Found a place today selling it for AU$24. I'm a massive LOST fan so it did appeal to me when looking through but I am unsure if it would be a good game. Anyone here play it and think it was good?

Haven't played it myself, but from what I hear the game is good enough to the point where huge fans of the show will love it. For instance, Batman Begins wasn't a great videogame but I loved the movie so much, that it made the game a lot more enjoyable.

I'm a big fan of Lost myself. I've been meaning to pick this up but haven't gone around to it. Considering its in the bargain bin, you can't really go wrong.

Yeah, you're right. It's in the bargain bin so might as well. Might pick it up on one of my lunch breaks during the week.

Speaking of Batman, not long now until Arkham Asylum comes out. That looks like it's going to be good.

It's good once you get into it. The first part is pretty poor but the rest of the game of is pretty cool :) I am a huge lost fan so it was nice to see all the little hidden things in there and stuff. I think for advice on playing it, think about season 2 and 3 and put the latest stuff out of your mind lol, it helps :) Overall it's a pretty decent game, it's not insanely difficult but it's hard enough to make it a challenge. I probably wouldn't pay full price for it but it's a good discount game for a fan of LOST.

The game got some pretty bad-to-average reviews, and it's apparently only 4-6 hours worth. The sort of thing that gives tie-ins a bad...wait, most tie-in games have a bad name already long before this one came out.

As a game, it was okay. I would only reccomend buying it if you are a major Lost fan because you get a lot of nice little moments out of it but I'm still not sure it's worth the full price.

At a discount or as a rent, it's certainly worth playing if you're a fan of the series.
