About the game

3 Unlikely Heroes, 1 Ultimate Goal Kurt Hectic is back to save the universe. This time he is teamed with the genius Dr. Hawkins and the 6-legged gun-toting robotic dog, Max. Together they must out-sneak, out-blast and out-think their enemies as they attempt to reclaim earth from a vile alien menace.

The value story

Across all 64 discounts in the 14 years tracked, the median cut is 50 percent, about 9 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 9 weeks ago.

On value it sits in the top 49 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 81 percent of its genre. On the same math Squirrel with a Gun ($4.99, scores 69) and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart ($59.99, scores 51) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.

Yet, it resonated and spoke to me even before I could talk. This...

Fun sequel. The fact that it adds multiple playing conditions as you go through the story by using the features of the three different characters is a nice touch. Funny dialogue and cutscenes, the gameplay is really cool and fast-paced and in some scenes you really need to think or pay close attention in order to advance.

Murder-Death-Kill. Or Max-Doc-Kurt, as they refer to it. A blast from the past. And one of the best games by BioWare, apart from Mass Effect and KotOR. Sadly, there won't be MDK 3 or another quirky thing like this. P.S.: Jesper Kyd is a BEAST!
