From this month, Grand Theft Auto IV, Midnight Club Los Angeles: Complete Edition and BioShock will join the best selection of Xbox 360 games in the Classics range. A selection of titles, including Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: VEGAS 2 and Naruto: Rise of a Ninja will now be available with a Recommended Retail Price (RRP) of just £14.99.

Grand Theft Auto IV, the fastest-selling entertainment product of all time and the winner of countless awards, is set in Liberty City and telling the epic and satirical tale of newly arrived immigrant Niko Bellic, as he attempts to escape his dark and murky past in the Electronic Theatre Imageultimate land of opportunity.

BioShock is the "genetically enhanced" First-Person Adventure that lets you do things never before possible in the genre: turn everything into a weapon, biologically mod your body with plasmids, hack devices and systems, upgrade your weapons and craft new ammo variants, and experiment with different combat techniques.

In addition to these new entrants, Xbox 360 Classics already includes some of the most popular Xbox 360 games, now showcasing beautifully redesigned packaging, to add a touch of class to any gaming fan’s collection. Halo 3 sees Master Chief, the last known survivor of a secret military project, fight to save humanity and uncover a secret so incredible, it will change the galaxy forever. Gears of War tells deep and harrowing story of humankind's epic battle for survival against the Locust Horde, a nightmarish race of creatures that surface from the bowels of the planet.

Forza Motorsport 2 lets you own, customise, and race your favourite cars in this technologically advanced and realistic Driving Simulation and Project Gotham Racing 4 features super-powered cars, perfectly rendered real world locations and a realistic weather system that makesElectronic Theatre Image this the arcade racing game to play. Mass Effect is an immersive, story-driven experience coupled with awe-inspiring visuals, where you face a grave threat that may destroy all of civilization.

To mark the occasion of the introduction of the new Classics pricing, Ubisoft is introducing five amazing titles at the lower RRP of just £14.99 - Splinter Cell Double Agent, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Naruto: Rise of a Ninja.

“We are happy to bring some our best IPs to this Classics range, these titles offer some of the best gaming experiences, now made available for even more people to enjoy.” said John Parkes, EMEA Marketing Director at Ubisoft.

The Xbox 360 Classics range had previously been available as a half-price range in the UK, retailing with an RRP of £24.99, half the typical £49.99 RRP of Xbox 360 software releases. This reduction in price marks great new value in the existing Xbox 360 software catalogue, and will no doubt provide a number of stocking fillers this Christmas. Electronic Theatre will keep you updated with all the latest on the Xbox 360 Classics range.
