Daily Scoop: October 6, 2015 – Nathan Drake is back!
Today’s the day – Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection is out! [Ed. Note: Nicole got a little overeager, Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection will be out on October 9] I didn’t pick it up – I mean, I want to, don’t get me wrong, but I have so many games in my backlog that I can’t in good conscience do it. So, I’m just going to watch from afar and try to get through some of these other games so that maybe, just maybe, when it goes on sale, I can pick it up and not feel guilty. Ha! Yeah right.
Speaking of buying more games, there are some good ones for sale at the Humble Store. Pick up Prison Architect for $19.99, Skyhill for $13.49, and Read Only Memories, which is also $13.49.
Over at Steam, the Midweek Madness is early access to Ark: Survival Evolved. Nab the game for just $20.09. The Daily Deal is for Kingdom Rush, which is just $2.49.
