[QUOTE="Admin, post: 69417, member: 1"] [IMG]https://assets-prd.ignimgs.com/2025/12/04/dec-4-this-one-1764807934840.jpg[/IMG] As I said yesterday, Black Friday is cactus, Cyber Monday has come and gone, and yet the shelves are still groaning under the weight of tasty discounts. It's that weird, magical pocket of the year when retailers refuse to give up the ghost, and anybody with a wishlist can quietly scoop up wins before stockists remember to raise prices again. If you have even a hint of FOMO, now is the time. Go get amongst it.

I didn't dislike it at launch, but I also didn't adore it. I dug the painterly world and the smooth, lyrical flow of the acrobatics, but Elika's death-nullifying rescue mechanic was not to my masochistic tastes. It turned tension into routine and stripped the platforming of the razor-edge stakes the series was once famous for. And while the one-on-one duels had flair, the whole experiment proved to be an evolutionary dead end. Just a beautiful cul-de-sac Ubisoft explored with gusto before quietly reversing out of.

In Mathew Manor, my sons and I are again racing this year's batch of [B]LEGO Advent Calendars[/B]. Basically, we open the City, Harry Potter, Minecraft, and Star Wars on the daily and compare the mini-prizes for "Awesomeness" and "Actual Xmas-ness". 2024's winner was the Lego Marvel one, but, weirdly, there's no 2025 equivalent. So it's anybody's race this year. Here are the cheapest prices for the four calendars we're using. Score them yourself or just live vicariously through our unboxings.
