Quick opinion on what to buy with $20 Gift Card at TRU

[Bojay1997]

I realized today that I never spent my $20 TRU gift card that I got for buying RE5 on release day and I need to use it before April 30th, but I don't know what to get! There have been lots of new releases, but most are getting crap reviews or just look bad. So here are some that I'm considering:

MadWorld (Wii) - would get this pretty much because I don't use my Wii for anything anymore
Resistance: Retribution (PSP) - kinda like the above, looking for decent PSP games
HAWX - I like flying games, but I'm not an addict
Wanted (360) - looks interesting I guess
Wheelman (360) - love driving games! but how is this one?
Chronicles of Riddick - good reviews, leaning toward this game.
Ninja Blade (360) - don't know much about it at all, XPlay thought it was okay.

So anyway, what are your opinions? If you could have one of these (or something that I'm missing) for free, which would it be? ( I have other gift cards that will be making this game totally free!)

I think none of those are great choices. MadWorld will probably be $20 within a month or two given its poor sales. It is actually a pretty good game, but way too short.

Resistance is on sale at Best Buy for $30 this week, so you would be essentially wasting $10 of your gift card if you bought it at TRU. A good game, but not one that is a must have immediately.

HAWX is about to hit $20, as are Wanted and Wheelman given their very poor sales. Riddick is good if you don't have the Xbox version, but it's kinda overpriced for a re-release with a mediocre sequel tacked on which is not really that faithful to the original or very fun.

Ninja Blade is just plain bad.

I would look into some of the bigger releases from past months like Killzone 2 or Street Fighter IV if you don't already have those. The games above are too mediocre to justify a purchase at full price, gift cards or not.

I actually don't have either of those two (SF4 or KZ2). I never even thought about SF4 until I saw the employees at a gamestop going at it and the graphics are great! Seems like a lot of fun, so maybe I'll add it to the list.

THANKS!
