The Game Sales and Deals Thread, With No Apologies to Anyone
The EU version of the sale is really decaffeinated (no 3D classics, not all the SMT series) but Etrian Odyssey Untold 2 *is* on sale. Mmmm....
Soul Hackers is on sale, at least. £4-odd is a steal for possibly the best game in the series, imo. Treat yourself - it's Christmas!
Got that one in physical back when it was on every sales bin. Although getting it digital means I'll never have to remove the wrap.... 🤔

A bunch of Ace Attorney games too, although those have been ported so much it's hard to track prices now. I finally picked up Legend of Kusakari too, it's been on my wishlist for a while but sounded quite silly and something where I might lose interest in quickly.
How was Steamworld Heist? It looked repetitive to me but still interesting, and if it's $3 instead of the normal $15...
I absolutely loved Steamworld Heist; it was one of my favorite SRPGs on the 3DS.
Steamworld Heist is wonderful!
I consider it a TRPG, but yes, it's very unique.
It’s turn-based Scorched Earth
weird thing is I can think of a second example of this

I am delighted by this series of posts and am absolutely buying it now.

Squids Odyssey/Wild West?
There’s also Dragon Ball Fusions, though that’s more angry space man marbles
Squids it is!
Also Beastbreaker, but there are no hats in that.

There sure are a bunch of different ways to buy the recent Hitman games in the End Of Year PSN sale. I don’t which ones to get for maximum Hitmanning!

Red Faction Guerrilla Re-Mars-Tered is just three dollars on the Switch right now. It's not the greatest port from my understanding, but still, three dollars to re-unite with the Space Asshole ain't a bad admission fee at all.
I remember trying to see how much of the bridge I had to disintegrate before it would fall down in that game.
I swear, bringing down that bridge was the single hardest challenge the game had to offer.

Best Buy is offering a 128GB Switch memory card and a 12-month Switch Online membership for $35. If you don't already have a larger memory card this is a good deal, I think it's essentially getting the memory card for free.
Already expired, sadly!

Codenames Duet is $8 at Target. I haven't played this version but have had several friends say it's their favorite version of Codenames, and sounds like a good thing to try now when cases are surging!

Lots of Xbox 360 and classic Xbox games are on sale this week, including the two Timesplitters games for $2.49 each, and three Max Paynes for $8.99 each. I think GunValkyrie is also available for $5.99, for those who can put up with its awkward control. What's not for sale, frustratingly, are the two Otogis, which remain $20 apiece.
If you don't want to deal with the F2P nonsense Konami is having a sale until the 25th which includes their (one time purchase only) game that covers almost the entire history of the card game and a cliff notes version of all of the associated animes/cartoons then you could get:
Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist : Link Evolution on Steam
Build your Deck from over 10,000 cards and take on the most iconic Duelists from the Yu-Gi-Oh! universe. Relive the stories from the original Yu-Gi-Oh! animated series through Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS!
It's more or less fun but can be kind of frustrating especially if you don't like grinding or going up against BS decks.
Also, you might want to avoid that game's predecessor which is a DLC fest.
I appreciate the recommendation, but a few things though:If you don't want to deal with the F2P nonsense Konami is having a sale until the 25th which includes their (one time purchase only) game that covers almost the entire history of the card game and a cliff notes version of all of the associated animes/cartoons then you could get:

1) I don't have a computer for Steam stoofs
2) The Switch version is not on sale right now.
3) I consider Master Duel's general lack of anime/manga stuff in favor of just being a card game simulator to be a feature, not a bug.
Honestly I've more a casual interest in Yu-Gi-Oh! (the card game) anyway, so a F2P game with online multiplayer is just right for me.
