Filtered Thoughts
I remember when Deadly Creatures released, and reading how it was a very unique idea for a game. As the reviews show, it seems to be a pretty decent game, though the reported average hours "Per person" being less than 6 Hours is interesting.
Deadly Creatures is a Wii game I hope to play one day, as the atmosphere/setting seems very interesting to me, but knowing that the reported hours "Per person" are less than 6 hours I would probably look to rent it, or even look for it at a "bargain bin" price of $10 or less.
