Default Re: Games not worth the clearance price.

I've never not bought a game that I wanted just because of reviews. I'm a fan of making my own judgments on things instead of letting others sway my own decision of what I may and may not like.

That said, I have taken a chance on a few games that I've seen for sale while paying my phone bill that I ended up enjoying.

Fuel is a fun post-apocalyptic arcade-style racing game. I paid 10 bucks for 75+ vehicles, 14,400 square km, (5, 560 square m for you others). It got horrible reviews, but I think it's a fun arcade-y racing game.

Another I randomly picked up without hearing anything about it a long time after its release was Rainbow Six: Vegas 2. I've liked the Rainbow Six games since N64, so I thought I'd give it a go, and I still end up playing it with friends, now.

Most of the time I know when I like a game or not. But when it's a game I wasn't really interested in I try to go with reviews of editors that I know coincide with me in most of the things said. And that's the thing, Yahtzee pretty much says everything I'm thinking about games and I tend to agree with him on 95% of the things he says. And if the main gameplay mechanic of the game doesn't work as planned, I don't think there's a point in giving it a try.
