Whether you’re in the mood for eldritch horrors, cosmic exploration, or the wild west, there’s something here to justify another hit to the backlog. From high fantasy to noir dystopias, I’ve found you nothing but the most banger deals actually worth owning.
This Day in Gaming 🎂
In retro news, I’m celebrating the 30th (!!!) birthday of Tekken, Namco’s groundbreaking arcade fighter that went toe-to-toe with Virtua Fighter. It was the dawn of a new era: no more sprites, no more two dimensions, just pure 3D face-punching spectacular that (somehow) looked beautiful to mine eyes. Admittedly, this OG got left in the dust by the way more seminal Tekken 2, but this…this was the rock upon which Namco built its 58 million copies sold church.

Purchase Cheap for PC
On PC, Control Ultimate Edition is a steal at A$8, a surreal action thriller with a shape-shifting gun and a hotline to the dead. And then there’s Braid at A$2, a title that remains a timeless puzzle-platformer and it helped kick off the indie revolution back in 2008.
