The Best PS4 Game Discounts In This Week’s PlayStation Store Sale

A new week means a new PlayStation Store sale, so if you’ve been wanting to save money on digital PS4 games, now’s a good time to buy. This week’s discounts include a selection of games from the Lego series as well as a number of titles published by Warner Bros. Let’s take a look at what’s on sale and see if you find anything that’s worth buying.

Maybe you’ve finished Spider-Man, or perhaps you’re waiting for the price to come down before you play it. In either case, you can pick up games starring one of the other big comic company’s most popular heroes for cheap this week. Batman: Return to Arkham and Batman: Arkham Knight are each just $8 right now. And if you have a PSVR headset, you can embody the Dark Knight yourself to solve crimes in Batman: Arkham VR for $12.

Other highlights include Jurassic World Evolution for $51, Injustice 2 for $22, and Middle-earth: Shadow of War for $25. On the cheaper side of the scale, you can pick up indie games like Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons for $6 and Virginia for $3. PS Plus members can save $3 by pre-ordering Hollow Knight Voidheart Edition before its September 25 release.

Finally, Lego fans have plenty of opportunities to save cash this week. The most recent entry, Lego The Incredibles, is down to $36, but the older games are much cheaper. You can get Lego Jurassic World, Lego Marvel’s Avengers, Lego Marvel Superheroes, and Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens for $8 apiece.

Even if you don’t see anything on here you’re interested in, you can check out the full sale for even more discounted games.

Get Four Free PC Games Right Now

Good news, PC gamers. The online retailer GOG is giving away four games for free right now. It’s unclear when they’ll go back up to regular price, so if you like free stuff and you have a PC capable of rendering the pixels of retro games, you’ll want to pick these up as soon as possible.

The games in question are all from the 1990s. You can grab Tyrian 2000, Shadow Warrior Classic Complete, Stargunner, and Bio Menace without spending a dime. And as with all GOG games, they come DRM-free.

Tyrian 2000 is a fast-moving vertical shooter that has you flying through space and blasting enemy ships with a customizable array of weapons. Shadow Warrior is a first-person shooter from 3D Realms, the makers of Duke Nukem 3D. Stargunner is a side-scrolling space ship shooter, and Bio Menace is an action platformer.

Basically, if you like shooting things in the pre-polygon era, you’re going to have a good time. And even if you don’t care for the games, at least you didn’t spend any money on them.

If you have an Amazon Prime membership, you can also pick up September’s free PC games from Twitch right now. These include The Adventure Pals, Guild of Dungeoneering, Gunpoint, and more. And if you’re an Overwatch player, also be sure to grab your free Golden Loot Box.

Cuaron and Netflix’s Roma Is Amazing

Alfonso Cuarón invites us to his childhood and bares his soul in the deeply moving Roma.

Yakuza Spin-Off Project Judge Brings Fresh Detective Action to a Familiar World

After finishing the demo of Project Judge (titled Judge Eyes in Japan) available on the Japanese PlayStation Store, I understood that the development team of the Yakuza series was indeed trying something new. However, it took a while before the demo allowed me to experience that “completely different” experience director Toshihiro Nagoshi had promised.

After an opening story sequence, I was brought to the fictional Tokyo nightlife district of Kamurocho, whose neon-lit streets are well known to fans of the Yakuza series. The camera zooms over the bustling cityscape before settling on our detective hero, Takayuki Yagami, disguised as a homeless person as he prepares for a stakeout. Between the Kamurocho streets and Yagami’s muscular and shady-looking detective buddy, familiarity set in fast.

Sega Mega Drive Mini Delayed into 2019

Sega’s Mega Drive Mini console has been delayed into 2019, according to a tweet by Sega’s Japanese Twitter account. The Mega Drive Mini was originally planned to release in Japan this year.

The good news for classic Sega fans is that the response to the retro console’s announcement earlier this year has been strong enough that Sega is now also bringing versions of it to the United States and Europe. All three regions will get the console, which will be called the Sega Genesis Mini in the U.S., at the same time thanks to a worldwide launch.

Switch Owners Can Now Play Their Games on More Than One Console

Thanks to the release of version 6.0 yesterday, Switch owners now have the ability to play their downloaded games and content on a second console. The functionality works by having users designate “primary” and “non-primary” consoles through their Nintendo Account.

If a Switch owner is without their own console but has access to someone else’s, it’s possible to log into their Nintendo Account on this non-primary console and play all of their digital game content on it. The catch is that users will have to maintain an internet connection while playing their owned content on any non-primary console. If the user loses their internet connection, then the game will pause “after a certain amount of time.” The player can resume where their game was paused once a connection is reestablished.

You Could Buy These Custom Celebrity Xbox One X Consoles

Our Sneak Peek at Netflix’s Maniac Will Probably Just Confuse You

This September, IGN is highlighting the best TV coming your way in the 2018-2019 season. Today, we’re venturing into the unpredictable world of Maniac, Netflix’s new 10-part limited series from The Leftovers scribe Patrick Somerville and True Detective Season 1 helmer Cary Fukunaga. The show stars Emma Stone as Annie Landsberg and Jonah Hill as Owen Milgrim, two strangers drawn to the late stages of a mysterious pharmaceutical trial. Justin Theroux also delivers a scene-stealing turn as the creator of a new kind of pill that “claims to repair anything about the mind, be it mental illness or heartbreak, with no complications or side-effects whatsoever.” (Naturally, you can expect plenty of complications and side-effects.) Maniac debuts Sept. 21 on Netflix.

Advance Review of Netflix’s Roma

This is an advance review out of the Toronto International Film Festival. Roma will debut on Netflix later this year.

Roger Ebert once wrote that “movies are like a machine that generates empathy,” and nothing encapsulates that sentiment better than Roma. Gravity director Alfonso Cuarón has traded the epic vastness of space for an intimate story about his own childhood and the women who raised him. Whether you grew up in a similar situation, or just have a beating heart, Roma pulls all the right strings at the right moments to make you feel like you’ve known this family your whole life.

Cuarón says Roma is 90% based on his own childhood, and based on the level of detail and care, it shows. We follow a chapter in the life of Cleo (first-time actress and breakout star Yalitza Aparicio), a housekeeper in the titular middle-class neighborhood Roma, in Mexico City during the early ‘70s. She works for a family of three boys and a girl. Cleo is more than just a maid, more often than not acting as a surrogate mother to the children in the absence of their parents. She tucks the children in at night, helps them get dressed, and makes sure they get to school on time. She also has the patience of a saint, as when the parents are actually in the house, they are a constant reminder that Cleo is not really a part of their family. While they are kind to her, she is still only “the help”. While Latin-Americans will especially identify with the relationship between housekeepers and the families they work for, Cuarón makes sure that no matter your life experiences, you will still care for this family.
