Daily Scoop: June 10, 2014 – E3 in full swing

Yesterday’s and this morning’s press conferences were a blast! We went out to see the PlayStation E3 Experience at a movie theater last night, and it was so much fun. I couldn’t get over LittleBigPlanet 3! There’s so much amazing stuff happening. I feel like I say this every year, but: it’s a great time to be a gamer!

Speaking of being gamers, let’s talk about some game deals! There are a few good sales happening over at the Humble Store right now – you can get into the Prison Architect Alpha for $9.89, get early access to Broforce for $11.99, or grab Cloudbuilt for $9.99.

The Midweek Madness over at Steam is Rogue Legacy, which is on sale for $5.09. Everyone I know has it, but hey – why not buy a copy for a loved one? The Daily Deal is $3.39 for Knights of Pen and Paper +1 Edition. Scoop ’em up!

Daily Scoop: June 6, 2014 – Penny Arcade t-shirt extravaganza

First of all, today is Anthony Amato’s birthday! I let him open one present last night, and he chose the Tetris Lamp! We tore it open and set it up right away. It turns out it’s way cooler than I ever imagined! He gets to open his other gifts tonight after dinner and cake. And it’s a real cake! Not a lie.

Penny Arcade has announced a Spring Cleaning sale – all of their t-shirts are on sale for $9.99 (or less, in some cases). Some of them will be gone forever once they run out, so go grab the ones you want before they disappear!

There are some new sales happening at Steam today. Their Weekend Deal is Magic 2014 — Duels of the Planeswalkers, which is free until Sunday at 1pm. And their Daily Deal is one everyone should buy right this very second: it’s Hotline Miami on sale for $1.49. Go get it!! Now!!

Daily Scoop: June 5, 2014 – Beatbuddy in new Humble Bundle!

If you’re looking for more games to play – and what gamer isn’t always looking for a dozen more games to cheaply add to their backlog? – then I’ve got great news for you! There’s a brand new Humble Weekly Bundle, and this one is the German Edition!

Pay what you want for Beatbuddy: Tale of the Guardians, Spirits, The Great Jitters: Pudding Panic, Tiny & Big in Grandpa’s Leftovers, Galaxy on Fire 2 Full HD, Crazy Machines 2, and The Guild II Collection. Pay more than the average to get Risen, The Book of Unwritten Tales Digital Deluxe Edition, and ArcaniA. Pay $9 or more to unlock Giana Sisters: Twisted Bundle and The Night of the Rabbit: Premium Edition. This is worth it for Beatbuddy alone!

Steam also has some great deals happening today. They’re just starting Stardock Weekend, where you can get up to 75% off Stardock titles. And today’s Daily Deal is 25% off Trials Fusion, marking it down to $14.99. Scoop ’em up!

Daily Scoop: June 4th, 2014 – New digital deals

I’m in need of playing some video games, my friends. I mean I really just want a full day where I do nothing at all but play video games. Ideally, I would take a break to shower (nah) and eat (ice cream) and maybe walk around (to the fridge to get more ice cream), but other than that, just video games until I noticed it had gone from day to night. Maybe once school is over, my dream can come true!

Anyway, let’s talk about some new digital deals I’ve stumbled across! Over at Indie Royale, they’ve got the brand new Phoenix Bundle. Pay the current minimum or more for Cognition Episode 4: The Cain Killer, Cognition Episode 3: The Oracle, The Cat Lady, Lost Civilization, Face Noir, and Reperfection: Volume 1. I want to make so many funny comments about The Cat Lady, but it looks like it’s a horror game and not a simulation of my life, so… yeah.

Over at Steam, you can grab Sniper Elite V for free, but only if you get it and install it before tomorrow at 10am PST. Their Daily Deal is Spore, which is on sale for $4.99. Scoop ’em up!

There are some awesome t-shirts today: (more…)

They’ve also got a new Daily Deal, which is one of mine and Anthony Amato’s favorites: Torchlight 2! This awesome multiplayer game is on sale for just $6.79. Looking to play with some friends? Grab a four pack for $20.39! Can’t play it without playing the original first? Pick that up for $5.09. They’ve got every angle covered!

Daily Scoop: June 2, 2014 – It finally feels like Summer

It’s June, and it really does finally feel like Summer! We didn’t really get a Spring, but I’m OK with that, as we’ve got a good air conditioner, and a few friends with pool memberships. Oh, and I’ve got plenty of video games to keep me company indoors, so I’m not afraid to stay inside. Bring on the heat!

Speaking of heat, there are some hot sales today. Mafia II is 75% off, marking it down to $7.49. This is a great deal! There are also a lot of price cuts over at the Humble Store as well. Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet is $5.24, Imperial Glory is $2.49, Creatures: Exodus is $1.49, and Glare is $4.99, among others. Definitely check them out!

There are even a few great t-shirts, as always! (more…)
