Most Recent: Daily Scoop

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and everyone’s been posting on social media networks the last few days about what they’re most thankful for. This morning I realized that one of the things I’m most thankful for has to be when I actually get on the bus and there aren’t crazy people on it. Last night and this morning I sat down near crazy people who just sat and said insanely hostile things loud enough for everyone around them to hear them, for the entire bus ride. I’m thankful for every time that doesn’t happen. What are you thankful for, friendly readers? Fantastic Achievements? Brutal gameplay? Games that lack QTEs?

Speaking of thankfulness, there are tons of sales about to drop in the next few days, and I’m not sure what to look at first. I’m interested in picking up the Zelda 3DS XL special edition at Target for $150, but I don’t really need the game or the system. I would love to have an XL, but I don’t, you know, need it. And, as always, there are more deals at Amazon. Is it bad that I’m amused that no one is picking up Remember Me at $19.99?

And now, the t-shirts! (more…)

I’m not sure if you’ve checked out Kickstarter lately, but one just launched that you might have some interest in. There’s an adorable Chester Plush from the indie game Don’t Starve. It is so, so adorable, and it’s already been completely funded – unsurprisingly! If you loved this game, you should definitely think about funding this project.

Poking around for early Black Friday sales? Well, check out Amazon’s Gold Box deals (filter by Video Games!) and see if there’s anything you like today. I’m hoping against hope that someone will have the Wii U Wind Waker Bundle on sale, but I’m not sure if that will happen! It was Black Friday a few years ago when I got my special edition red Wii, after all… this would be a great tradition!

Let’s talk t-shirts, people! (more…)

The deals have started coming in hard and fast for Black Friday, and even if you’ve sworn off leaving the house, and don’t want to encourage people to shop on Thanksgiving, it’s impossible to miss the lists and ads for sales that are popping up everywhere. I plan on doing some shopping from my couch this week, but that’s it. I’m not going near any stores!

If you’re looking for some new video game-inspired duds, look no further than the awesome sales happening at Insert Coin Clothing. It’s too bad the shirt I want – Joel’s Flannel – isn’t on that list!

There’s also a great sale happening at Shirt.woot these days – they’ve got all of their catalog available for a limited time! Check out their massive video game section to pick up that shirt you missed. The sale restarts every night at midnight, so if one you want isn’t available now, just try back later!

You might want to also check out this huge list of games on sale at Amazon. You might just find that game you’ve been waiting to go down in price on this list! It is a beautiful thing.

And finally, let’s check out some more t-shirts! (more…)

Guys, I’m not sure if you know this, but it’s an insane time for gaming right now. The PlayStation 4 came out last week; the Xbox One comes out tomorrow. On top of all the launch games, you’ve also got Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I Don’t Know, Super Mario 3D Land, Tearaway, and The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. My brain is exploding. For realz.

In the deals department, Amazon has started Black Friday early with their digital deals. Some of these deals are ABSURD. You can get all three BioShock games for $14.99, Borderlands GOTY and Borderlands 2 for $11.99, and Max Payne 3 with Season Pass for $6.99, among others. You’ll want to take a look.

In what’s starting to become my favorite thing to check every day, there are some new sales over at the Humble Store! My favorite of today’s sales has to be Half-Minute Hero, which is just $2.50. There’s also a new Humble Weekly Sale, featuring Pinball FX2 and lots of tables for it.

Oh, and, uh, there’s a new Cards Against Humanity expansion. :)

Now, time for some t-shirts: (more…)

My friends over at Cipher Prime have great news – their new game, Intake, is on Steam, and it’s on sale! You can get this amazing game for just $8.99, and it’s worth every penny. If you missed the Humble Weekly Bundle, you don’t want to miss this sale!

There’s also a brand new Bundle in a Box! Pay the minimum of $1.99 for Us & Them – Cold War, Storm Over The Pacific, AI War: Fleet Command, Creeper World, Strategic War in Europe, The Trouble With Robots, and Age of Conquest III. Pay more than the average to unlock Mayhem Intergalactic, Project Aftermath, Fall Weiss, and Creeper World 2! And there are lots of extras no matter what you pay. So go scoop it up!

I’ve got a few good shirts for you today as well… (more…)
