Should I get an Xbox 360 next week, or play WoW and get a 360 this Xmas?

Altogether that's $80 for all three with Oblivion GOTY edition and about $55 for all thee with Oblivion regular edition. I hope this helps. Note that if you actively bid on these items you'll probably walk off with a much better deal, but these I'm showing you are sure things.

 

Thanks very much! Is GotY really worth it? I was just going to get vannila at the store with a gift card since it is 1/2 the price... unless GotY has alot of content. Also, is viva pinata trouble in paradise a sequal, or basically a GotY edition of Viva Pinata? I'm not going to buy the same game twice :O

Thanks for the link to blue dragon. How many hours long is it? I know LO is about 70 hours, but its still a bit too pricey.

I haven't played Oblivion so I can't tell you whether it's worth it. I do know the expansions put on an additional 40-60 hours of possible gameplay, so I'm sure it's a plus. Overall I would say stick with the original, since there's supposedly hundreds of hours of sidequests. If you really feel the need for more, just buy the rest in the future. Then again, I did just give you a link to a GOTY that's only $15 more than you're about to pay in retail for a new Oblivion regular edition. The choice is yours good sir. Flip a coin.

Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise is a sequel, and is going to have a lot of enhancements to the VP formula like co-op.

I've never played Blue Dragon but I'm betting it's your typical 60-120 hour RPG, depending on how dedicated to grinding you are.
