      Pity you didn’t get on it earlier, KMart had it for $30 a few months back… and yes, you SHOULD get it.

      Better off renting it dude. I got it for my birthday and I haven’t finished it, but I will admit that the 3 chapters I played were fantastic. But, you’ll hear from everywhere that its extremely short and I doubt you’ll get into the time-trials enough for it to be replayable. Just borrow it off your mates or rent it. Thats all you need :/

    “Resistance 2 (PS3) $49.97″

    Maybe I should get around to fixing my PS3 after all… that price hits the spot!

    It’s a bit silly calling those Dead Space and Mirrors Edge prices half price, they’ve been 60 bucks since… before christmas last year?

      They’re half off the RRP, even though as you say most retailers have been selling them for considerably less for some time.

        I happened to stop by an EB yesterday, and Resistance 2 was 109.95-> $54.95 (according to my receipt).

        I picked up that, Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts $10, Crackdown $25, and Bully $50.

    hmmm i have been waiting for the price of LPB to come down as i didn’t think it was worth full price imo but i think this will make it easier for me to buy now.

    I’m looking forward to buy LBP, and maybe Resi 2, but since I can’t play ‘gore-y’ online games, I might not.

    Definately get LBP if you’re considering it guys, spent about 2 weeks completing it fully (not trophies) and enjoyed every bit of it. Great social game.

    Thanks to Charly too, an awesome job on the list, would probably get SR2, Mirrors Edge or the like.

    Don’t know if anyone is going to see this. It’s a day or too old post. But went into Kmart today & they had, not the largest selection, but around 7 games left, with multiple copies on a Clearance sale. Around $30-$70.

    Including, Lord of the Rings COnquest, Madagascar 2, some Tennis game among others. Probably getting ready for the EOFY.
