They should hire a guy full-time to come up with wittier clues.

@Acosta02

And Joystiq should hire someone to decipher them. It's too early for me to be figuring stuff out for myself!

I guess 2PM PDT is FFXIII?

6AM - World of Warcraft Battle Chest
8AM - Dragon Age 2
10AM - Killzone 3
12PM - Bulletstorm
2PM - Final Fantasy XIII
4PM - Sims Medieval
6PM - - Kingdom Kearts: Birth By Sleep
8PM - Get ready to take to the field - MLB 2K11

@Daxter1985

8AM might actualy be Dragon Age:Origins ultimate edition

@Daxter1985

nvm looks like my first guess was right

Dragon Age 2 Deal Price: $39.95

A lot better than some of their other video game gold boxes, but nothing that catches my eye. I may pick up SC2 though...

Just scored a 60$ killzone 3 helghast edition!! :)

This reminds me. Isn't Heart of the Swarm supposed to come out this year? According to the schedule Blizzard gave to expansion releases.

I know, I know. It will be delayed, but it makes me wonder how we've heard no news yet.

@WeRequireMOARMinerals It was always planned for at least 18 months after release.

Also, Blizzard has never delayed a game. They don't set release dates until they know they will hit them.

$40/SC2... Not low enough. I don't have lots of friends to play this with so multiplayer is out. $40 is too much for a weekend of playing the single player then tossing it aside forever.

Starcraft 2 for $40.00 is such a good deal!!! It's like an expansion for a never ending upgraded game!!!
