Daily Scoop: February 18, 2015 – Cold and about to get colder

The next few days aren’t just going to be cold in Philadelphia… they’re going to be the lowest temperatures seen in five years. I really, really don’t want to leave the house. In fact, I don’t even want to leave my bed – I just want to lay around and play Persona 3 Portable. Is that too much to ask?

Meanwhile, at the Humble Store, there are a bunch of new games on sale as well.

Daily Scoop: February 17, 2015 – I’m finally back!

Hey everyone! I was hoping to be back scooping yesterday, but I was exhausted from both IndieCade East and the Toy Fair! Also, New York City is even colder than Philadelphia. The wind chill on Sunday was -16. How is that even legal?

Anyway, let’s get to the deals, shall we? There’s a brand new Humble Bundle – the Square Enix Bundle 2! Pay what you want for Hitman: Absolution, Supreme Commander 2, and Hitman Go. Beat the average to unlock Thief, Murdered: Soul Suspect, and Deus Ex: Human Revolution – Director’s Cut. Pay $15 or more to unlock Tomb Raider and one of my favorite games of all time, Sleeping Dogs. Seriously, it’s worth paying $15 just for that!

There are some new deals at Steam as well. The Midweek Madness deal is Lost Planet 3, which is on sale for $8.49. The Daily Deal is Homefront, which is on sale for $4.99. That’s two games for really cheap!

Finally, the latest Story Bundle is absolutely a must-buy, featuring some great issues of Kill Screen magazine. Pay what you want for issues one through five. Beat $15 to get issues six through eight, as well as the games Glorkian Warrior and Mount and Blade. This is absolutely worth it!
