Check out Gamespot and IGN for game reviews. Nothing worse than getting stuck with a bad game on christmas morning. You play it for 30 minutes and then realize how bad it is...never wanting to play it again. Area 51 is okay. Gamespot gave it 7.2 out of 10. So it is above average and fairly entertaining. I usually try to get games at least 8.0 and up. But for the price you're paying, it is a pretty good deal. Also gamespot and ign have links to basically all the available reviews online (together in one place); so you can get better overall idea of what everyone thinks of the game. Good luck!
