All these games were already $20. I guess Halo still sells too well to drop the price.

What qualifies a Platinum title? A game that is expected to sell well and doesn't? I know some of those sold extremely well, but I also know others didn't. People will see "Platinum" and assume this is a collection of the best games, like Playstation 2's Greatest Hits, so it will give the games a boost and hopefully sell as expected. I enjoy those games, but a few were unnecessary. I don't know, maybe it's just me. I feel the same for Greatest Hits, but this was kind of a disappointment...

Halo is easily the highest selling game for Xbox and it's not Platinumized, isn't this a high "honor"? Oh yeah, they just want to cash in on the success of Halo. And they will hope no one notices that the true Platinum title isn't included. Same goes for Grand Theft Auto 3...

Oh well, I'm not hating Xbox or Microsoft or anything, I just hate this marketing tactic, even though it will pay off.

Oh, and by the way, I know that I am a broken record w/ this, but you all know that 19.99 really means 14.99, right?

I guess "Platinum" sounds better than "Old games that didn't sell at $49.99".

There is not one game on that list I'm interested in. Honestly, every game that on that list is a game that i said, 'not interested' when it first came out.

Well, maybe PGR, but APEX is only a couple of weeks away.
