2021 was a great year to be a video game company, or at least it was if you had a big existing franchise to repackage and make tons of money off of. A surprising number of 2021's best-selling games were also best-selling games in 2020, and the rest were part of big, beloved franchises. Like...

Get in quick on these ones. Local brick and mortar retailers are slicing prices on stocking stuffers, and (naturally) online retailers are following suit. Personally, I'd pay particular attention to Resi Village going for half off, and Immortals Fenyx Rising (60% off) is an under-loved ARPG...

Today's the day if you own a PlayStation and have a hankering for post-apocalyptic guinea pigs who are packing heat. Yep, Biomutant is now at its lowest recorded price ever. I've also spotted some great Xbox deals on the Assassin's Creed series—from the back-compat OG (that is enhanced) all the...

Thank your own personal God—most likely Kratos—it's Friday! My goal is to get you stocked up for two full days of shutting out the so-called real world. If you've never played the BioShock series, you can fix this egregious life-error by scoring the whole shebang for 82% off. Multiple platforms...

In July, Ghost of Tsushima was the 110th best-selling game by dollar sales in the US — not even worth a mention in a sales roundup. In August, thanks to the Director's Cut release, it shot up to No. 2.According to The NPD Group, it was second only to Madden NFL 22, which took the top spot in...
