    Why is Dead Space deluxe only $8 already? I thought I heard it was a really good remake?
    I didn't really have intention of playing this even though I have GPU... But I bought this game just because of how much of a steal the price is!
    It's only the upgrade to the deluxe edition (skins, etc).
    No it's NOT. It is the FULL Digital Deluxe Edition as a special offer to GPU subscribers. You will still 'own' this game even if your GPU subscription expires one day. (Well, as much as you can own a digital copy, anyway.)
    So it is. It's not in this list though, I can only see the standard edition for £27, but when I went to that and viewed the price tab I saw the link for the upgrade. Bit more poking around that tab and eventually found the "included in" deluxe edition. TA really need to make the price tab more user friendly. Great deal for those interested.
    Stoke me a clipper, I'll be back for Christmas... Whatever!

    I have no idea because it's not that cheap on the Playstation store.
    Well, this is an xbox sale so...
    It's fair to wonder why a third party game is selling differently on different consoles. That's a weird move by the publisher imo

    Either way, I "own" it through GP so no biggie.
    It’s no so much because it is a Xbox sale but because it is GPU sale. PlayStation doesn’t have GPU.
    Oh duh. I should have realized that when you pointed that difference out in thread early. My bad.

    Thanks! toast
    I'm escaping to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by capitalism...SPACE!

    Daily deals for Countdown started yesterday. It’s only been movies so far. 6 more hours today for DC movies (including $20 bundle for all of them minus Blue Beetle and Aquaman 2 which just hit theaters).

    I got killing floor 2 since looked fun but servers are terrible for searching and we pretty dead so I ended up not bothering playing it

    It's kinda dead but I still manage to find about 3 to 4 players online. Yeah wish I knew about this game years ago. I like it.

    Loads missing from this list

    Lone Wolf for example, despite being rubbish is £1.19 and also Flashback 25th Anniversary is like 79p

    The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition (Windows) is a good deal. Moreover, I've just finished writing the walkthrough and submitted it for editorial review. It should be published in the next few days.

    It's designed for a risk free single playthrough on Supernova. It sticks to the basic framework of the two playthrough approach of the excellent The Outer Worlds Walkthrough so people who played the original version of the game using it will be in their comfort zone. But, because fast travel is very limited on supernova, I eliminated most of the backtracking so it's more streamlined and there is no mop-up required.

    People who want to use the 2 playthrough approach are welcome to do it. I provide more side quest, leveling, and equipment detail than is included in the original game's WT. So, 2 playthrough gamers can use it to get all achievements except for Hard and Supernova and use page 10 of The Outer Worlds Walkthrough for a supernova speedrun for the last 2 achievements. They would have to bear in mind that the Spacer's Choice edition increases the critical skill checks substantially, but this new walkthrough covers that.

    They belong to the weekly sale not this one.

    I won’t be buying games at all next year due to working on the backlog instead.

    Is Stray worth getting at €22.50? I've been interested in it since it released.
    One does not simply stop playing xbox

    I'm going to be cultivating my backlog. Let it grow, let it grow, let it grow. laugh
