Thank your own personal deity—possibly Kratos—it’s Friday. The deals today (as amazing as they are) will feel a little deja vu from yesterday. Basically, I’m patiently waiting for some of the PS Showcase gems to get listed in online stores. When those preorder opps pop, I’ll be sure to update. Until that time, stay safe, save often and see you Monday.

Switch Super Mario Odyssey
The Switch’s chameleon-esque ability to change between being a home console, a handheld, and a mobile party-game machine helps it rise above. On the go, it’s a powerful piece of hardware with a gorgeous screen, and it slays boredom and long commutes.
FIFA 23’s slick and dramatic virtual football is fitting for the series’ last hurrah under its long-time name. Familiar frustrations abounded at launch but there have been patches. That said, it’s still the best representation of o jogo bonito.
In Mirage, experience the story of Basim, a cunning street thief seeking answers and justice as he navigates the bustling streets of ninth-century Baghdad. Explore a vibrant city, and uncover the secrets of four unique districts as you get your stab on.
Basically, you play as a freelancing mercenary responsible for securing a new fuel source found on the planet Rubicon 3. So, yeah. Blow crap up in a huge mech. What’s not to love here?
