2010 is already developing into a monumental year for video games

 

Although still in the early stages, 2010 is already developing into a monumental year for video games  . 'Heavy Rain,' 'Dante's Inferno,' 'God of War 3,' 'StarCraft 2,' 'BioShock 2' and the (long overdue) ' for Wii represent just a small portion of highly anticipated titles. New copies of those mega-hyped games will cost $50 to $60, though, so gamers may be limited in their total purchases. To help offset those costs, and to promote thrifty entertainment, we've compiled an assortment of inexpensive yet engrossing games from the PSN Store, the Xbox Live Arcade, and the Wii Shop. These cheapos may skimp on price (almost all are $10 and under), but the graphics, gameplay, and action definitely don't suffer. More importantly, they'll undoubtedly help avid players, regardless of their favorite console, continue their necessary virtual exploits while saving hard-earned cash for upcoming big-budget blockbusters.
