thought about it for a long time and today i went to but it and it was sold out at 2 game stops and 2 local places, the nerest place that might have it is like 30 mins away is it really worth the hastle?

Well it depends if you like games like this. It's a vehicle based game but the vehicles completely rely on you. My brother is thoroughly addicted to it and it's quite a good game.

It's... a tough call.

If you like building vehicles and engaging in all manner of weird challenges, then you're on the right track.

However, the core gameplay is a bit frustrating because the game is so open-ended in what it lets you do. A slight case of being given so much rope that you hang yourself I suppose.

The greatest joy about this game is the freedom to create though.

You can build mind-boggling vehicles (I'm fond of my USS Enterprise) and go tearing around all kinds of crazy landscapes in them. You can take them online too, although some options (detachor blocks and breaking vehicles block-by-block) get turned off.

If you like LEGO/K'NEX/MEGA BLOCKS or even just making sandcastles, this game is a hoot.

Interestingly, it looks like LEGO Universe will let you do a lot of the same stuff.

Yeah there are all kinds of cool vehicles you can make. As the guy said above, it's as close to a virtual box of LEGOs as you can get to. I've made a weird sphere like thing that has springs on it to just bounce around. Too bad it didn't work so well >_<

You did that too?

Ha!

I call mine Ker-Sproing.

It has springs on every side so it bounces madly regardless of which way it lands.
