Welcome to another week of savings. As usual, I’ve scoured every store I can trust to find only games worth playing, at the prices they probably should have been in the first place. I’ve also found time to relist these Forza Horizon 4 delist deal. Given the weird way Microsoft rolls back things, it seems like Ultimate Edition really is the way to go.
In retro news, I’m celebrating my 29th birthday Sega Saturncommercial failure that still holds a special place in the subconscious. What made it tick? The sophisticated hardware design that made it arduous to utilize its 3D capabilities, restricted third-party support, and suits severely underestimated the emerging Sony PlayStation. Whatever the case, we Saturn tragedies ate well for a while, thanks to (mostly) high-quality Sega Model 2 arcade ports and exclusives like Night, The Guardians Heroes, Burning Rangersand Panzer Dragoon series.

Hades

Hades is a one-of-a-kind rogue-lite that sets the standard for creatively combining very different genres and using their strengths to complement each other in unexpected ways. A true must-play, now half off (so now there are no excuses).

Baldur’s Gate 3

They don’t often take this for granted. They don’t have to. BG3 is the perfect blend of crunchy, tactical, old-school RPG combat, an epic and well-written story with sophisticated characters and lots of meaningful choices, and a high level of polish and presentation.

Captures all the excitement and wonder of the wizarding world with unforgettable modern characters, challenging and nuanced combat, and a wonderfully presented vision of the students of Hogwarts. 9/10, amazing.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth

It’s strange that an RPG of this caliber is already discounted. I loved it. Rebirth impressively builds on what Remake started as a best-in-class action RPG full of stimulating challenges and depth. 9/10, amazing.
