    What's the best two games to get of this selection?

    I have a $30 Kohl's gift card that expires today and apparently they sell video games there, but not very many. So from this small selection they have them all for $19.99, I figure I'll probably get one or two of them. I don't own any of them. Here's the link:

    EDIT: Link won't work since asterisks shows up for ". j s" but I have no idea why.

    Which would you say? I'm leaning maybe toward one of the LEGO games and maybe an FPS game, but I already devote my online FPS time to Modern Warfare 2 and I don't like BC's control scheme (or lack of options at least) and it only runs in 30 FPS (lol strange those initials mean two different things).

    I only played the demo for Reflex but was very let down, though I would love a game like that in my collection. Would it (or any of these) be worth the pickup, or should I invest in $30 worth of Kohl's cash with other stuff?

        I'll probably get Soul Calibur IV, though I missed out on getting it when it was $10 at Best Buy. Actually I think I sold my copy to somebody else. Oh well, at least this is "free" in a sense.

          Pure Futbol is fun if you like arcade 5 on 5 soccer. I really like the gameplay mechanics and it has control schemes for both Fifa and PES fans as well.

          Brutal Legend is great, but I definitely had a tough time with some of the RTS elements. The gameplay, plot and characters are very well done.

          Let us know what you decided.

            Brutal Legend and SC IV. Timeshift also decent (what I played of it anyway). Reflex was terrible.

              Brothers in Arms Hell's Highway
              Battlefield Bad Company

              Those 2 hands down are the best on that list. I must say I have always been a fan of the Brothers in Arms series, that series is way better then the COD series by a long shot. Your teammates AI are actually useful and can hold their own. Plus I love the huge battlefields and large scale battles in that game. Also I love the fact you control 2 and sometimes 3 additional fireteams and you can have them flank the enemy.

              Sound effects are top notch too.

                Re: What's the best two games to get of this selection?

                Thanks all, but I think just for the sake of game variation I'll just go with Soul Calibur IV. I would add one of the LEGO games to the mix but I'm not sure which one I would do specifically, and I think I have way too many racing/shooter games to go into that genre.

                I do appreciate the recommendations though, I will look into these in the future. I've played Brothers In Arms and I enjoyed it, but I think I'll refrain this time.

                  Oh, if you want a lego game, I recommend Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga. It's really 2 games in 1 and a bunch of fun.

                  I played them separately and I wish I had known they were coming out with that.

                    That was actually the one I wanted, but that was an online-only option so I decided against it.

                      I'm not a big fighting game fan. SC4 has been my favorite and a keeper.

                        Brutal Legend and Force Unleashed.

                        I loved the story in Force Unleashed, and it could have been a movie it was so good IMO.
