Second Sight is at Media Play for $12 and Still Life released at $20.
Has anyone played these games? Are they even worth those prices or are they coasters regardless of price.

Still life is pretty good, but only if you like adventure games, and its a pretty easy one.

Second Sight is very good. Its almost absurdly similar to Psi-Ops, but SS has a better story and characters, gameplay is about the same.
Second Sight is not a bad game. The controls aren't nearly as well executed as they are in Psi-Ops (making Psi-Ops a better game IMO) but it's worth checking out for around $10 IMO.
Haven't played Still Life.
Second Sight was pretty good. Well worth $10. It's only downfall is the controls.

Second Sight is also $10 at CC, if you can find it.

Just started Still Life the other day-- so far, I like it a lot. Very intriguing story (you are trying to catch a serial killer ala CSI and it takes place in Chicago, so I recognize a lot of it) and the graphics are some of the best on the Xbox. The close ups of the dead bodies are fucking horrible....I've seen one so far-- a dead bald headed punk chick all cut up in a bathtub full of blood. it is pretty nasty. I hear they get worse.
The voice acting is also great, and the gameplay is point and click adventure style. Think Resident Evil 1-3 without the action and more complex puzzles.
On the negative side, I hear it's short, 8-10 hours, and there's obviously no replay value once you solve the puzzles and catch the killer.

I have Still Life, but have yet to play it. Can't neat $20 (or $15 at BB). I didn't like Second Sight, I thought it was boring to play. I thought it was going to be an FPS though cause it was made by the Timesplitters dudes. I think I like Psi Ops a lil better but not much.
