Just got back from my local Walmart in Centereach, New York and they had a stack of copies for Blowout for $9.87. Your local Walmart may have the same. It is worth looking into. Pretty good 3D Contra clone for under $10.

Yeah, I just picked it up from my local Walmart for that price. It was well worth it.

It's also available for the Xbox and NGC. It's supposed to come out for the PC eventually, but it keeps getting pushed back.

C_A was asking if only the PS2 version is $4.99 at BB, not if the game exists for only the PS2. And, yes, I believe it is just the PS2 version that is that cheap at BB.

One player only. It's a decent game, but for the price you shouldn't pass it up. Especially if you like Abuse/Contra-style gameplay.

Yeah saw this and was debating whether or not it was worth it after seeing the gamerankings score.

Yup, at best buy, its the PS2. Saw this reviewed on Xplay and they say that its one of the games which if you miss doing a particular tasks, you will be running round figuring out what happened and its very fustrating trying to find a way out. Thats why i don't intend to get it even though its cheap. :(

Grabbed one today too. It's no Contra, but seems like it'll be worth the 10 bucks. Thanks for the heads up on this.

That's only if you don't use the map. It shows you where you need to go and what keys you already have. You really should never get lost or stuck.

Yep, I certainly wouldn't rely on X-play reviews for purchasing decisions. Oftentimes they are way, way off.
