I recently visited a GameStop with just a few bucks to spend. I wanted to find some older games for cheap. I found Viewtiful Joe, used for $6.00. I played it at a friends house a long time ago, but never purchased it. The price was right so I decided to get it. Since I had a few dollars left, I decided to look around.

I found XIII, used for $4.00. I never played it, but I saw that it had multiplayer. Since my brother-in-law was going to be visiting that week, I thought it would be fun to play some multiplayer CTF or deathmatch against him (since he kicks my rump all over the place in Halo).

I started playing the single player missions to get a feel for the game. I quickly forgot I purchased Viewtiful Joe. This game has all the elements I enjoy in an FPS; sneaking around, sniper modes, missions, puzzles, and more. It is great! I have been playing about a chapter a night. You can take hostages, use items in the interactive environment to fight, use grapple hooks, pick locks, etc.

I read some reviews online to see what others thought. Most sites give it an average review. I think I am going to give it an above-average review. The gameplay is fun, multiplayer is cool (it has bots), and it was well worth the $4.00 I paid for it.

If you have a chance to pick up this game for cheap, DO IT! If you have already played this game, I would like to hear your thoughts.
