Nope, Riddick is strictly a one player game. I suppose the online functionality is for downloading new content.

I'm actually considering Driv3r for 14.99 after GGC at BB. I know it's bad, but I like that genre and I liked the first driver game and it's only 15$
schultzed
11-20-2004, 07:18 PM
I bought Riddick this summer ($28 with Target raincheck) beat it and dumped it on Ebay . . . for my cost.
I wasn't very impressed with it. It was alright. Here, I'll give you a tip for the hand-to-hand fights . . . keep pressing the buttons--you'll win.
I didn't find everything in the game but there was no incentive to really investigate.
Graphically it is pretty sharp but very buggy.
Maybe worth $15 . . . but I'll only rebuy it if I can get it for $5.
Manhunt is much better in terms of atmosphere and challenge.

For $15, it's not horrible money wasted.
I picked it up for Xbox at Target for $21.88 and wasn't too broken up over it.

I just went to BB and picked up Riddick, after PM tomorrow, $13.49.
Brought back my unopened copy from Target I bought on raincheck for $25.88.
Riddick for $15 sounds great, I think I might pick that up if I can't get in on EB's sale. Have a link to EB's ad though? I *might* be making a trip near an EB on black friday (the closest one is 60 miles away), if the ad has anything else then I might make a stop there.

CC's ad from last week (the red book) actually carries over until this Wednesday, so anything on sale in there last week is still on sale this week - including the coupons (the percent off DVDs, BOGO CD/DVD media, etc etc etc).

I intended to PM it at BB, and found the nice little clarification of the BB PM policy that has them only PMing their own prices, not PM + 10%. They'll do PM + 10% off of someone else's price.
So, back to BB it went and to CC I went, to pick it up for $13.49.

Well you bought it so of course they are supposed to hold it back. Doesn't always work out that way though.
This thread is pretty funny everybody going ga-ga over Riddick and fretting about not being able to use an expired coupon when it is going to be $10 at EB Friday. I didn't even care for it that much whe I rented it and I will probably at least see if the PC port is worthwhile before I buy it for Xbox. Although for $10 it is definitely in impulse buy Black Friday range. $15 is the price after GGC for about every game eventually, so I don't get that excited about it I guess.

Of course the definition of "brand new" at EBGames can be debated since both B&M and mail order they've given me opened games sold as "new".
That's why I stopped buying games from EB Games B&M and online...
I just fight them and demand a game sealed by the manufacturer when they try to sell me anything else. I lucked out this morning and got the last copy of Riddick in either of the EB's near me. I also picked up Max Payne 2 for a gift, though I don't know if it is new or "new" since the shrink wrap looked kinda crappy. Then again, after 2 hours of sleep and 2 hours of black friday shopping, I was pretty much willing to accept anything to get out of the store and get home and back to sleep.

I got Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne (Xbox) for $9.99 at Best Buy, today. It was so crowded there! I was very lucky to get the second to last copy...:D
