With the IT show in Suntec City coming soon, there will be many interesting games being sold there at a disocunt. However, if you are unlucky enough to be on a tight budget(>$40), but still want to buy a really good game, there ARE some games that are cheap ,'old' (released about 2 years ago) and still quite good.
Tom Clancy's EndWar
This game was released in 2008 , and had really boring story plot. The story plot basically involves a 'love' triangele between three countries, where the U.S. whacks Europe who whacks Russia who whacks U.S.. But when the game was released two years ago, it was considered a great game not because of its story, but because the game allows users to command their armies using only your voice via the headset. Plus the graphics for the game was rather good too. So if you would ignore the lousy storyline this game can still be quite fun and worthwhile to play and pay for.
Assasin's Creed
Released in 2007/8 ,this game was hailed by critics as an extremely good game,earning top marks from most of them. This game also spawned a franchise, with the third game, Assasin's Creed:Brotherhood releasedin 2010. However, despite having improved successors being released, this game is still quite fun to play. And the best advantage it has over its successors is that it is (most probably) cheaper (because of its age...). So if you have insufficent money to buy Assassin's Creed II and Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, maybe you can consider buying Assassin's Creed.
Second-hand CD-based games as well as pirated games are also great option for those with a tight budget xD.

Lets pretend I was talking about Xbox games only
