Really, this is a brilliant, brilliant game.

Yes, it only lasts around 10 to 15 hours, but the gameplay makes up for that tenfold. It's one of the best games I've played in ages and up there with the likes of Zelda as an astounding adventure title.

Plus, it's only £20.

Really, if it doesn't get a sequel, I'm blaming you lot.

DON'T get BG&E.

To be honest, the game is fantastic. But I did a marathon 10 hours this weekend to finish it as soon as I could - got to one of the final scenes, and one of the side-characters disappeared from the game. Literally, just vanished. He's greyed out of the menu and I can't leave the current area without him.

To have good titles spoiled by massive glitches like this is a crime, I will probably never play it again.

Yes. Its a good setup as some games are really quite sh*t when you get them home.

Seeing as I bought ir from GAME, does that mean with the 10 day no quibble return policy thing, I can return it and get my £37.99 back without being told to sod off?

The good thing with EA games though is that you always get great trade prices on them. I can buy Everything or Nothing, complete it and then sell it on for £25 so I only lose £5-6 providing I don't keep hold of it for too long. Its supposedly very very short if you whisk through it without caring about your score or about what you unlock however for those who enjoy getting platinum medals etc it supposedly lasts about 15-17 hours which is enough for me with a game of this nature.

Everything Or Nothing is pretty decent, not that it'll be one of the shooters of the generation, but it's a solid tps (third person shooter I suppose it should be called)

Only problem with it is it's length... I managed to complete it in just over a day. Still, it does have quite a bit of replay value.

As for POP, completed it today with a weeks worth of on/off playing. Fantastic game, and I rarely ever had a problem with the camera.

£20? Sounds decent.

Dunno. As a shooter, no. But in terms of originality and storyline I reckon it could be considered.

XIII isn't one of the best of this generation.

TimeSplitters 2 is easily one of the best, though I'd disagree about XIII.

Hardly. Whatever you think of Halo its damn near impossible to argue that Call of Duty isn't the finest FPS game since Half Life.
