Guess it's time to grab Dishonored. What else should I get? I feel like I've dropped off the video game radar.

I'm going with Dishonored, Borderlands 2, and X-Com.

All good choices by most accounts. If you like sports games, NBA 2K13 is supposed to be really good. There is also FIFA 13 and Madden 13.

AC3 will be $47 at TRU on 11/2 & 11/3, per CAG. You can pre-order it at BB, get the $20 in RZ credits when you pick it up at full price, then PM the TRU price a week later. Makes it essentially $27. Great deal.

Me, I'll be waiting until it's below $20, probably in March.

Yes, X-Com is a good choice. So that and Dishonored. I'm not really sold on Borderlands since I do no multiplayer. Is Darksiders II any good? Or maybe The Witcher 2?

Borderlands doesn't necessitate any multiplayer. It's not even really a different experience.

...and it's awesome to have someone drop in on your game or drop in on someone else's game. No planning or coordinating is even needed.

Hmm. Well maybe I'll grab that for the PS3 then, since I don't have gold for my Xbox anymore.

I like Darksiders 2, though not as much as the original. On paper, it should be better -- it takes the original's Zelda/God of War blend and adds Prince of Persia-style platforming and Diablo-style loot drops, but somehow, it lacks the charm and cohesiveness of the first. Still a good game, though.

I haven't played Witcher 2, but it's already under $35 on Amazon, so if you're interested, I'd get it there if I were you.

The Witcher 2 was $10 at Best Buy about a month ago. After you are done with your sandwich, you can get it there.

Also the 100% trade-in bonus will be back as well. If you don't want three new games, I'd recommend getting some of the newest ones (Bond, Forza Horizons, MoH Warfighter) and -believe it or not- trading in the unwanted new games as used (after harvesting the online passes and such for eBay sale if you so desire). I'd bet you'll get over $40 back for each one you turn in and could easily get the new game you really want for under $40.

Is this offer in store only? I'd prefer to order online as the in store selection is hit or miss for me.

I would highly recomend you check out the value on their online trade in site before you buy a game to trade in though. If you just want to get a new game for $40 and you are a power up pro member, I would recomend buying 3 used games from the following list from Best buy today and trading them into GS today.

Alice Madness returns
borderlands
Civilization Revolution
Halo Reach
Marvel Ultimate Aliance 2
Portal 2
New Super Mario Bros.

I will turn a $43 order into $65 at gamestop today and the difference is only less than $30 because of local used stock at best buy.

Here are the tradein values. A basic membership will work for this. If you want an additional 10%, you will have to sign up for pro. ($14.99 a year)

If you can find a local xbox copy of MUA 2 and 2 copies of borderlands, that is a new release game+ for $30 out of pocket. I wouldn't try to trade 2 copies of borderlands to gamestop at the same time though.

Sweet. Already pre-ordered Creed and I'm using a b2g1 free coupon from Gamer club to get WWE 13 and Need for Speed that day.
