This article was originally published on link to post

Who’s ready to sprint-slide into some ripper deals? Whether you’re after demon-slaying RPGs, chaotic kitchen co-op, or open-world adventures, this week’s gaming bargains have you covered. Of particular focus is the ongoing Steam Spring Sale. It’s currently destroying my wallet. Allow me to help it eviscerate yours too.

This Day in Gaming 🎂

In retro news, I’m celebrating the 25th anniversary of Fear Effect, a four-discer I adored at launch and would kill to see revived again. The formula was basically an early Resi Evil/fixed camera affair that had more engaging stealth/gunplay, actually decent voice acting, a badass cyberpunk setting, and adult imagery galore. The latter made it reminiscent of early ’90s anime for me—sweary, hard-boiled characters, goretastic death cinematics, and some fan service (implied) nudity. Sadly, it doesn’t hold up well today, visually, thanks to its unique fusion of 3D models with low-bitrate video backdrops.
