...We'd like to apologise for earlier, ATOR based confusion. We here at the Cardboard Compound have dealt with the appropriate troublemakers.

Max Payne plays like an FPS. 3 crappy levels, 18 really solid ones.

But worth it? That was in the running.

Very, very worth it. Indeed, the Frugal Gamer did not experience the joy of Max in a delicious bout of frugality, but instead, full retail prices. It was quite worth it at $49.99.

Serious Sam II for mindless, yet fun, nonsense.

Was going to get Sam 1 if I could find it, will try for both.


They were both cheap when they were first released... even cheaper today. This is a quality course of action on your part.

Yeah. I'm trying to ration my game purchases a little (I bought Freedom Force for 12 bucks with NOLF, which was only 8), but Max, NOLF2 (which is good, yeah?), Sam 1 and 2, and Jedi Knight 1 and 2 are up. How about RtCW or MoH? Can I finish all of these before Half Life 2 comes out?


Max will take you ten hours. Sam 1 & 2 just a wee bit more than that for each, depending on how often you save your work. NOLF2 -- and the Frugal Gamer can recommend it -- just a bit longer than Payne, perhaps 15 hours.

The Frugal Gamer played Jedi Knight II with the Luke cheat turned on throughout the entire game and cannot therefore give an accurate reading on how long the game would normally take to play. Indeed, for the Frugal Gamer, the word "cheap" has many meanings.

RtCW and MoH have yet to be experienced by any of us here at the Compound. Additionally, if you find that Marvel coming down hard on Freedom Force skins does not allow you to play the game with the characters you like, do not hesitate to throw a message our way. We have backups.
