Wanted to know how people feel about this one. I am on the fence on if I want to get this or not.

It will see a price drop in a month, and it will line bargain bins for years to come.

The game is getting bad reviews. I personally wont play it. I just don't have the free time to play mediocre games.

Its another game in the long line of GTA rip-offs that get bad reviews and then drop to $20 bucks in 2 months. Trust me my friend wait for the price drop.

This isn't a sandbox game at all... more like Max Payne.

Everywhere else has it for $39.99 and I'm pretty sure the original MSRP was $49.99

Best Buy, you say? $19.99 after coupon? ;)
I'm not so sure it's even worth $19.99, though...

One Gamestop 10 miles away from the one I work at got a used copy on the first day. The guy who bought the used copy returned it at my store today.
So that tells you how good the game is.

Hey, people did this same thing with 50 Cent: Bulletproof so I guess they aren't worth it until they hit that magical price of 5 bucks.
This reminds me of the many times they tried to get me to pre-order this and I just laughed everytime they do this. At the closest Gamestop to me they actually sold out all of pre-orders for it so they probably will have a nice little amount of these used soon.

I saw this game last night for $29.99. I didn't even know it had come out.
Actually the cop part of this game didnt sound too bad to me... I always wanted a game where you play as a cop ever since Fox Interactive gave info on a COPS game back in 2001, but since then info on the game has seemed to vanish.
The sad thing is, 25 to Life will probably actually sell decently or well for the first few months just as all the other trendy urban games have.
At least it doesent look nearly as bad as Konami's Crime Life: Gang Wars
