Hopefully you’re still holidaying and if you are, you’ll need games. Cheap ones. Along with the headliner deals that describe themselves, I’d like to highlight a pretty great preorder price for FF7 Rebirth on PC. I for one can’t wait to see how brilliant it can look (and run) on some beefy hardware. That being said, let’s move along and save a bunch more Gil on today’s bargains below!
In retro news, I’m ensuring we all Don’t Starve by baking a 10th birthday cake for said indie great. When I was famished for things to play on my newly acquired launch PS4, I was surprised when this out-of-nowhere roguelike nourished me for dozens of hours. Being a masochist, there was so much to love about this—the complete lack of farming direction, the Burtonesque atmosphere of a storybook gone bad, and that increasingly bunghole-puckering stress of keeping shadow beasts and stomach grumbles at bay. Holds up quite well today, and you really ought to play this with a mate in the Don’t Starve Together co-op variant.

Switch OLED + SMB Wonder

This looks and plays like the true next step for 2D Mario platformers. Wonder effects change each stage in both surprising and delightful ways, the Flower Kingdom makes for a vibrant and refreshing change of pace, and Elephant Mario steals the show. 9/10.

Lords of the Fallen

Lords of the Fallen is an awesome soulslike with a fantastic dual-realities premise. It’s not perfect, but I’d armour up for it at this price in a second. 8/10, Great.
