I really don't think it is at full price, wish I would've waited.

Wait for a sale or price drop. It is a decent game, but not worth full price.

In all honesty it's only worth a rental.

Well, it's not AAA so it probably sucks. In all seriousness, that's a silly question to ask when GS has a written review. Read the review, weigh the content with your personal tastes, then make a judgement call. There's no point in making a thread which could be considered blog worthy.

If you want a good game get resistance 3 that game was kick ass. I just rented it the other day and it was awesome.

I personally don't think so. The campaign is way too short to merit paying full-price for.

Compared to Skyrim, Arkham City and BF3, I'd say Rage is not worth it.

For sure! It may not be the best game out but it is a very solid title, with great graphics, and a lot of content for your $$. Think Fallout, but with much better graphics. Actually I enjoyed this better than Fallout.

A friend gifted it to me and I'm still downloading it.

From what I hear, its post apocalyptic anti Fallout. Less exploring, no world shaping, no complex inventory management or health and radiation bars. Just you, your guns, vehicles, and a bunch of people who have no moral qualms with assigning a mute the task of killing dozens of dangerous raiders.

I love Fallout so I might not totally dig it, but it sounds fun and I've been waiting years for it.

No. It's only worth a rental. The game is a chore to go through and just about every single mission has you play as a delivery boy. Go here, drive throught wasteland, kill bad guys/pick up said item, go back to town give item. Rinse repeat.

Having finished the campaign tonight.

and i'm renting i'll say this.

great graphics, great character designs, great town and area designs, very nice colors.

what a crap story though. Totally did not suck me in.

and i know it sounds silly but a game like these that try to diffuse the genre's, i need a decent story.

That's one of the major complaints that I've been seeing, that Id just couldn't tie the story together. And it would have only helped the game if they did it well, at that.

Still, the game looks awesome and I know I'll be playing the PC version when I finally get around to buying it.

Just picked up the game last night, and I'm having some fun with it (still, post-apocalyptic settings is as enjoyable as it sounds...after playing previous games like Doom and Wolfenstein, I find Rage's environments to be a little depressing at times, especially just playing some Fallout New Vegas before it :P). Anyway, with a load of awesome games coming out literally pretty soon, I'd say Rage can wait.
