Advent Rising - any good for £7?

[RaMDOM]

Just browsing through the games on Steam and saw Advent Rising for $14.95 (about £7-8). I remember following this game through its dev thinking that it might be alright. However I know that it's release was a bit muted and that the reviews, while not scathing, were not exactly glowing.

However for £7?

Anyone played this? Is it worth a bash at budget price?

I think £7 is great for any game no matter how good it is, i always think "well, £7 is the 3 pints of lager so thats about 40 mins of entertainment. If i get a couple of hours fun out of it then it'll be worth it!"

I bought Devastation shortly after it was released for a whopping £3, it is one of the worst games ive ever played but it kept me entertained for a day so was good value for money

Interesting philosophy. Might give it a try.
