Welcome back to another great week of discounts with a guy who lives and breathes gaming. And not just any games, my friend – the best ones it’s actually worth it buying/playing/stashing it in a shameful pile to probably never touch again. Personally, I’m all for the surprisingly early discounts above 30% that I see Dragon Age Guardian AND Outlaws from Star Wars. So maybe start saving there.
In retro news, I commemorate the 19th anniversary Resident Evil 4port that blew PS2 owners’ minds apart like a .223 semi-automatic rifle to a melon. Even though I had already spent about 60 hours replaying it on my (better looking and sounding) GameCube version, I remember being instantly enchanted again when I booted it up on the ‘Station.’ The novel substantial icing on the cake? Separate waysabout a 2.5 hour mini adventure that put us on the impractical heels of Ada Wong packing into TMP. Indeed, RE4 was among the top three console games, alongside the best games of all time. Anyone who misses Redo these are the levels of madness gained.

Director of Death Stranding

Well, here’s the surprise no one expected. Also one of the strangest games I’ve played for as long as I can remember. Definitely do some investigating before you pull the trigger. A real love it or hate it proposition.

Red Dead 2

Combined with a good script and direction, the result is a play that is forthright rather than satirical and amusing, while still being able to evoke some incredibly well-deserved emotional moments, especially during the excellent crescendo and epilogue. 10/10.

Improved PS5 Pro deal
Need a affordable Pro presentation title?
Even without Pro Enhancement, the graphics of the PS3 remake of the 2020 PS3 classic already blew me away. That said, there is indeed a vaguely labeled “PS5 Pro” toggle in the display adjustment menu. It appears to be a 4K-like 60fps Fidelity mode, which I think looks noticeably better than the basic mode thanks to the added tessellation density and a novel contact shadow system that adds finer micro-details to the stonework (which are everywhere ). In fact, I’m going to play it all over again. As a busy reviewer who always contributes to The Next Thing, I need a real reason to look back; The PS5 Pro upgrade seems (and looks) like something worth considering.
