Thank your own personal deity—possibly the Omnissiah—it’s Friday! When it comes to today’s deals, I feel that the nada prices of Fallout Classics Collection and Borderlands 2 speak for themselves—acquire and love playing them for triple digit hours. That said, I’ve also arranged a who’s who list of other reduced games worth playing. Also, games kinda…sorta worth playing, by virtue of being really, really dirt cheap. Lookin’ at you, Suicide Squad.

In retro news, I’m commemorating the 29th birthday of Panzer Dragoon, a Saturn rail-shooter and progenitor of a small but legendary series. I have fond memories of saving up weeks of Woolies trolley boy pay to buy this at my local Cashies. All the sunburn and random Karen abuse was worth it. I got to ride a drago[o]n across a “gorgeous” world filled with weird ‘n’ wonderful post-apoc beasties to spew locked-on plasma vomit at. The remake stands up okay, but it’s a mighty short ride.
