Buying older games

Ive been trolling bestbuy's website and saw Kameo: Elements of Power drop 15 bucks to 14.99. Cheap games to me are a gamble, i read up on this game and it seems alright but i hear its the first 360 game made. How does it stand up to todays standard, im not really into the COD4 stuff wartime realistic to the bone games im more of a halo guy, imagination stuff thats not real.

Is this game worth picking up because if i rent it thats almost the same price and thats how i usually pick. If anyone has recetly played or bought this game is it a fun time and how long does it last and is their replay value, even if itsa just for achivements or is it more like work playing it more than once

Also, are there any oldergames i could pick up and enjoy since i only got the box this christmas

Thanks

No, if you have Gears as your profile pic I'd say it's not worth your time. I've played the demo a few times-- gameplay wise it's okay, but it is straddling the cutesy line. Only really good platformers can transcend the cute factor.

A few good older 360 games are: Dead Rising, Splinter Cell: Double Agent, Saints Row (a GTA clone), Crackdown (superheroes meet GTA) and Hitman: Blood Money.

I disagree with most in here...I thought Kameo was a great game by Rare' and while teetering with the "cutsey" concept is a strong platformer with some fun ass gameplay and graphics.

Gears of War, Forza two used at my Gamestop is like 20 bucks now too. Condemned is a great underrated game for just 15 bucks, Splinter Cell, Advanced Warfighter, Table Tennis is awful fun...

Kameo is a great game. Definately a great buy at 15 bucks. Pick it up.Packt
