Every now and then GameStop gets serious about its need to sell things, and this week (and this week only) they went a little nuts on the price cuts for their games to compliment the $50 off sale for Microsoft's Xbox 360 + Kinect.
<br />
<br /> Among the price-slashing for games is Assassin's Creed: Revelations ($29.99) and the new Complete Editions of LA Noire ($39.99) and classic GTA IV ($29.99) among others -- so if you are about to purchase your first 360 with a Kinect Controller you are one lucky gamer.
"Rockstar are one of the most respected developers out there. We all know how they push the benchmark of story telling in video games with each and every game of theirs. Be it Red Dead Redemption or the insanely popular Grand Theft Auto franchise, Rockstar Games have been in forefront of telling stories that sucks the player right in."
XMNR: Best Buy's gaming Deal of the Day for Friday pays homage to the last three releases from Rockstar Games. Get the Complete Edition of Grand Theft Auto IV or L.A. Noire for $20 along with the Game of the Year Edition of Red Dead Redemption.

might want a point of comparison between the look of the two games.
Or maybe the desire to see the long-suffering Mr. Bellic's jug-eared
visage looking out over a whole new story knows no bounds. We
definitely sympathize...
NowGamer: How far has Rockstar's GTA game engine come?
Rockstar has officially announced that Grand Theft Auto V will take place in Los Santos and surrounding areas, likening the location to a 're-imagined, present day Southern California'. Reading between the geographical lines of that last bit, we think we can now safely say that the whole of San Andreas won't feature. That means no San Fierro or Las Ventures.
Rockstar is throwing an open celebrity
fragfest today in celebration of Grand Theft Auto III's 10th
anniversary. Tonight from 10pm - 1am London time (5pm - 8pm
EST), studio reps and former GTA III 'fansite luminaries' will
be meeting up online for some GTA IV multiplayer action and inviting
fans to join them for the chance to win a GTA III Anniversary prize
pack.
The event is part of Rockstar's month-long ode to all things GTA III. Players who wish to join the online party are instructed to sign up for Rockstar Games Social Club account and track down the Rockstar hosts in the Multiplayer Events page...
