I just finished Castlevania over the weekend and it's definitely worth the $10. Great game and the ending totally blew me away. Can't wait for the sequel.

I couldn't stand it. It was too hard and frustrating for me.

I know right, it's seriously trolling at this point to put only the 360 version of Castlevania on sale yet again.

Hasn't it kind of been typical this entire console generation for 360 games to be cheaper faster and have more sales than PS3 versions? I think they must produce less PS3 copies of games. That's he only explanation I can think of. I've been waiting for Valkryia Chronicles to be $10 and it hasn't happened yet. If it were on the 360 it would probably be below 10 on sale.

Agreed. Got it long ago for $30. Great game indeed.

These $10 games are a no brainer. Castlevania is worth $10 too.

That may be true, but I think its due to cost of blu ray disc which is why it doesnt drop as fast compare to 360.

Thanks for the heads up, grabbed Star Ocean for a Christmas present.

When I see an HDMI cable for $2.50 it makes me laugh it up at those who pay $20 and up.

Not really.

27.27 fps on PS3; 26.85 fps on 360. Functionally identical.

I think it's supply and demand. Retailers don't care what the game is on.

I recall when I bought my PS3 on release d a BB rep recommended a official Sony HDMI for best 'clarity' for only $50. Used to be funny back in 2006, but I figured even the average consumer would know the going rate for HDMI's nowadays.

I'd be all over the PS3 version. Too bad :(

BTW, the LE version of Castlevania is at $34 if anyone is interested: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...9SIA0ZG0FU7955

I've played both versions. Bought the 360 first and the effects were noticeable. PS3 version is much better when you actually play it. CAG's honor.

Is star ocean worth $16?

I think...hmm, five times now I've ordered a set of five HDMI cables from Newegg when they offer a 50% off coupon code for up to five of them, then I trade them in to Gamestop (though I space them out) for $4.40 each.

It's nice to consistently get ~$7.25 -> $22 GS credit.

I played through Castlevania LOS on the 360 and thoroughly enjoyed it. I didn't notice any horrible slowdowns. I would have preferred it on the ps3 but I couldn't find a copy.

It's a very good game but I'm more of a traditionalist with the story...I'm not too keen on how they reboot the characters or whip.

Another game that went under the radar in the same genre that I liked a lot was Dante's Inferno.

Why would they accept HDMI cables for trade in?
