Microsoft releases cheap Xbox games

Volish spinners are calling the cut price games The Best of Platinum Hits program and included amongst them are classics such as Counter-Strike, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, MechAssault, Project Gotham Racing 2, Soul Calibur II, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell and its sequel, Pandora Tomorrow, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4, Underground, Enter the Matrix, Fuzion Frenzy, Shrek 2, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six 3, and True Crime: Streets of LA.

It is the first time that consoles have had a range of discounted games below $19.99 and the question is what is the Vole up too?
