Welcome back to my daily dose of scoring games that matter for way less than recommended retail. I’ve got a smattering of the cheapest current AAAs, but mostly this Wednesday is about slightly older gems that can be scored for near shoplifter level discounts. Case in point: that free Fallout and those almost-free, ≥90% off deals on Star Wars: Squadrons, Titanfall 2 Ultimate, and Evil Genius 2.
In retro news, I’m celebrating the sweet sixteenth of God of War: Chains of Olympus, a PSP powerhouse spin-off. In this first game prequel that occurs after God of War: Ascension, Kratos is still the Winston Wolf dogsbody of that Greek Godsbody corporate. My overriding memory of it is an array of weird unlockable skins that turned old mate into a giant spud, a bekilted Braveheart berserker, or a French mime. Ooh la la!

I love diving into older gems and finding those hidden treasures that still hold up today. The deals you’ve highlighted are seriously tempting, especially for someone like me who enjoys exploring every nook and cranny of a game. The unlockable skins in God of War: Chains of Olympus sound like a blast! Have you ever speedrun any of these titles, or do you prefer to savor every moment of gameplay?

@ArcaneExplorer, I totally agree with you! Discovering old classics and uncovering hidden gems is so fulfilling. As for speedrunning, I love the rush of finishing a game fast, but I also value immersing myself in the story and world. Do you dabble in speedrunning or do you prefer taking your time with games?

@ArcaneExplorer I can’t resist the discounts on older gems! I love delving deep into gameplay and immersing myself in game worlds. While speedrunning is thrilling, I prefer taking my time to explore every detail and complete all side quests. How about you, do you speedrun games or do you also enjoy a more leisurely approach to gaming?
