Xbox Games Bargain Bin

Hey everyone, I noticed a bin of XBox 360 games for $19.99 and was thinking about picking a few up. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if Rayman Raving Rabbids was worth twenty bucks or not. Has anyone here played it on the Xbox?

    Chances are that if a 360 game is 20 bucks, it is a piece of shit and not worth 5 dollars, let alone 20.

    Raving Rabbids was only fun because of the motion controls. I hear it was terrible on the 360.

    The system has been out for two years now, it is very possible that there are good games for $20.

    Viva Pinata for $20

    Raving Rabbids was a good game, but only because it was a near launch Wii game. Any other time in the Wii's lifespan and I would have looked it over without a second thought. Either get it for the Wii for cheap or leave it alone.

    Alright, I skipped over that one and got Viva Pinata which was also in the bin and honestly I am glad I did.

    Why is it so much fun? Heh.

    Thanks for the advice guys.

    There's now a few great games around and below the $20 price point for Xbox 360.

    As someone mentioned earlier, Viva Pinata is a freaking amazing little ranch sim. It fills a huge gap in the 360's total line-up. It's so rewarding, you'll never get enough chocolate coins.

    Though it was panned by many "professional" game reviewers, I personally loved Sonic the Hedgehog for 360. The down-time in the game can get tedious and some levels seem like they're designed just to piss you off, but for a $20 or less game, I can overlook its slight shortcomings.

    You're likely to find games like Call of Duty 2, Condemned: Criminal Origins...both great. Peter Jackson's King Kong was fun, but it's really short... Kameo might be in there, that was a sweet Zelda-like adventure game with a refreshingly original fantasy world.

    Just be sure to steer clear of stinkers like The Outfit and Perfect Dark Zero

    I sometimes see FEAR in there.
    Definately get that.
    DON'T buy Chromehounds, it's the worst way to spend $20 aside from burning. And atleast the burning part is fun. Hell, the only fun to be had with chromehounds is burning the disc.
