There's a decent line up coming around the corner. I think the PS3 still has them beat though heading into the holidays. I think MS is banking heavily on Kinect carrying through through Christmas.
That's just my two cents though.
ARGH! YE COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT SKIES OF ARCADIA, THE HOME OF THE MOST NOTORIOUS SKY PIRATE OF DEM ALL?
For this ye be surely walkin the plank! ARGH!
It goes...
Reach
CE
2
ODST
3
ODST takes place right after the first couple missions in 2.
Some sweet deals, but it's Halo: Reach for me and nothing else this week.

Thanks for the feedback.
None of those prices are made up. Each of them is connected to an actual auction, which I noted in the article. Here's a URL to one if you missed it:

Thanks for the feedback. I thought I addressed that issue in the first couple paragraphs, but maybe I didn't emphasize it enough. Yes, the values will change as supply and demand shifts.
The values suggested for each item are not permanent, but they are what people are actually wiling to pay for them at the moment and it's probably what you'd get for them if you have a pre order locked up and wanted to start selling off the excess items today.
Ever heard of the Uncharted 2 Fortune Hunter Edition?

Selling for around $650
Be interesting to see how the numbers change when we get closer to the holiday season.
I donated. First worthy cause I genuinely felt compelled to give to.
Good to know the Japanese are every bit as crazy as Americans.
Mafia II was over way too quick for my taste. Anyone know how long the DLC is?
Wow. That's really, really sad. :(
How fitting that such a hero worked on a game called Company of Heroes.
Edit: And the people who killed him were druggies and possibly under the influence when they crashed into him? I hope they rot in jail for the rest of their lives, the scum bags.
I honestly think publishers intentionally delay their titles to the end of the year not only to take advantage of the holiday rush, but also to try and edge out the competition for potential GOTY awards.
Just like the Academy Awards. The closer you release towards when awards go out, the fresher they will be in people's minds.
I read the same thing --think it was in an EGM interview WAAAAAAAAAAY back when Final Fantasy IX was being released.
NB2K11 is going to pwn this.
I could use a good arcade shooter -- a nice break from the routine of StarCraft II, StarCraft II and StarCraft II.
Power Rangers and Wrestling is still awesome.
Disney Channel would be too if they actually played Duck Tales once in a while.
Halo is more of an Aliens rip off than a Starship Troopers rip off.
And I don't mean "rip off" in a negative way. Uncharted 2 is awesome --but it's essentially a shameless Indiana Jones clone. Drake embodies Harrison Ford's charm and charisma, he's a roguish explorer and treasure hunter, fights old guys with English accents, etc. etc.
Isn't Uncharted 2 essentially an Indiana Jones rip off, just like Tomb Raider?
I'm so confused.
Oh man, I LOVED that game.
COVERING FIRE!!!!!! RUN RUN RUN!!!! COVERING FIIIIRE!!!!
Great memories.
