Gold-Plated Games

The tides of the Weeklong Deals have shifted once again, now towards platformers and roguelikes and bringing the Crysis series along. There are some rarer gems on offer right now like Touhou Luna Nights and Yuppie Psycho that you should definitely consider if you haven’t yet. We’ve even got a small discount on Titan Chaser, a promising indie title that I just checked out last week. Really there’s a little something for everyone, and that’s about the best you can ask from your Weeklongs.

BRING IT IN
