Many users asked us to make a list of games that have increased or decreased in price recently. Every month we write an article with a list of some of the games with the biggest increase and decrease in price. We are calling the series "Winners & Losers".
The article format will probably morph somewhat over time, but initially there will be pictures showing the charts for big movers and text links for a few additional titles. For those interested, you can read the methodology for deciding what makes the list at the very bottom of the article.

Methodology
The list is made up of the games with the biggest change in price compared its average price in the last two years. We use the standard deviation for the prices to eliminate games that naturally have volatile prices.For example, a game has an average price of $10 and a standard deviation in this price of $1. 96% of the time prices will be within $8 and $12. If during the next three months the price jumps to $14, then $15, and $16 after that we can be very confident the price increase is statistically significant.
