    and a number of those games are in gamestop's current summer sale. i picked up dragon's dogma: dark arisen and f1 race stars yesterday brand new for €30, so even if you don't have two to trade in, you can get some at gamestop and deadpool only costs 30.99 in total :)

    Rented it for a euro due to an xtravison come back offer. It's funny. Gameplay isn't great but it's probably the funniest game I've ever played.

    Picked it up this morning...the fighting is pretty much the same as every spider-man game activision have been involved in but the story and one-liners so far have been pretty good.

    Finished Deadpool earlier (trust me, it doesn't take long)

    As suspected, the gameplay isn't great, the controls are pretty bad, the frame rate is shocking in places (and isn't something I normally even notice in games other people are complaining about it) and the overall standard of the game design is pretty poor. There doesn't even seem to be any hidden collectibles or secret areas or anything, which is almost standard in a game like this because once you've seen all the funny bits, it would be the only real reason to play through the game again.

    That being said, the humour and some of the stuff in it is f*cking brilliant and almost makes the whole thing worthwhile.

    So it's a bad Spider-Man with ridiculous humour?

    Huh. Kinda fitting.

    Reminds me of Rogue Trooper, a game i love that isnt really good but i like it as it has Rogue Trooper and Gunnar and his mates were in it.

    Again not a great game but the character end of it was very good much like Deadpool, its a **** game but if you have any interest in Deadpool you will finish it.

    reckon some Deadpool fan boyz will even say its a good game, its not :D

    I finally managed to get around to getting this today (considering it was pulled from sale on PC for a while). While i'm about 70% through it (it's fairly short by the looks of it), i'll mirror the statements above. Average gameplay, simple hack'n'slash with a few guns thrown in, bad level design. However, it's the first game in a long time (since Tiny Tina in Borderlands 2) that has genuinely made me laugh out loud.

    I know about Deadpool, but never read any of the comics or watched anything he's in (we won't mention X-Men). But i am pleasantly surprised at how well the one-liners and jokes in general really are. Some serious funny moments. If the film script is anything like this, i'm going to be seriously impressed!

    I finished it last night (Steam says 6 hours), and i have to say that it was highly enjoyable. Especially that level for
    Death, where she asks you to collect 3 souls for the speak/hear/see no evil. Just fantastic!

    It was fairly enjoyable to play through the first time, mostly for the humour and Deadpool-ness as opposed to the gameplay. Wouldn't bother with it a second time though.

    Hope they do a better job with it than the Prototype rereleases.
