enslaved

Zavvi’s basically made it impossible for you to not have Enslaved now: the amazing Ninja Theory action title, which did critically well, but unfortunately lacked in sales, is at £7.85 for 360 and PS3. Crackdown 2′s going cheap for the 360 massive as well at £5.85. Either way, whatever you do, you owe yourself to get Enslaved. Now.

Thanks, Blerk.
