Video Game Deals Catch-All

Alan Wake’s American Nightmare and Observer are free on epic.

Fanatical has a bunch of bundles and flash sales.

Geometry Wars 3 for $2.00 is tempting me.
Loved 1 and 2 on the Wii.

Nidhogg 2 is $6 on Switch. Seems like a good fit for it but how does it play compared to the original? Don't care for the look but if it plays the same as better, then I'll grab it.

The Xbox Halloween sale has begun. I'm told the Dark Souls games are on sale, and I strongly recommend them!

I think it is funny that the first DS game is $20 on sale but DS3 is under $10. Yes DS1 is a remaster but still I think it is a bit odd.

Probably just because it's newer. Also better! For many, DS1 is an all-time great. DS3, imho, is more Dark Souls, and very very good, but not in the gaming pantheon.

Qube 2 and Layers of Fear are free on epic. Layers of Fear might be a good Halloween game. Didn't play it but watched Gopher play the game.

Radiant Historia Perfect Chronology is steeply discounted on the 3DS eShop I picked it up for a nice $18 AUD.

Considering PAL copies go for over $100 on eBay, it's a damn good price.

That’s awesome! I paid 20USD. Finished it up a few weeks ago.

Yup, excited to play it (after I beat Strange Journey! )

Still 40 in US. Just watched a review and it looks fun.

It’s been on sale on the eshop 3-4x so far, usually $28 but $20 in the most recent sale.

Cross posted on the xbox forum. Amazon is doing a BOGO 3 Month XBox Games Pass Ultimate promotion for $45. Comes out to 7.50 a month for 6 months. Worth it in my opinion.

Thank you.

I added it onto my existing gold. It converted remaining time to game pass ultimate apparently at a 1 month to 1 month exchange rate, so maybe stock up on that if you don't have ultimate yet.

I added to my current ultimate subscription. Not sure what will happen if you only have the xbox game pass.

Castlevania Anniversary Collection is 59% off at GMG. I'd been waiting for a price drop.

Steam Sale on!
Looks like Hollow Knight is about $7.50, you should get that.
Astroneer 25% off, might be time to bite on that.
Salt and Sanctuary, $5. Definite buy for me.

Well Steam sale looks ok but door kickers was 60% off then I got a coupon for 60% off. That's like 120% off! Wait shouldn't steam have paid me?

That's not how math works!

Make sure to check your other accounts when buying games. Some of these were given out for free on other platforms.

60+60=120. I double checked this in excel. 120 is more than 100 by 20. Numbers cannot lie.

Always a solid point since twitch, epic, gog, humble, ect all seem to give out free games. So many games I forget I own.

Duh.

Sixty percent of sixty percent is twelvety percent.

Nevermind, it's apparently too early for my mind to function in binary today.

Soma and Costume Quest are free on epic. I just completed Costume Quest which is ok. The combat gets a little one note and the story isn't anything to write home about but its a cute game. Haven't played Soma but it looks like sci fi horror. Looks like a good Halloween game.

Soma is good. There's a no-combat mode for it if you just want to see the story, which is worth it.

If you do play it, sit through the credits. The story hasn't quite ended.

This is a bit of a random question, but the answer has been bugging me for a long time. Ok, so...

On a microwave, if you push 60, then it will cook for 60 seconds or one minute. (Following me?)
AND if you also press 1:00 it will cook for one minute, or 60 seconds. (Right, right?)
OK! Well, my question is...
If you add 1:00 + 1:00 it is = 2:00 right? So your food will cook for a total of two minutes.
BUT if you add 60 seconds + 60 second it will only cook for one minute and twenty seconds. Even though 60 seconds is one minute? (I know, confusing question.)

I guess to put it into simplest terms, how come 1 minute + 1 minute = 2 minutes, but 60 seconds + 60 seconds = only one minute and twenty seconds?
