Good Fun Games To Pick Up Cheap

donnbradman

Can anyone recommend some good fun games that I could pick up cheap to ease the wait for Grand Theft Auto. I'm open to anything (preferably sports, but doesn't matter), no matter how old etc.

If you haven't played it before Mirror's Edge can be bought for pennies pretty much everywhere and is still a ton of fun.

The Zone of Enders HD collection is on sale on Xbox Live for 14.99 this week and they're too great games, while the underated Silent Hill Downpour is only 9.99 there too.

Which NBA do you have? If you don't have the download of NBA Jam on Xbox Live (probably on PS2 too), I'd reckon that would be worth playing. Two on two basketball, with silly big cartoon heads. Great fun with a few mates around. I only ever got the demo, and still managed to have great fun with it.

Downloaded Nba jam and I thoroughly enjoying it. Would any of those baseball games be worth a go. Thinking of going into town and looking for mirrors edge tomorrow

No, it's not at all like Dark Souls. It's sort of a parkour game with a rubbish story but it is quite fun jumping around massive skyscrapers. It's quite short and it gets a bit boring near the end but you should be able to find it for €5-10 and it's well worth it at that price.

Sounds kind of like you've covered yourself pretty well with regards to sports games. Only thing I could think of that's quite fun would be Fight Night. Other games to try would be Saints Row 2 and 3 (similar games to GTA but without all of the seriousness), Just Cause 2 (another open-world type game based on an island and where you can do insanely unrealistic stunts with a grappling hook) and Far Cry 3. Spec Ops: The Line if you're into shooters too.

Lollipop chainsaw is going for €7 online and €9 in stores (gamestop) recently so could definitely be worth a look if its humour is your kind of thing. The pricepoint really helps overcome its major flaw of being an incredibly short game.

If you have a PS3, getting PS Plus for €15 would get you Saints Row 3, Uncharted 3 and Payday which are all pretty fun games that aren't too much of a time investment.
