^ I just went to my gamestop today- it was 45$ >.<

Heh, when I went to get it Friday night the guys at my Gamestop didn't even know it was on sale. They said it was $44.99, I told them to scan it, they did and it came up $29.99 in their computer. 

This isn't the first time they were clueless. Forza 2 was their used deal of the week back in early February. Said it was $29.99, scanned it and it came up $19.99.

Print out the flyer and take it to them.

IN fact, while we are suggesting games that new Xbox 360 owners should play, far and away the best shooter released this year was Bioshock!!!

 The best shooter of 2007 was  Call of Duty 4. Over 40 review sites voted COD 4 as the best game on each of the XBox 360 and PS3 for 2007.



My gamestop newsletter said that Overlord is 20$(down from 40) and Dark messiah: elements
is 30$ (down from 60)

I am sure it is. However, I am trying to focus on budget-priced (below $40 USD) games.

The list of must-buy full price games still seems to be:

Bioshock
Mass Effect
Call of Duty 4
Lost Odyssey
Rock Band

That list is good except replace BioShock with Halo 3. Halo 3 has a decent campaign and probably the best online gameplay on the XBox 360. I did not like Bioshock at all it was way too easy and it had no online play.

BTW: GTA 4 will be a must buy game when that comes out in two weeks time.

Bioshock has a better single player... it's alot better.... I liked the demo better than the whole of halo 3's ....  For some reason the halo3 SP was very linear and forced.

Just Cause: 18$ used 30$ new

A good sandbox game

 

 

EDIT: could you make a sandbox (sub)genre section for cheap games?

here are some:  saints row, just cause, GUN, dead rising, naruto: rise of a ninja, the godfather(?), and oblivion.  I just looked on gamespot and there are alot of sandbox games coming in 2008 so I think sandbox style games should have their own section.

Where is Eternal Sonata on that list? It goes for $40 or less.

Also I think it about damn time GeOW drops it ridiculously high price.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

I have seen ES for £15 (less than 1/3 the original price) an amazon.co.uk

Great list, though I will be renting most of those titles rather than buying, Mass Effect, LO and AC 6 should keep me busy for most of the time without the extra games



Is Saints Row worth renting if I already have GTA IV?
