Redbox, Starts offering Video Games

Redbox will start to offer video game rentals at $2 for one night - alongside their $1 DVDs and $1.50 Blu-Rays. This is a really good idea and I wish I had thought of doing it myself... maybe I still should? I would love to have some sort of kiosk to sell video games through - if anyone one wants to work with me, I have great ideas for it.

Anyway, it's awesome that they're offering this. Some video game rentals at places like stores these days are just far too expensive. They will start to offer rentals in June.

Portal, Excluding Steam sales - sells 4,000,000 copies

This is what the room below looks like after many years
Portal, the game that was originally released in the Orange Box in 2007, has sold over four million copies at retail alone; this means, not including the high amounts of sales on the digital distribution program, Steam. There are probably millions more copies that were sold on Steam that were sold at retail.

Portal 2 was just released yesterday, and there's no doubt that the sales numbers on it are as high, if not higher than Portal. Portal 2 is an awesome game; I couldn't stop playing it when I played it yesterday. I went ahead and reviewed the first of the two campaigns included with Portal 2 - you can read it HERE.



Beginning of Portal 2 - Yet many years before actual gameplay
I hope that Portal gets another installment in the series within the next few years; Portal 2 was worth every bit of hype surrounding its release, unlike many other games released in the past few years. Dragon Age II was far lower quality than the hype surrounding it led everyone to believe; DA2 wasn't the worst game ever, but it definitely will not be in a group of games that people will remember, forever.
