If you look at this story's picture, you see that box isn't full. Its not because the original image was small, it was big enough but thats the scary thing. The actual screenshot from Gamespot has the additional useless black box!
God, I love Alex Navarro's reviews and the ones with extremly low scores are classics (To make fun of, that is).

1.1 - I recommend to you the "Deal or No Deal" Gambling machine.

Exciting thrills await! Must be 21 or older to play. 18 years of age in select areas. Penny, and quarter slots available in all casinos.

---------------
LoL, at least you have more of chance getting your money back from the the gambling machine. How sad.

You just pick a random briefcase and then another random pick and then another until you finally win or lose fake/virtual money and thats it. THE problem is that the next time you bring up the game and play it, you find there is no true randomizer and only a limited and short pattern so you can memorize the whole thing in less than an hour and be an instant winner! (The game was awarded the "CakeWalk / Too-easy" medal)

Ya lol, what a joke. I could probably code this game in 15min. Maybe another 45min to add some graphics.

I pray to God that nobody is stupid enough to actually buy this game.

Although by the sounds of the amount of effort that went into it, they'd only need to sell 1 or 2 to make a profit.

lmao

"A $30 game about winning fake money by picking random numbers is awful to begin with, but a completely broken version of said game is another story altogether. "

I wonder where that 0.5 came from since from the looks of game and review, this game deserved -1 or something. Games like Hour Of Victory at least have levels and enemies and bad graphics for 360 but this one, looks terrible compared to DS standards and is without real randomising is just a single match/show game that's out of steam in less than 10 minutes!

If I worked at a game store I would be ashamed to have this crap on the shelves. I would be sure to warn customers.
