The Steam sale and other bargains thread

[wullie]

http://www.steamidlemaster.com/

This is the one that was recommended, although there seems to be a few doing the same thing.

[Disco]

Cheers man, we'll see how it gets on.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I've got a few things worth over 50p from TF2 and one that is going for about £1.

Making that mad money.

[wullie]

I just put some stuff up and made 12p within 10 seconds of listing them, making paper at that ratio comes out at almost £400000 per year.

Based on that financial projection, I've bought Worms Armageddon in the sale for £2

[Ian]

So do I need to have things currently in my inventory for that thing to do stuff, or....?

Anyway, I bought Signal from Tolva (I'm choosing to blame Disco for that, not my own lack of self-control) to finish of my sale purchases and decided to leave Watch Dogs this time.

[Disco]

As far as I can tell it just mines the games in your library for trading cards, presumably by tricking Steam into thinking you're playing them.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Yeah, I've been running it for the last 2 hours or so.

Got 31 badges thus far.

[Disco]

This is witchcraft, it's dug several cards out of Empire Total War, a game which Steam reckons I have over 800 hours logged in.

[Disco]

While we're on the subject, what kind of price do you guys list things for? I tend to look at the little graph and go for whatever they've been selling for, I wonder if you just whacked it up a few pence if they'd still sell.

[wullie]

I just go with the price it says, including Steam's 2p cut. Everything tends to go pretty quick that way, although I'm still bemused as to who is buying these things and why.

[phonics]

If you get all of them you can then combine them to make it's 'final form' and sell it for a bit more. Plus, nutters/perfectionists.

[Ian]

At risk of being the world's most boring man is there a potential risk in this? Free money, even in tiny increments, still isn't really a thing.

[Disco]

I can't see how, it simply runs the game for long enough to trigger the drops.

I wonder if this is the trading card exploit that Jim Sterling is always going on about. Did people upload a string of assest flips with cards in them, mine the cards out and somehow profit happened? I never quite worked that one out.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Got this as well:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/steam-inventory-helper/cmeakgjggjdlcpncigglobpjbkabhmjl

Just stuck up just over 100 items in a matter of minutes.

£8.09 after Steam takes their cut is what I'm on for.

[Disco]

I'm at the heady heights of nearly £3 with another 40 odd things still listed. It's clearly not worth the hassle but I need to finish now.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

The Inventory helper is amazing though.

[Disco]

I sell all the things in my inventory, I'm not sure what else it would help me with.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

It does it automatically.

You click 'ok' once (well once per 25 items) and it lists them up for market value.

Took me less than 5 minutes to list over 100 items.

[wullie]

Fire Pro World was released on Early Access today, the card collecting chumps paid for a third of my copy. Thanks, strangers!

http://i.imgur.com/hLv9TjB.png

[phonics]

Valve just banned 40,000 accounts yesterday just FYI. Most were VAC bans but I'm not taking my chances.

[Disco]

Get a grip.

[phonics]

I've spent too much money on that account to lose it over 5 quid.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Woman.

[Mike]

Any good?

[wullie]

I've only run it on a laptop at work to fart around with settings so I haven't played yet, but people who have seem to be raving over it so far.

[Ian]

Some good stuff on GMG:
https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2017/08/04/best-pc-gaming-deals-of-the-week-43/

Wolfenstein for £3 is good value.

[Ian]

Did anybody play the Telltale Batman game? Kinda tempted now it's down to a fiver.

[Pleb]

I've played the first four episodes of it on the PS4 but never got around to finishing it off.

It's pretty good so far and I'm tempted to get season two after I finish episode 5.

[Ian]

Really liked the first episode. Story's solid and I like the balance of different stuff to do. I've enjoyed myself with a lot of the Telltale stuff but I feel more involved in this one, even if it's just a slightly more complicated illusion of choice.

[Pleb]

Saints Row 4 at £2.99 with pretty much all of the DLCs.

Should I bite?

[phonics]

It's no Saints Row 3 but it's still pretty compelling.

[Shindig]

Free weekend for that. I might install it just to see how it runs.

[Ian]

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2017/09/19/gog-big-deal-sale/

The lovely GOG have a big sale on.

Considering The Witness, Her Story, Tacoma.

[Baz]

The Witness is repetitive garb. I bought it on PS4 at launch and started thinking omg such a creative puzzler I love it, then got bored but persevered, then got stuck but googled it so I could carry on playing and resisted the temptation to cheat more, then decided it was crap and cheated for a bit, before deciding I couldn't even be arsed doing that and sacked it off in about the third zone.

Honestly it's dogshit.

If you love line puzzles, I think you'd still get bored.

[Disco]

FTL for pennies is never the wrong choice.

[wullie]

I like the idea of Project Highrise despite the undisputed fact that I'm always shit at construction and planning games, yet it rarely puts me off them.

[Patje]

Crypt of the Necrodancer is such a lovely game. Though like FTL, I prefer it on iPad.

[Baz]

The Witness is out on iOS now. £9.99 :sick:

[Ian]

Halloween sales on Steam and GOG.

Steam sale looks like the last one. Deals are on for the duration rather than flash sales, etc.

[Ian]

Humble sale, featuring a whole shitload of games: https://www.humblebundle.com/store?partner=rockpapershotgun

[Ian]

Steam Autumn sale and basically everything on my fucking wishlist is on it.

Dishonored 2's DLC already at 50%, Shadow Tactics at £17.49, which is the cheapest I've seen, Heat Signature, Vermintide (we need The Third Hard back), Banner Saga 2, Assassin's Creed Rogue, Tacoma, Total Warhammer (1) and Far Cry Primal. There is so much of it.

[Disco]

I can highly recommend Twathammer and Heat Signature.

[Shindig]

Dead Rising on the cheap might be grabbed.

[Pleb]

Hollow Knight £7.25

[Baz]

Sanctum 2 is free on Humble Bundle: https://www.humblebundle.com/store/sanctum-2

[Pleb]

Dead by Daylight is £7.49 on Steam Ian

Something for The Third Hard to consider :chief:

[Ian]

Could be a laugh, how many do you need for it?

I bought Hexcells for 60p and it's a couple of hours of puzzley goodness.

I think I'm going to get Dishonored 2: Death of the Outsider and Assassin's Creed Rogue.

[Pleb]

Five.

Four survivors in third person mode with one being the killer in first person mode.

[Ian]

Bought Death of the Outsider and Assassin's Creed: Rogue.

Think I'll pick up those other two Hexcells games too.

[Shindig]

I grabbed the Nioh season pass which I'll work through next week.

[Ian]

Steam sale is upon us.

I'm staring down the barrel of an incredibly skint January and have enough games to be getting on with so I'm going to try really hard to not buy anything.

[Ian]

I didn't even realise linking Amazon Prime to Twitch was a thing but this sounds fucking brilliant.

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2018/03/16/twitch-prime-now-includes-a-monthly-bundle-of-games/

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Yeah, they offer loads of extras.

You can claim stuff with a trial too. I'd assume the games only work when you have an active Prime subscription though.

[Ian]

I'm just linking my Twitch account with my dad's Amazon account.

[Baz]

Upto £26 in my wallet from selling cards now. If anyone wants a game off steam and doesn’t mind a few hours delay to allow for communication, I’ll buy and gift it to you for the money (let’s say minus 50p) through PayPal.

[Bam]

Oh, I must grab this amazing bargain that Baz is offering here. :saywhat:

[Baz]

Oh, I must grab this amazing bargain that Baz is offering here. :saywhat:For clarification I meant 50p less than CD-Keys. For example FM18 is £37.99 on Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/app/624090/Football_Manager_2018/) but only £17.99 on cdkeys (https://www.cdkeys.com/pc/games/football-manager-2018-pc-steam-cd-key?mw_aref=rapdab). But you can get it for the ripe old price of £17.49 from me (http://steamcommunity.com/id/w1ck3d_5k1llz/) if you want.

Plus some people don't trust cdkeys but you can trust me with your life.

[Baz]

PS. Lethal League is free on Fanatical (https://www.fanatical.com/en/game/lethal-league) at the moment.

[phonics]

Started that Idle Master yesterday

https://i.imgur.com/Q7ILtWb.png

Now I just need a game to release for 3.50 and I'm quids in.

[Baz]

Started that Idle Master yesterday

https://i.imgur.com/Q7ILtWb.png

Now I just need a game to release for 3.50 and I'm quids in.Or £4.50 and I’ll give it you for four quid.

[Boydy]

Spec Ops: The Line is free on the Humble Store at the minute. Highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't played it.

[Boydy]

Crusader Kings II is free on Steam at the moment.

[phonics]

I've tried to play that game a good 20 times. It's nonsense.

[Boydy]

I've tried several Paradox games and can't get into any of them but I'll give it a go as well since it's free.

[Ian]

It's amazing but a ballache to get into.

Disco's saves. :drool:

[Pleb]

It's a permanent install apparently :|

[Baz]

Satellite Reign is free on Humble Bundle:

https://www.humblebundle.com/store/satellite-reign

[Disco]

It's amazing but a ballache to get into.

Disco's saves. :drool:

All corrupted :(

[Boydy]

Satellite Reign is free on Humble Bundle:

https://www.humblebundle.com/store/satellite-reign

I've grabbed this. Looks interesting. Cheers.

[Baz]

The flame in the flood is free on Humble Bundle: https://www.humblebundle.com/store/the-flame-in-the-flood?hmb_campaign=freegame_2018_homepage_theflame intheflood&hmb_medium=banner

[Boydy]

Nice one.

I feel kinda bad on Humble as I pretty much always just take their free games and buy very little from them.

[Baz]

Anyone want to play this: https://store.steampowered.com/app/40400/AI_War_Fleet_Command/ ?

NLA47-5E5AR-NKZDN

[Disco]

I've bought Colonization (the original) and that XCom game (to see if Boyd is right) for a total of about four quid.

[Boydy]

:cheer:

[phonics]

Is there anyway I can get something to auto-list all my badges/cards? I currently have 79 and the idea of individually setting prices, clicking sell and verifying that via e-mail makes me want to kill myself.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/steam-inventory-helper/cmeakgjggjdlcpncigglobpjbkabhmjl?hl=en

[phonics]

Ugh.. Chrome.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I know.

It works well though.

[Baz]

Metro 2033 is free on steam for 24 hours:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/43110

[Shindig]

I got it for free when THQ shat itself. Kane and Lynch Dead Men is 69p. I still feel like missing it.

[Ian]

Talos Principle, Day of the Tentacle Remastered, Sonic Mania, Hexcells Infinite and CrossCells so far in the Christmas sale.

[phonics]

Cross Cells looks fun. Sonic Mania is very good but a sonic game. Day of the Tentacle I couldn't play in HD.

[phonics]

Dragonball Fighter Z is down to 25 quid as well which I think is a much better price. If you like the show, it's like playing the anime.

[Pharad]

45% Discount on Devil May Cry 5 pre-order and the Far Cry New Dawn, 35% off The Division 2 Pre-Order on https://www.eneba.com/, not necessarily a big fan of pre-ordering games, but may be worth a pop

[Ian]

Slime Rancher currently free through the Epic store.

[Mike]

Assassins Creed Unity is free
http://assassinscreed.com/unity-notredame/

[Shindig]

I have no idea why SkyShield blocks that. Possibly the word 'Assassins'.

[Ian]

Assassins Creed Unity is free
http://assassinscreed.com/unity-notredame/

"It could be worse, Notre Dame-ers, you could have been playing Unity."

[phonics]

Transistor is free on Epic.

[Ian]

Shadow Tactics at £14 is a bargain for anybody who likes this sort of thing but hasn't played it:
https://www.fanatical.com/en/game/shadow-tactics-blades-of-the-shogun?aff_track=CJ&CJEVENT=ec6169b56db511e9826900610a18050e&utm_source=CJ&cj_pid=8407635&cj_aid=13212017

EDIT: Oh and seeing Phonics' post above reminds me that the remaster of World of Goo is free on Epic just now. :nodd:

[phonics]

I bought Divinity Original Sin 2. That game is very complicated to play Co-Op. We just died over and over again.

[Ian]

It's really not that complicated.

[Disco]

If anything it should be simpler, can't you both pick lone wolf and murder everything? You don't even need companions that way.

[phonics]

With the announcement of the new Wildlands sequel the original has gone on sale 70% off.

And then using uplay points (that you earn by playing other Ubisoft games) you can get 20% off that so it's about a tenner.

[Ian]

Steam sale started and fucking hell basically all my wishlist is at prices I'd consider paying this time.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Anything the Third Hard can get on?

[phonics]

All the games I wanted I'd already got for a quid on GamePass.

[Giggles]

What's the Grand Prix shite about and how do you see the actual list of games that are on sale?

[Ian]

The grand Prix shite is their latest game thing. It's rubbish.

The majority of stuff will be on at some point. I'd go by publisher or genre, I guess, if I didn't have a wishlist.

[Giggles]

I just uninstalled Steam instead, fuck that navigation.

[Ian]

:lol:

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

It's the only logical response.

[Giggles]

It's the only logical response.

I've no games on my laptop and, barring a huge overhaul, I'll never buy and FM again. Clicking 'steam sale' on the front page and being bombarded with that Grand Prix game and nothing else was the final straw.

[Ian]

The game is barely on the front page for me besides a banner at the top.

[Ian]

Prey, the Mooncrash DLC and the VR prop-hunt thing are all on Steam for a total of £6 just now. A steal, I tells ya.

[Ian]

Mutant Year Zero is currently free on Epic. That's an absolute fucking steal. Anybody who likes anything vaguely XCOM-y would be a fool not to get it for frees.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Some PRICK has stolen my username on Epic.

[Shindig]

Some Russian keeps trying to get at my EA account. :uhoh:

[Ian]

Free on the Epic store this week, all the Lego Batman games and all the Rocksteady Arkham games. That is a lot of game.

[phonics]

Stellaris (Civ in Space with customisable races such as 'Racist Robot') is 7 quid

Frostpunk + Season pass is 10.

[Ian]

During the sale there I bought Wasteland 2, King of Dragon Pass and got Titanfall 2 on Origin.

[Ian]

All the sales starting.

Epic are giving away a free game a day and currently it's the thoroughly excellent Into the Breach.

EDIT: Also Epic are giving a tenner off voucher just for signing in.

[Ian]

Okay once you spend the first tenner off they give you another one. Devious bastards.

[Ian]

I've been forgetting to check the Epic Store every day for the free games but today it's the excellent Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. Amazing game, y'all should get on it.

Also Twitch Prime currently giving away, amongst other things, Enter the Gungeon and Ape Out.

[Pepe]

Games I should buy:


Games I will probably buy (and proceed to never play):
F1 2019
The Witcher 3
Red Dead Redemption 2
Assetto Corsa Competizione
The Star Wars thing
Halo
Battletech
Street Fighter 5


I really need to keep myself busy the next few days.

[Gray Fox]

You can pick up The Division 2(Xbox One) from CD Keys for £4.39.

If you ever plan on picking it up you aren't going to get it much cheaper.

[phonics]

That's because it was being sold for 2.99 last week and they're just reselling those keys.

[Ian]

One of this week's Epic Store freebies is The Stanley Parable which is one of the funniest games I've played. And not that long. Perfect in the times of the Doom.

[Raoul Duke]

Saw Control was £20 on the PS store. Think I'll have a bit of that

[Shindig]

The Witcher is now £1.04.

[Ian]

First one?

[Shindig]

Yep. I was waiting for a sale price so I'll grab that after work.

[Ian]

It's a good price for a lot of game but as time goes on the harder I find it to recommend the original game.

I'll say what I say to everybody else who's about to play it for the first time: You'll get to a point in the first act where you're traipsing back and forth a lot between a city and a swampy bit. Just make sure you're clearing everything you can do in each area before you do your next trip back to the other.

[Shindig]

I pulled the trigger at that price. I was thinking about grabbing something else but nothing really took my fancy. Witcher 2 is also going for like £2.64 but I have that on the 360. It'll run better there than on my R7 240.

Scrolling through the sales has been an eye opener in <blank> Simulator games being chucked out for 30p.

[Shindig]

Pro Evolution Soccer 2020 is now £4.99 for Plus Members (£14.99 for everyone else).

[Ian]

Is it any good?

[Shindig]

I like it more than the previous couple of years. Although it does throw things at me that really piss me off. Euro 2020 DLC is coming this week for free.

[Boydy]

Is it any good?

I think it plays a much better game of football than FIFA.

[Mike]

Super easy to fix the names and kits too.

[SincereTheRebel]

Super easy to fix the names and kits too.

Is there an option file that you can add in that does it all for you?

[Shindig]

Yep. I just download the leagues from PESWorld.co.uk

[Ian]

Basically a double post but in case not everybody reads this and the FM thread the new Humble Bundle for BLM stuff is £25 and includes FM20 and a bunch of other stuff.
https://www.humblebundle.com/fight-for-racial-justice-bundle

[Mike]

Dark Souls 3 is a tenner on steam.

[Ian]

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2020/07/17/green-man-gamings-summer-sale-has-some-proper-good-game-deals/

Some good shit in here.

Shadow Tactics for under a fiver is an absolute steal.

[Shindig]

I'm going to pick up the System Shocks on the cheap whilst the 0451 sale is going. Neither of them clicked with me first time around and I only played the first one on Shareware.

[Ian]

Green Man Gaming seem to have some pretty good deals on just now, the obvious standout being the 'Ultimate Edition' of Control for just under £15.

[Baz]

Quiplash is free: https://store.steampowered.com/app/351510/Quiplash/

Potential The Third Hard game?

[Ian]

Another Epic store sale on, if anybody cares. Can't remember if they did this before but they'll give you one of those vouchers for £10 off a £14+ spend just for claiming this week's freebie (which is NKA 2K21.)

[Shindig]

Company of Heroes 2 and Little Nightmares are free forever if you add them to your library this weekend.

[Ian]

Where, Epic or Steam?

[Pleb]

Steam.

[Shindig]

I forget their are other storefronts. Epic give away free shit all the time, it barely registers. :D

[Ian]

https://uk.gamesplanet.com/promo/summersale?ref=JellyDeals

Gamesplanet are doing an enormous sale. Worth a peruse if there's any PC stuff you've been waiting for a better deal on.

[Disco]

It's not until you see them all in one place that you realise how many shitty Warhammer games they've licensed.

[Raoul Duke]

Dawn Of War though :drool:

[Ian]

I assume it's because GW are such money grubbers that a) it's mostly C tier studios (other than CA, who I think are the only exception) doing Warhammer games and b) they often come with off-putting amounts of paid DLC.

I'm kinda interested in Mechanicus and whatever the 4X one is called.

You'd think it's ripe for them loosening up and letting some bigger, more experienced studios have a crack but it'll never happen.

[Disco]

GW go in cycles, either doling out licences only for big projects or letting any fucker with £20 put a Space Marine on the cover. They're now back to being litigious again too, going after modders who accept donations and a load of fan-made animators on youtube. Not a good look.

[Disco]

Dawn Of War though :drool:

I played a bit of Dark Crusade recently, that really was the peak.

[Shindig]

They've got so many properties to fiddle with. Throwing spaghetti to the wall and having so much money for spaghetti. I reviewed Necromunda: Underhive Wars and it just felt like an impersonation of a much better game.

[Raoul Duke]

I played a bit of Dark Crusade recently, that really was the peak.

It was so good. I hated the sequels though :nono:

[Disco]

Soulstorm somehow managed to add to Dark Crusade but also be a worse game. I quite liked 2, the move away from traditional RTS was a bit jarring but I liked the more tactical combat. 3 I have been advised to never play.

[Ian]

I'm sure they used to kick off at FUMBBL as well, who as far as I can tell really only try and make enough money to keep the game/site going.

[Ian]

https://www.gog.com/?pp=10594093386de500e04b3fdabcce7ec3ff556dc5

Moar sale.

[Gray Fox]

https://www.game.co.uk/en/borderlands-3-ultimate-edition-game-exclusive-2869959

Pricing error. Just in case they don't cancel.

[Shindig]

Master Chief Collection is £14.99 on Steam for the weekend.

[Ian]

Prey is the current freebie on epic, definitely worth a go for frees.

[Shindig]

Parted with £12 to get Quake, Quake 2, Quake 4, Doom 3 and Doom 64 from the Steam sale. Not going with BFG edition to keep my Doom 3 AS CARMACK INTENDED.

[Gray Fox]

Control free on the Epic Store today only.

[Baz]

Amazon already gave it to everyone a month ago.

[Ian]

Not everybody will have claimed it, or have the means of doing so, and it's worth having anything you might be interested in on multiple storefronts anyway in case for some reason it disappears from one.

[Shindig]

They may have grabbed it on PS Plus.

[Gray Fox]

Tomb Raider trilogy is free on the Epic Store.

[Ian]

Claimed 'em though I never actually finished the first one.

[Ian]

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun currently free on Epic.

If you like Commandos / Desperados style tacticsy things then this is one of the best.

[Lofty]

Are there any bonafide bargains in the latest steam sale?

[Shindig]

Just looking now. C&C Collection for a fiver might get bought. Mainly because my disc version of Red Alert 2 needs tinkering to work on Windows 10. Plenty of cheap boomer shooters, too. All the Thief games for £4.28.

[Ian]

Hades is an all-timer of a game for £12 and would probably work well on the Steam deck (think it was you who got one?) Divinity Original Sin 2 is incredibly for that price too.

And did you ever finish XCOM WOTC and have you played Chimera Squad? The latter was sort of divisive but I liked a bunch of the things it tried and it's under a fiver.

Those are a few at a glance scrolling down the main page.

[Ian]

I've bought Tinyfolks because it looked fun when Many A True Nerd played and it was £1.50 and I'm eyeballing Shadow Tactics: Aiko's Choice, Warhammer: Mechanicus, Okami, Eliza and Wildermyth. Won't get all of those for fear of the Gamepass jinx but I may get a couple.

[Baz]

Free Steam key for Garfield Kart: https://www.fanatical.com/en/game/garfield-kart-furious-racing

[Lofty]

Hades is an all-timer of a game for £12 and would probably work well on the Steam deck (think it was you who got one?) Divinity Original Sin 2 is incredibly for that price too.

And did you ever finish XCOM WOTC and have you played Chimera Squad? The latter was sort of divisive but I liked a bunch of the things it tried and it's under a fiver.

Those are a few at a glance scrolling down the main page.

I did finish WOTC and enjoyed it. I have got a Chimera Squad save going on though yeah I am not quite as taken with it as the usual entries.

I picked up Divinity Original Sin 2, and yes I got the deck. Loving it so far.

[Ian]

Divinity Original Sin 2 is an incredible game. If you can find somebody to co op it with you even better, but it's great as a solo effort too.

Chimera Squad is an odd one. I wouldn't put it above any of Enemy Unknown, Enemy Within or any XCOM2 stuff but it does some stuff I'd really like the next mainline game to do, whenever we get it. Once they're done with Midnight Suns, I guess.

[Shindig]

I would love to get into X-Com but I panic as soon as it inevitably goes sideways. I know the odds are supposed to be stacked against you but I struggle to appreciate even the littlest of victories.

[Ian]

Have you tried any other turn based tacticsy things? There are plenty which aren't so much about appreciating the bad missions for "narrative" purposes.

Gears Tactics, for example, is largely about endlessly charging forward with a big chainsaw.

[Shindig]

I had one to review. Warrhammer 40k: Nercromunda Underhive Wars or something. Ran the same principles but had all the pacing of a snail with no purpose. And X-Com which I played for about 8 hours before it all got too much. I could probably come back at it with a bit more knowledge. It's been years since I last gave it a shot.

[Lofty]

With XCOM it helps to know what the best research order is as your odds increase massively once your weapons and armour are upgraded.

[Gray Fox]

Death Stranding free on the Epic Store for 24 hours.

[Shindig]

My PC might struggle to run it but I've grabbed it.

[Ian]

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun currently free on Epic.

If you like Commandos / Desperados style tacticsy things then this is one of the best.

The standalone followup, Aiki's choice, is now also free. :drool: Rewarded for resisting it during recent Steam sales.

[Shindig]

It's been a good couple of days for that. Kerbal Space Program for nowt and the PS+ this month had Jedi Dark Souls. And Axiom Verge 2.

[Gray Fox]

If anyone is going to a Tesco today, it's worth checking the Switches in store. Fair few reports at them showing at half price to clear some stock off the shelves.

They've also a few games down to half price too. Animal Crossing being one of them.

[Gray Fox]

This seems like a decent Humble Bundle for £12.

https://www.humblebundle.com/games/must-play-metroidvania?partner=retrogamecorps&charity=418

[Ian]

Star Wars Squadrons is good fun and currently £1.74 on Steam.

[Lofty]

I imagine you have all likely played it but if not, Titanfall 2 is £3.74 right now and one of the best FPS campaigns I've ever played, you don't need to have played the first.

[Ian]

The Titanfall 2 campaign is indeed a belter.
