Mario Party 8 makes it to the worthy of a purchase list because it is a game that the entire family can enjoy. The game consists of mini games that you compete against other players for a chance at winning coins. The
player with the highest coins/stars at the end of the mini game wins. This game rocks because the re-play value is out the roof. Whenever you're bored, stuck inside on a rainy or snowy day, you could easily widdle hours away in some good wholesome fun with the entire family.
4. The Sims 2 Castaways
I'm a huge fan of the Sims so it is no big shock that this title would make it to my worthy of a purchase list. If you saw Tom Hanks in Castaway, then you pretty much can get the gist of this game. Basically that's what happens in The Sims 2 Castaway. Although the graphics are a bit lacking, and the sounds can get annoying, it is still fun gathering, collecting, and building things for your Sim Castaway.
5. Elebits
Oh snap, I nearly forgot about this awesomely bodacious game. This game is basically a first person shooter game with a cute, quirky colorful twist. You shoot elebits to collect electricity. Each board you must collect a certain amount of electricity in order to continue on to the next board. It may sound easy, but it does get tough. Not too tough though.
The game has light re-play value, but it is worth a buy in my opinion.
Games Worthy Of A Rent:
1. Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games
I rented this one last weekend. It was worth the rent, but definitely not a buy. This game is basically a bunch of Olympic themed games compiled into a bunch a mini games. Here you compete for the gold medal, silver, or bronze.
I liked the game, but to be honest, if I didn't have a human partner to play up against, it would of sucked. It is fun ONLY if you have REAL friends.
In this game expect to compete in running tournaments, pole jumping, swimming, and other Olympic games.
2. Rayman Raving Rabbids 1 and 2
I will admit that I was disappointed at how Rayman was born into mini games... I used to love the colorful adventures I once went on with Rayman in old playstation games. After playing the games though, I liked it. Both titles are just as fun as the last. The games consist of mini games compiled into one big game.
Neither game though is worth a buy in my opinion. There are just not enough mini games to be worthy of high re-play value. Rent wise though, the titles rock.
3. My Sims
The game would have high re-play value if it was a good game. Sadly though, things get so boring and repetitive so quickly, that you end up using the disc as a table coaster.
