I used to have a big game collection. Then I realized I could sell my games for small amounts of credit to help buy new games. Now I don't have a big game collection. Sigh.

News Blips:

Brad PittBrad Pitt may play John Marston in the Red Dead Redemption movie. Alright, here we go again. Could a movie based off of Rockstar's open-world western with Brad Pitt starring as the lead finally be the first great video game movie? The groundwork is certainly there; Red Dead Redemption had a fantastic story. But I'm sure they'll find a way to mess it up somehow. [1UP]

Best Buy wants your trade-ins. The retail giant has rolled out its new used-game program at over 600 locations. Your old games can be traded in for store credit, which -- unlike at GameStop -- can be used for all sorts of electronics and media. Unfortunately, it seems like Best Buy is giving less credit per title than GameStop does. [Kotaku]

LA Noire technically still coming out this year. But I wouldn't hold my breath. We haven't heard much about this upcoming Rockstar game for some time now, but a representative for the publisher recently told Joystiq, ""We have not updated anything since the last [Take-Two] investor's call," in regards to the release date. Not exactly assuring.

Xbox 360 voice communication to improve via update. This is great news. Now I'll be able to hear all those racial slurs with much more clarity. Hey-ooooooo!!!! [1UP]
