If I can only get 1 or 2 should I get Dead Rising 2 off the record $10, Rayman Origins $10, or Bulletstorm $5?

Definitely get Rayman Origins. I didn't see Bullet Storm was $5; I might pick that one up along with Rhythm Heaven ($5) and Tetris Axis ($10).

You owe it to the gaming industry to get the gem that is Rayman Origins.

Rayman Origins is worth the purchase. Every penny. You won't regret it.

And on that note, I may just pick up Dungeon Siege III and Child Of Eden, provided IF they are both brand-new and not used.

Hope this hits Canada. I would pick up Dead Space 2 and Rayman Origins for sure. Skate 3 would be a good addition too.

You should buy 2 copies of Rayman Origins to further support the best 2D platformer of this gen.

Acording to the site the sale "unofficially" starts August 12th. Unofficially because Best Buy never advertises this sale, they just quietly reduce their prices and rely on word of mouth to get the games to sell.

To those that recommend Rayman Origins, being as unbiased as possible, how good is the co-op in that game? Is it actually fun or just frustrating? I've often found tethered co-op - especially in platformers, though not so much in side-scrolling beat 'em ups - more maddening than enjoyable. And, quite frankly, I'm not sure I'd play the game solo.

The Co-Op is really fun. It's probably a better game when you play it with a friend; laughing as one dies and coordinating jumps and making plans on who goes where and who grabs what. I played through half the game with my friend, and he still comes over so we can collect all the lums in levels. The game is really hard to get all the trophies without someone helping you on some parts. It's much better co-op than NSMBW or DKCR. The single player is amazing by itself though and co-op is not needed to beat the game if you do decide to go it alone. There are no lives in this game and if one of your partners die you can revive them by jump on their inflated balloon body.

So far I've only played the game with my niece and I promised her I wouldn't play it when she's not around. It's the best side-scrolling co-op I've ever played.
