Everyone should really acknowledge the "up to"

Yes time to save some money on the games they are releasing

This may seem like an obvious question, but do you think these games will drop prices in retail stores as well as the Xbox Marketplace? This would greatly help people with slow internet (like me) and hey, the retailers wouldn't make much sales on the game anyway if they're on a huge sale on the Xbox Marketplace anyway.

1. It's used - this means that the disc could be badly scratched or damaged in some way.

2. With a digital copy there will be no damage caused. Yes, it does take longer to install but I think digital copies are a lot better.

At CeX in the UK they will take any disc as long as it isn't broken beyond repair.
