Wish I could afford it.

Wife and I are trying to stock up on food storage, water storage, ammunition, and other survival apparati this month, so video games just aren't in the budget unfortunately.

I'll probably rent when it hits Blockbuster on Friday.

Let me know when you pick it up. What's your gamertag? I traded in a few games I'm never going to play again and gamestop had 20% extra trade in value if applied towards R6. So I knocked $30 off of the price tag.

How good is it? I got a check in the mail today I might be willing to spend.

I love it all the goodness of the first one and then some. I'm going to be playing this one for awhile with the new ace's and promotion system. I just made lance corporal today.

I just beat the story mode. I have to say it was a lot shorter than I expected. I'm not surprised most of the games out these days only seem to be about 6-8 hours long.

yeah, I'd rent it first then decide for yourself if it's worth it... I'm keeping it for now, but scratching my head as to why they didn't release it as a $39-$49 'full game' like GRAW2, Black Arrow or Summit Strike.

IMO, after hating it something awful initially - it's OK overall, but more like a $60 map pack (most of which are from Raven Shield; only 4 new maps) & you can sprint now.

The UnrealEngine3 makes textures look more detailed, but not necessarily better overall graphics if that makes any sense, unfortunately at a high tax on the framerate & general motion jitter. It has more levels, but game is essentially shorter than original Vegas. Level design is also much less cohesive than original Vegas, though difficulty is a slight tad higher.
