Okay all are available for around £25 on amazon. I dont know which one to get. Im really not sure if I'll like LBP. It seems a bit boring. N tbh I've always sucked balls with level editors, so i dunno if i'll get the full use out of it.
Mirors edge looks freaking cool and innovative, but got mixed reviews, same with Far Cry 2.
Which do i go for?

LBP would probably be your best bet if you're interested in building levels...if not, it's a tossup between Mirror's Edge and FC2.

Yeah I've been on metacritic, n could definitely see myself thinking along the lines of this review for LBP
Personally I found the game to be extremely innovative. Sadly, it wasn't all that much fun.

Far Cry is longer than Mirror's Edge.

Unless you are one of those speedrun freaks who likes to spend hours shaving a second/fraction of a second of their time moving through a level I'd advise Far Cry 2.

Even better, save your money for the next round of big releases m8.
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

I got sick of far cry 2 pretty quickly. Extremely good game, but if your impatient, not so much. I dunno, I dont really like any games that aren't Multiplayer tho, so It could easily just be me.

the best of those would be LBP, but I'd save my money, none of them are particularly good.

These.

Save your money for H.A.W.X., Empire Total War or Killzone 2.

Mirror's Edge is a game you should rent. I beat it in like a day, about 5-6 hours of play time. It's really fun but I'm not one of those people to replay games. LBP, I feel the same way as you do. I don't really care too much about level editors and tbh, it doesn't look like much fun. If I want to play a platformer, I'll download ROMs for the thousands of old platformers out there. FC2 looks really cool, I haven't gotten to play it yet, but it's on my list of games to get from Gamefly soon.

Yeh I am going with the "you" option.

I dont understand buying singleplayer games then itching that they are boring cause you like MP. Im not directing this at you, just in general. People go into games like FC2 expecting linear twitch FPS when that is not what it was meant to be. The long drives were intended, not an accident.

FC2 was incredibly linear.

Home doesn't even work for me, can't sign in. Fuck that shit though, was never gonna seriously use it anyway, abit too weird for me. I'll keep my console for playing games and watching stuff and maybe some internets. Also bennis get Motorstorm: Pacifica if you can get it for cheap, I heard it's good. I might be getting that soon.
