The Skinny: Pick your favorite zoo animal and ride its fur all the way to the Oval Office. Just like in real life!
The Good: The game is genuinely fun to play for the first couple of hours. The different minigames, which range from slinging dirty clams at your opponents to hacking voting machines, give you enough options to keep you on your toes. And you can also pick the game up at a bargain price of $39.99.
The Bad: If you don't have friends to play withwe're sure "Hey, wanna play a game about politics?" won't have people climbing over each other to join youthe game will get old quickly. By the time you reach the end, you'll have played each game mode at least nine or 10 times, which leads us to believe the game is a bit on the shallow side.
Clam No. 9: The imagination of the game's developers stop short of including governors' one-night stands with high-priced hookers.
Buy, Rent, or Disembowel? Rent. The 360's achievements are pretty easy to nab; and you'll be entertained for a couple of hours.
