Hot game deals
Re: Hot game deals
Humble Rhythm Bundle. I don't recognize any of these games except Trombone Champ, but it's at the $12 tier and sells for $15 by itself.
Re: Hot game deals
I loved Beat Hazard 1 and 2, so I assume 3 is more of the same.
Re: Hot game deals
Fanatical's got a big ol' honkin' sale on. Including some Star Wars games I decided not to get in the last Star Wars sale but might second-guess myself on (or maybe just get the Jedi Knight collection for $4? but then again Republic Commando's supposed to be good too, and my copy of the original KotOR is on fucking disc and I don't know where it is and it might be nice to have a copy I can actually access), New Vegas marked down to about $2, that Aladdin/Lion King bundle that I'm pretty sure the reviews saying it doesn't have Aladdin in it are wrong? for $6...
I've already got too much shit, obviously, and as usual most of this stuff goes on sale all the damn time anyway. But still, some good stuff in there.

Re: Hot game deals
Big sales on at Humble and Fanatical; lowest prices I've ever seen on some of these games like Tales of Arise and Outer Wilds. Big discounts on Capcom games, and Humble has a Capcom bundle on but it's mostly stuff I've already got. But if you don't already have Mega Man Legacy Collection, you can get it for a buck; that's a pretty good deal.

I haven't mentioned it in a while, but Outer Wilds is an amazing narrative experience that is don't think I've seen any other game capable of replicating. Highly recommend for everyone that doesn't get motion sickness.

Re: Hot game deals
Green Man's got a sale on. It looks a lot like the other sales.

outer wilds is definitely one of those games i'd love to be able to wipe my memory of and play again
Re: Hot game deals
Metro: Last Light Complete Edition free on Steam. The other games in the series are discounted.
Re: Hot game deals
Warhammer: Final Liberation is free on GOG. Usual terms; newsletter, blah blah blah.
Re: Hot game deals
In case you don't already have Hollow Knight and Bloodstained, Humble has a Castletroid bundle that's got them and some other stuff I'm not really familiar with but is all 90%+ positive reviews on Steam.

Re: Hot game deals
Blasphemous is a decent half-way between classic Castlevania and Dark Souls. Lost Ruins is probably the best mechanically designed, reminding me a bit of Bunny Must Die. But you have to have a lot of ecchi on your screen to get through it.

Re: Hot game deals
Lost Ruins also has a giant slime girl for those of you who are into that sort of thing.
Re: Hot game deals
Okay, fine, I'll go ahead and get the bundle
How fleeting are all human passions compared with the massive continuity of ducks.
Re: Hot game deals
GOG Summer Sale is on, if you're into that sort of thing.
Re: Hot game deals
GOG's got Crusader Kings 2 free again. Usual caveats; account & newsletter signup required.
Re: Hot game deals
Yakuza 0-6 are up for sale on GOG now, and they're all on sale; lowest per-game price is a bundle of all of them for $34.
They go on sale all the time on Steam so I wouldn't worry too much about getting 'em while they're hot, but I dug 0 and 1 (and 7, not currently available on GOG and still Denuvo-encumbered on Steam; I played it on PS4) well enough. Haven't played 2-6 yet.

Re: Hot game deals
Steam sale's on. Deck's on sale too.
Re: Hot game deals
Yakuza: Like a Dragon is on GOG now, and currently half-price. The Steam version still has Denuvo, but I figure that's probably about to change now that they've officially released it without DRM elsewhere. I'd expect it to start falling into the same "frequently on sale" rhythm as the earlier games in the series pretty soon.
It's the first game I played in the series and I enjoyed it very much! The hook in this one is that it eschews the brawler combat in favor of a turn-based RPG system. It borrows more than a little from Dragon Quest (and explains in-story that hero Ichiban Kasuga is a big Dragon Quest fan and keeps hallucinating Dragon Quest things), to the point that I initially assumed the subtitle was because it is so much like a Dragon Quest game; I only found out later that Like a Dragon has always been the series' title in Japan. (Which makes the upcoming Like a Dragon 8 feel like some Rambo 3 shit.)
It's even got a job system, only the Alltrades Abbey is the unemployment office and I love that so much. This is a game where you play a team of middle-aged misfits who, at least initially, are unhoused and looking for work and a roof over their heads but also searching for the answers to the mysteries that have put them out on the streets in the first place.
True to the series, it is crazy over-the-top Japanese gangster/melodrama fare. There's some continuity sprinkled in there but it works pretty well as a jumping-on point. At any rate I liked it enough that after I finished it I went back and played through two of the earlier ones (and have bought the rest and will probably get around to them eventually).

Re: Hot game deals
Humble's got a space bundle that has Outer Worlds and some other stuff in it.
That "other stuff" includes Trover Saves the Universe at the $15 tier and High on Life at the $30 tier, both from Justin Roiland's Squanch Games, so remember that setting the publishers' cut to $0 is an option.

Re: Hot game deals
Xbox controllers are on sale; $45 for the basic model.
If you need another game controller, they're a great choice, and probably the controller I use most these days. I was skeptical about that D-pad but I've been quite happy with it.
