Don’t forget the daily freebies at epic. They threw in a bonus game today, Prey.

How is it a bonus game?

I thought it was a second freebie for the day but maybe not.

Oh, ok, yeah, it's just the game for today. They become available at 11am EST each day.

Another GOG freebie in their big winter sale:

current Epic freebie:

FYI, Epic has the last 3 Tomb Raider games (Tomb Raider, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Shadow of the Tomb Raider) FREE on the 30th.

That's a pretty sweet deal. The first two are really good, and the third is a step below but still not bad.

^ Even better, I read that all 3 games are free until the 6th!

Observer: System Redux $14.99 (XB & PS4)

Far Cry 6 is $19.99 at Best Buy (all platforms) as part of a 24 hour flash sale.

Thomas Was Alone is .99c on Playstation store.

If you’re in the market for a Series S, they’re in stock and slightly discounted today at Woot: https://www.woot.com/offers/microsof...series-s-512gb

it's sickening that more than a year after release these and Series X are still so so hard to come by. really turns me the fuck off. i have one, but if i didn't i would give up by now and live with One. it's fucking ridiculous.

Unintentional silver lining though... there still isn't a true Series X exclusive, right? Everything is still playable on the One, correct?

Flight Simulator is Series exclusive. The big one coming is Starfield in November.

Others:

Judgment (but not Lost Judgment!)
The Medium
Chorus
Bright Memory
Hell Let Loose
Lawn Mowing Simulator
Recompile
The Riftbreaker

Might be some others.

Had to google a few of those, so yeah, not technically on the Xbox One, but the ones I checked are all multiplatform. My overall point was there isn't a Ratchet & Clank or Returnal that Series X owners are missing out on...yet. Mostly objecting to Oldboy's overdramatic, "I'd give up on buying one" even though he already has one, bit. There's no reason to panic about getting one at this point.

For sure, yeah. There'll be some others before the year's out for sure -- STALKER 2, Redfall, Scorn, and Warhammer 40K: Darktide are among those that've been announced as Series exclusives -- and maybe there'll be some others coming in 2022 that haven't had release dates announced (Forza Motorsport?) or perhaps are complete surprises. But from what we know now, Starfield is the only Series-exclusive game with a 2022 release date that feels potentially seismic in scale. And it wouldn't surprise me if that slips to 2023.

I'm not a Skyrim guy, but yeah, Starfield should be a pretty big one.

Seems like everything on GameStop is $15 off if you're a Pro Rewards member, including preorders. So the fancy anniversary edition of Gran Turismo 7 is down to $75, I preordered Kirby & the Forgotten Land and Splatoon 3 for $45 a pop... I don't know if this is an accident or what, but I'm pretty cool with it.

Judging by all the free stuff available online I guess it’s a glitch

I got five orders in. GranTurismo 7 25th Anniversary, Pokemon Arceus, Kirby Forgotten Lands, Triangle Strategy, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands Chaotic Great Edition.

I think they’ve killed the deal now. Waiting for cancellations…

.... And here they all come. Got emails that all my preorders (except maybe GT7 25th Edition) were canceled. At least the Pokémon game shipped before they had a chance to cancel that one as well
