I'd wait. I men I personally wouldn't say a ~10 hour campaign is worth $6/hour, ever.

I'm cheap, if I don't get an hour per dollar spent it has to be really damn good or else it isn't worth the money.

I look at quality of time. Like I spent an hour or so mining for shiterals in Mass Effect 2. Thanks Mass Effect 2.

Was that time really adding anything besides pain to my game?

Whereas something like Portal, I play through it enjoying the fuck out of the entire game, and can't find one wasted moment. Now obviously each game ain't gonna be portal, but a lot of games have a lot of "filler". And not fun filler like UFO missions in XCom, but no, actual just straight up filler, like "replay this level, but with MOAR" or "now go do some fuckaduck repetitive side quests"

Also don't play if you're offended very easily, but this is South Park, so I don't feel like I need to say that.

Like... I'll spoil one minor scene as a litmus test for if you'll be offended...
You have to cross dress as a girl to go into an abortion clinic to steal records. Then in order to actually have them believe you, you have to have an abortion. Then, later, you have to perform an abortion on Randy who is dressed up like a woman, meaning you're spreading open and vacuuming out his asshole. There's a whole mini game.


If that doesn't offend you too badly you'll enjoy the game immensely

But I know for some people it might be too much.

So I just got invited to the closed Alpha of Chroma, that Harmonix rhythm-shooter. I wanted to A) Brag, and B) see if there were any other people on here who are in yet.

I started watching a playthrough of Stick of Truth, because I'm not really that into south park so I'd likely never buy it, but so far it is funny and enjoyable.

I know I'm pretty lat eon this one, but hotline miami is pretty fucking good. It plays like an action puzzle game that has just the right amount of random to make it amazing. Big thanks to TBM for the game.

Mini Metro

Really cool aesthetic and neat gameplay(if a bit rough).

High score is in the 600's.

Don't know my high score overall but I just played and got 270. I love the game though, and've been playing it for like a week.

he seems to have somewhat stronk attacks and magic, but the mechanic is that he gets stronger the more debuffs on him and the more damage on him

At that price, it's a fantastic buy. Infinite's in my top 10 for favourite games I've played. Story on it's pretty great.
