Daily Scoop: December 29, 2014 – Last days of 2014
This is the last week of 2014. How are you going to spend it? Right now I’ve got tons of gaming planned, but I’m also cleaning, working on our Kickstarter for RESISTOR_, and experiencing some culture by doing things like going to magic shows. I’m trying to let 2014 go out as radly as possible.
Speaking of stuff that’s rad, let’s talk about deals. At Steam, you can get Don’t Starve for $3.74, The Stanley Parable for $4.49, and Battleblock Theater for $1.49, among many others.
That’s not all. Head to the Humble Store for even more sales. The Tomb Raider Collection is $15.99, and includes 11 games. You can also nab The Escapists for $9.99, early access to Vector Thrust for $9.74, and Sportsfriends for $13.49. That last one isn’t much of a deal, but trust me – that package is well worth it.
There are lots of great shirts today! (more…)
Daily Scoop: December 26, 2014 – Post-Christmas sales
We had a pretty great Christmas yesterday, though I think Anthony is ready to murder me for the six new games I got. I also really want to use my Amazon points to buy a Wii U, which he is adamantly against. I’ll keep you posted, readers!
There are some great deals listed over at Kinja, like this Majora’s Mask for 3DS preorder – use code EMCWHHE53 to get the game for $34 (and a commenter pointed out that you can preorder it for $31.20 at Best Buy right now). They have lots of other game and tech deals there too, so you should check it out!
The PlayStation Network is having a Flash Sale as well, which lasts until 12/29. I think I might pick up the Tales from the Borderlands – Season Pass for $15.99, and The Walking Dead: Season Two for $6.25.
Of course, there are lots of sales at Steam today, like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive for $7.49, Kerbal Space Program for $17.99, and Turbo Dismount for $3.39.

Well, technically, it’s the day before Christmas, not the night. My vacation is in full swing, and I am really enjoying it – though I’m mostly doing a lot of cleaning and re-arranging, which feels amazing. Spring cleaning, eat your heart out!
