Just an FYI for Dead Island. The complete edition, that comes with all the DLC, doesn't actually cost much more then the normal version Gamefly is selling.

Or if I had the time. I like ME3 and SSX for those Gamestop prices but I already have 3 games I've got on backlog (scratch that, 3 really long games : Kingdoms of Amalur, Skyrim, and Fallout New Vegas) plus Dishonoured drops in a week.

I don't understand the point of bad company 2 ultimate edition at gamestop? I saw that there before and it says on the box the code expires in 2011 sometime. so you're paying extra for an expired code?

That only applies to the Xbox Live version that was not released in North America, only Europe and other markets.

I know this isn't relevant to this article, but the Deal of the Week is Activision, and the Sales and Specials includes Ilomilo. I JUST bought Ilomilo on xbox for 800 msp yesterday and Call of Duty Classic for 1200 MSP (because I never thought it would be on sale).

Ilomilo is 400 MSP today, and Call of Duty Classic is 600 MSP today.

Panda is very sad. :(

Do you have a link for this? Xbox.com still shows ilomilo at 800 MSP. I haven't looked up Call of Duty Classic yet.

Edit: Call of Duty Classic does show up as 600 MSP. Still 800 for ilomilo, however.
