Official "Which Game Should I Buy Or Rent"

Ok, I'll pick it up in the next couple days.

I have TP, but I haven't played many Zelda games(or puzzle for that matter) in my life, so I don't play it often.

Majora's Mask (not sure if this is on VC?) and OoT are great Zelda titles, even by today's standards. Much better than TP, IMO.

Should I buy Guitar Hero On Tour DS

If you enjoy a short amount of songs but are too heavily biased on the console versions due to being a DS fanboy, then yes. And if you don't qualify for the specification, you would then just be wasting money.

I've been thinking of getting Battalion Wars 2, but I've been pretty skeptical about liking it. I'm a big fan of RTS-type games, but I hate missions where u have to protect a group of civilians or something (it usually takes me quite a while to work up the incentive to play the game through those missions), so can someone please tell me if there's much of that in this game.

Kamikaze · 06-29-2008, 07:53 AM

Yes it is involved with about 40 percent of the missions.

I haven't played through the whole game yet but 40% sounds about right. There's no defending civilians that I know of but you do have to protect your anti-air and such in some of the missions; although I haven't found any of them to be very difficult yet.

Maybe try renting it first. I really didn't think I would like BWii but I only paid $15 for it and I've enjoyed it more than I thought I would.

If you are a fan of GH then yes. It only has 15 songs though so unless you have friends to play against it doesn't have much longevity.

GH on DS is completly stupid. Sorry, but you might as well be pushing the A-B-Y-R buttons.

It only has 20 songs, not 15.

Battalion Wars 2. Buy or Rent?

ssbb_lover · 06-30-2008, 01:17 AM

Rent, IMO. Unless you can find it for $30 or less (preferably less).

manufan15 · 06-30-2008, 02:36 AM

Battalion Wars 2 isn't even good enough to rent IMO. Just not a quality title; very boring.

Oops I did a typo, was meant to be 25.

Should I rent or buy these:

I don't actually have MOH:H2 but it seems like it's the best online shooter on the Wii at the moment (unless you live in Australia).

The Godfather is great, I really liked the motion controls for fighting and executions. It is a GTA sandbox style game although it reminds me of Mafia more than GTA.

Scarface is probably more similar to GTA with its more modern setting, although I still prefered The Godfather for its controls.

Both games offer around 40+ hours play and are worth a rental; unless you can find them cheap to buy.

Thanks, I'll have to do more research to see which one I'd like more.
