I just ordered Star Fox since I never had a chance to play the original, and reviews say this 3DS version was a good remake/port.

Steam today: The Typing of the Dead: Overkill $9.99 -50%.
Sadly, none of the DLCs are on sale, including the Filth DLC introduced today.

How the heck did I manage to make a double post while editing?

A bit cheaper on GamersGate for those interested. Steamworks, so you get a Steam key regardless. There was a bit of discussion in the game thread and I’d like to reiterate that this game is not kid friendly.

Also a new BundleStars bundle today. Prime World: Defenders looks to be the gem of that lot.

Not a bargain, but BestBuy currently has PS4s with only an additional Dualshock in stock if someone was looking for a pre-christmas one.

Amazon.ca has the Ouya for $89.99 today.

Hahahahaha!

Tearaway for the Vita will be $20 at GameStop starting tomorrow.

Amazon is matching this. It’s currently out of stock, but you can order it for delivery when it’s back in stock.

In stock…where? Not online, unfortunately.

NM, tracker shows they were briefly in stock an hour ago. Back to waiting!

It’s also available as a digital code for $19.99 if you want to go that route.

I picked up PWD during the Steam autumn sale for a little more than the total price of this bundle. I’m still playing through it; it’s pretty fun if you like tower-defense games, but it allows for a lot of grinding (which I’m also fine with), and whether or not you get many of the better towers in the game is largely luck-based due to the use of a card system with booster packs.

I wouldn’t have played anything else in this bundle, and paid for my copy of PWD with Steambucks, so I don’t regret my purchase.

Yeah, they were there when I posted, but I’m sure they went poof very quickly. Sorry. :/

Yup, Amazon price matching physical sale prices with the digital version is the best thing about them carrying PSN codes again.

Tearaway for $19.99.

No worries. You posting it actually had me find a site that updates online availability, so fingers crossed!

Even better I had a $5 promo code on my account from who knows what purchase, so 14.99 for me!

I’ll second what WarpRattler said about Prime World Defenders. It also shakes up the standard TD gameplay a bit with most levels featuring different optional achivements, some of which can be quite difficult. I haven’t played it long enough yet to say how bad the grinding is though - but there isn’t ingame purchases to skip it, so I’m assuming it’s not terrible.

No weekly sales on Steam this week? HMMM…

corkeh · 2013-12-16T14:05:36.000Z

Isn’t it common knowledge that the holiday sales usually take place on the two weeks surrounding Christmas?

Yeah, I thought I read about someone leaking the dates as this Friday through the morning of Jan. 2nd.
