it 100%. Definately deserved at least an 8 & while I can admit some of the problems it had, especially during the last part of game (that should have just been cut out) I feel most people just jumped on the bandwagon because of Jeff G getting fired from Nazispot over K & L.

I'm about half way through the single player. Its no COD4, but its entertaining. One memorable part has you in a tank battle with nukes going off! The game tries to pretends that its open and allows you to take multiple paths, but really each level gives you a set of objectives at different locations that you must complete before moving further into the level.
I enjoy the game and think it is worth $10 (got mine from FamilyVideo.com for $10 w/ FS).

Glad to see Kane & Lynch on the list! It's a easy decision for $10 i've been wanting to try it for awhile now.

Are there enough people playing Frontlines online?
As already stated, yes. This months OXM ranked some "older" games for online viability and they ranked this more viable online than GTA4. I got it on BF and it is fun, like SW: Battlefront. I haven't really played Battlefield, but I guess its closer to that and has some of the same developers.
And for those talking about BB next week, isn't it the PC version on sale? Which I may consider getting as well but probably not.
Anyway, as far as this sale goes I already have all of them either on 360 or GfW, and I got all of them cheap new.
EDIT: yeah, the earlier posts are not correct, the Frontlines sale next week at BB is ONLY the PC version. For those that care, it is GfW, but its not cross-platform, and isn't on Live, so no achievements either.

This months XBLM ranked some "older" games for online viability and they ranked this more viable online than GTA4.
I'd love to see that list. Is there a copy of it online?
Frontlines multiplayer was a blast. I stopped playing when Battlefield: Bad Company came out. But if the online community is still live, I might check it out again.
Frontlines single player was fun too. It's definitely no COD, and a step below Battlefield: BC. But it's an above-average game and easily worth $10. I paid full price on release date, and was happy with my purchase.

That is odd. I received my copy 4 days after I made my order. Try calling customer service.
Do you know the # or where on the site I can find it? I tried the contact us button and it just takes me to a form to send to them. When I choose "where's my game" after I tried to send it to them, I got a message asking to wait at least 7 days before I bug them. If it's not here today it would be nice to talk to someone as opposed to waiting for an email response.

Front Lines Fuel Of War is the best one of the bunch. well worth more than $10.
I hope so since I just bought it from GameFly last week for $14.99.
You always know that the prices are going to drop sometime but it burns your butt a bit more when it happens before you've even played the game! :bomb:

I picked up Turok and Frontlines, I would have picked up K&L but I already had gotten it on Target clearance a few months ago.
These deals are killing me.
In the past few weeks I have bought:
Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts
Gears of War 2
Star Wars: Force Unleashed
Dead Space
Left 4 Dead
Dark Sector
Unreal Tournament 3
Rainbow Six Vegas 2
Sonic Unleashed
Saint's Row 2
Fable 2
Turok
Frontlines: Fuel of War
Guitar Hero 2 Bundle + 2 Guitars
Thinking about my poor backlog makes me sick...

I'd love to see that list. Is there a copy of it online?
Not sure and I mistyped my acronym. It was in OXM. The only other game that had much life was Shadowrun, which I also ordered in the past week. Somebody else might remember the duds.

Yeah, I just found the article in OXM (Jan 2009 - Page 54-55). Frontlines got the best review. Looks like there was 100-250 players every time they played online. Not bad.
Here's the rest of the list:
STILL ALIVE
Frontlines
Shadowrun
BARELY BREATHING
Ace Combat 6
Unreal Tournament 3
FLATLINED
GTA 4
Stranglehold
Quake Wars
The Club

Cyco, I was in the same boat as you and I made a thread about it in the Video Game Deal discussion thread.
Ironically, the same day I made that thread is the same day it shipped, which was Monday(I still haven't received it yet.)
When did you order and at what time? My thinking is that if you ordered the game later in the day i.e. afternoon or what not, it's taking longer to ship, since the majority of the people who posted in my thread had recieved their copies already. I ordered in the afternoon and that's the only reasoning I can think of? where are you from, maybe it has to do with location too? I'm from Jersey and I know the closest warehouse from GF is somewhere in Pennsylvania, I think Pittsburgh?

I got the "game shipped" email on the 3rd. I think I bought it in the afternoon. I don't remember though. I'm in Texas and I have no clue if there is a warehouse near by. I wish they did like everyone else that does shipping and have a way to show shipping status.

Some of these games (K & L, Army of Two etc.) I would never buy at full price. In fact I may have mocked them when they first came out, vowing never to buy them.
But dang does it feel good to get such good deals! It must be a CAG thing, I get a natural high getting such good deals and hoarding all these backlog games.
Not to mention Gamefly's used games come in such great condition they often look better than "new" games from Gamestop (actually not that hard to do). I love opening my mailbox and seeing that little manilla envelope from Gamefly, I need help.

You are too kind! I would have said it was worth 50 cents :) The controls alone are enough to ruin that entire game.
Picked up Kane & Lynch and Turok... for 10 bucks, those two games seem to be good enough to try. Still on the fence about Frontlines.

12-12-2008, 12:24 PM
Okay - I bought a copy of Turok. Unless some super-awesome deal comes up, this is my last game purchase of 2008. On the plus side, if the game sucks, Gamefly is trading the game back for $9.
Btw, I did get one of my two Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 games in the mail yesterday. The game I got was flawless - but oddly enough the game case was cracked. Oh well. Hope my other copy is equally nice-looking. Hopefully it's in the mail today.

If anyone's trying to get Frontlines, and they want a new copy, BB is having it on sale for $9.99 starting on Sunday. Listed in Speedy's weekly ad.
PMing at CC would get it for $7.99 + tax, as they have it for $29.99.

EDIT: I screwed that one up. How did I search for it and read it earlier and only saw the Windows version. My bad.
Now I'm kind of pissed I bought it around BF new for $15 I think, although at least I've already played it. Its pretty unusual for decent games to get to that $10 level. That's lower than CC's standard bin pricing.
No way I'd get Gamefly's used stuff with that upcoming.

So Frontline for $10 at BB on Sunday? I'm in for that. Also, when I tried to order K&L, it said it was $12.99. Anyone know why? I'd bite for 9.99, as I did for AO2.

Probably because you didn't read the old topic and the first post and tried to order before the posted time. ;)
Click the link again, it's been $9.99 since like 3AMish EST.
I woke up today to find shipping notices for this already and the AoT from yesterday. :)

You know, despite the fact that no one bought it, it didn't do too poorly in the reviews. It has a Metacritic rating of 69, and it seems somewhat interesting. I keep meaning to rent it, but I just have so many other games to play.

the game was very underrated. definately one of my best under the rader/underrated games this year. dark sector was another, but that was last year.
Either way, i bought the game on release day for $60 bucks. i actually only got it b/c i was one of the few people that loved the demo, most people hated it it. anyways, come the full game, it was a frigging blast. i had a ton of fun playing it and it was worth my $60 bucks far and wide. the multiplayer was fun and awesome too.
i will admit honestly, the game has its problems, but it does a lot of stuff right. The environments are honestly some of the best looking environements in a shooter. it actually uses color in a good way unlike resistance 2's acid trip through candyland...(aka R2 is too damn colorful), the dinosaurs are a blast to kill. they are kinda stupid, but my god, killing them never gets old :P, and lastly, the bow and the knife are quite honestly the most fun FPS weapons i got my hands one in a long time.
so yea, if anyone hasnt picked up turok yet, DO IT, its a great game thats very underrated and has fell under the radar this year unforuntately
