As I indicated, it has taken a while for me to play this game. I had planned to do so 5 months ago and had set the wheels into motion soon after it appeared in stores. Y'see, it was my mate Adam's birthday in March. I'd bought him a copy of the game in question, knowing full well Adam's a busy guy who runs his own design business. He's a workaholic and doesn't find much time to turn his 360 on, save for our fortnightly Thursday night games bash. So I'd fully expected him to sling it my way instead of watching it collect dust. I was quite eager to jump into the ludicrous hip-hop-stop-n-pop antics of Master Cent, and the podcasts I'd been listening to at the time only made me want to check it out more.
So, I got hold of Adam's copy on the weekend, although not from Adam himself. No, I saw it sitting at another mate's place, and found out he'd borrowed it off Adam not long after I'd handed it over as a birthday present. Yep, turns out I was right. Adam liked the game, but had too much on his plate and enthusiastically handed it to a friend to enjoy... that friend just turned out not to be me. Ah, well. It was a sound enough theory, I guess.
Ever bought a game as a present for someone with a view to borrowing it later down the track?

To be honest, the game is kind of lame unless you're on the top difficulty and doing co-op. That's how I had the most fun, anyway. And yes, pretty much anything I buy for someone else has a resale value for myself if they're not too interested.
