Dragon's Dogma - I've heard nothing but good about this game, both on this forum and others. It was the first thing I went looking for in the store. They had about 20 of them which surprised me.
Witcher 2 - Same as above. They only had 1 copy left. It's a good looking package!
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning - With my two "must have games" out of the way, I was able to really comb through what Best Buy had in stock and start to pick titles that were on my radar, but that I would normally wait for a big price drop. This was going to be a 20$ title for me to get eventually, but I had to spend this money today and nothing else they had in stock was really jumping out at me.
Lego Batman 2 - They had it set up on display and my kids played it for about 20 minutes while I shopped for games. I have to admit, it looked fantastic and that was my primary reason for picking it up for 40$ instead of waiting for the usual 20$ on Lego games. I got home and looked up some reviews and it appears I made a good choice here.
My local Best Buy didn't have a single other game in stock that I wanted, so I switched over to movies and got some cheap replacements for DVDs I already own. The Batman movies each have a coupon for cash off of tickets for the new Batman movie.
I continued looking at game reviews for the rest evening and I have to say that my pickups all seem to be fantastic choices. Every title has rock solid reviews and gamer opinions seem very good overall for each game. I would've normally gotten more "lesser" games that I have waited for price drops in this situation, but the length, quality, and moderately newer games made this a great buy. Also, I was really surprised how "lacking" the selection was in the store. They used to have plenty of every title in stock. Now it is very spotty and lesser known games do not seem to make an appearance.
