Best of Platinum Hits? What is that? Well, it looks like Microsoft it trying to extend the shelf life of some excellent games even further by doing a “Best of Platinum Hits” where all the selected titles retail at $9.99. While most of these titles can already be found in the bargain bin at this price, that’s still a great deal! Just 2-3 years ago we were paying $50 a piece for these games. Now they’re $10!
People wonder why I’m a budget gamer…
