I'm not sure if it's on sale but if it is I might grab Deep Rock Galactic, since @ShiraNoMai has been playing that recently and she told me it was a really good L4D style game but with elements of Minecraft, so I'm intrigued about it.
It's on sale for just under $10 now, which is the price I paid for it too! Definitely worth the money, if you ask me.
Considering picking up FFVI, even if it's only a 20% discount. I never finished my playthrough on my SNES Classic but I feel like it's gonna be hard to come back to that version.

Don't know if there are any Mafia fans here, but if not you might still be interested in this upcoming giveaway:
As the tweet says, the original Mafia will be free to receive on Steam from September 1 until September 5. I might grab it just to have it even if I never end up playing it, since free shit is free shit.

Speaking before of Resident Evil, 2K put up a Bundle on Humble Bundle featuring literally $600+ of games, including!
- Borderlands 3 Super Deluxe (which is most of the DLC, not all. At least I don't think it is)
- All the XCOM games that exist (both new and old! Not The Bureau. No one wants that)
- Civilization 6
- Bioshock: the Collection
- And more!
All for 16 bucks! Bundle is available until sept 21st at 9 pm at the following link:

Man I wish there were bundles for console games on Humble. I'd have a much higher chance of playing some of the stuff they offer but I'm awful at doing that on PC. I've started Darkest Dungeon like three times now and I barely get past the first few levels before just forgetting to go back. XD
Also I'm curious, what's wrong with The Bureau @Maniakkid25?
RE: Game Sales, Deals, and Giveaways - Maniakkid25 - Sep 9th, 2022
Uh, it sucks? Granted, I've never played it, but from what I hear, its basically a mediocre Mass Effect with a thin veneer of XCOM on it. It's meant to be an origin story for the eponymous organization, but everyone pretty much ignores it.

For fans of Square Enix games, there's currently a sale on a lot of their games on Humble Bundle for TGS:
Most notably, Octopath Traveler 2 (Steam) can be pre-ordered for 50% off, as shown in the tweet embed.
Edit: OT2 was not supposed to be in the deal and was an error, thus it has been removed from the sale.
RE: Game Sales, Deals, and Giveaways - Mr EliteL - Sep 24th, 2022
Thought that sounded a bit mad, getting a pre-order of a new upcoming game for half the price. I'd honestly still go for a physical version though regardless.

The black modern Xbox controller is $39 if you want something for your PC:

Steam has announced the dates for their Autumn/Winter/Spring Sales:
I never knew Steam gave out the dates for their notable sales far in advance; I'm used to hearing about a big sale coming up like a week or two beforehand.
RE: Game Sales, Deals, and Giveaways - ShiraNoMai - Sep 29th, 2022
I can't say I've known Steam to outright state their dates, but people have known for years generally when they would typically do their "x" sale. The buzz you hear around it comes from people realizing it's about the time of year for them to push the sales out.
Interesting they're moving away from Lunar New Year, and just going for the completely vanilla "Spring" option. Wonder what made them change that?

Looking at the dates though I think it's just because the Lunar New Year sale falls too close to the Winter Sale and it makes sense to axe it in favour of just having four seasonal themed sales.
RE: Game Sales, Deals, and Giveaways - Moonface - Oct 25th, 2022
Not a typical giveaway, but I just saw this tweet from PlayStation with codes for three dynamic Ghost of Tsushima PS4 themes:
Sucks that I don't really have a use for them since I have my PS5 (which lacks themes
) but I'll still redeem these just to have them in case maybe one day PS4 themes get brought over to PS5.

With Black Friday only a week away in the US, some information on particular deals is starting to come out. Walmart has a couple of pages showing the deals they will be having:
The second is the better of the two but because I don't know if the first link has anything different on it I decided to share both.
As for deals I have my eyes on, I might try to get the following:
- Spider-Man: Miles Morales (PS5) - $20
- Dying Light 2 (PS5) - $20
- Elden Ring (PS5) - $35
- Horizon Forbidden West (PS5) - $35
Other sales I've come across while writing this post:
- Xbox has almost 900 titles on sale for Black Friday on their website: https://t.co/PH3KlKMx6s
- Bandai Namco have a Steam sale currently happening: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/33042543/sale/BandaiNamcoSale
- Soul Hackers 2 is on sale for $35 on Gamesplanet: https://us.gamesplanet.com/game/soul-hackers-2-steam-key--5694-1
