I spent way too many hours knocking together my hands on for Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree, so I’ll just let today’s deals speak for themselves. My quick personal pick: that Humble Bundle that includes LEGO 2K Drive Awesome Edition for $15. Even the non-Awesome-edition is well worth that price. My kids and I love that game.

In retro news, I’m celebrating the 26th birthday of Panzer Dragoon Saga, a holy grail for Sega Saturn RPG enthusiasts and collectors. Why? This four-discer released at the tail end of Saturn’s less than (inter)stellar lifespan in limited numbers, despite deserving a wide audience. All in all, a lovely bleak dystopian setting, unique art design, and a turn-based/real-time positioning battle system that stands up. I remember thinking it was short at 12-15hrs, but I guess that’s a plus if you don’t like your games to drag-oon.
