I bought MKWii for £29.99 3 days after launch, so how is that a price cut?

I got PS3 Fallout 3 in Game store (not online), non GOTY edition for £6.99, surely that counts as a bargain. I also picked up the Halo 3 ODST Beta myself but wont open it until I've finished Dragon Age, Oblivion and Fallout 3 - I'll let you know my thoughts around 2012 sometime then.
