Alright, I just found out that the trade-in values for these games I have (for Blockbuster GameRush) and these are the games I want to trade in and their values:

Forza 2: $35
Madden 08: $35
GRAW: $10

But don't stop reading yet.

I'm doing this for the sake of pre-ordering Mass Effect Collector's Edition, which $70 (I just found out that it includes a bunch of gamer pics, dashboard themes, developer diary, art book, etc.), but I was wanting to make sure at the last second before I take this action. Should I do this or not? I'm broke right now so that's why I'm wanting to trade these games in, but I just wanted to make sure if it's a right decision from you guys or not. :)

I don't think you will need to pre-order ME. I mean it's going to be a sweet game, but it won't sell as much as a game like teh Halo 3.

Well, at most places, you only need to put a minimum of $5 or $10 down on a game to preorder it and guarentee your copy, and you can always change your mind and get your money back. So just put the $5 or $10 down on it now and make your decision when the game comes out.

I don't care about sales. All I care about is how good it's going to be, and it will be better than Halo 3. I can tell you that right now, no matter how much you deny me.

Yes it does, for proof look at the "Mass Effect golden" article here in the GS news section.

That and around my parts, stores did not come close to running into shortages for Halo 3, which was very nice.

you don't need to play it safe on this one, get it in the store and save yourself some $. If you really can't get the LE, then wait for it to be on the "used" shelf...

If you're REALLY into Mass Effect, do it - you'll love to have the extra material while the mage is still that fresh and you're playing. If it's just "another" game for you, don't.
