Unmissable Saturday Deals: Tangents and Tech Galore!
Hey, so, have you ever scrolled through a list of deals and wondered why some just scream at you? No idea why I noticed this, but it stuck with me that this Saturday, July 5, is like a digital garage sale of epic proportions. Maybe it was intentional. Or maybe I just got distracted. Who knows.
Samsung Screens: For the Love of Gaming
Oh, man. Samsung’s got these gaming monitors this weekend that kinda feel like they’ve been sent from the future. The 32” Odyssey G8 is one of those, what do you call it, QD-OLED panels. It’s got true blacks—maybe the blackest blacks you’ve ever seen? Sounds dramatic, but trust me. Anyway — wait, no — where was I? Right. The G9’s a 49-incher that can look weirdly sci-fi. Only $999.99 from $1899.99! If I were crafting a gaming lair, this’d be the crown jewel.
Crucial Storage: SSD Jazz Hands
If storage solutions were jazz hands, the Crucial T500 would be doing a solo. This SSD zips through data like it’s in a race. Speeds hit 7,400/7,000MB/s. Yeah, I mean, do you even need that much speed? The PS5 will barely break a sweat with this one. Not that I’ve measured my storage anxiety or anything…
Assassin’s Sneak-in-the-Creeds
Assassin’s Creed Shadows is like the old comfy shoes of video games. $49.99 this weekend! It’s a load you’ll love dragging through for hours. And you might wonder, "Why do I keep coming back to this game?" Just sharpening edges, exploring worlds—all the Assassin’s Creed-y feels.
Borderlands and Other Random Interruptions
Right, if you’re like, mega into Borderlands, the third one’s Ultimate Edition for Switch has everything thrown in. It’s like the whole enchilada of gaming expansions for $17.97. And, I just realized, how did we ever play games without expansions? Total chaos. Or maybe it’s just me feeling nostalgic.
Strategy: Metaphor Madness
So, Metaphor: ReFantazio has this massive guidebook nearly bursting with info. Picture lugging around 600 pages of gaming wisdom. It’s $43.56 if you’re into strategizing your RPG life. I think old-school gamers might love the tactile feel of a proper book. Or maybe that’s just a me thing. Like, do you need a strategy guide for life? I probably do.
Steam Steals and Where to Find Them
The Steam Summer Sale! It’s like being a kid in a candy store, without the sugar crash. Crazy discounts on RPGs and big-name titles. Fancy a bit of Oblivion? Maybe Guardians or whacky Crash Bandicoot? All under $6! Play at your own pace—a luxury of digital times.
Donkey Kong’s Wacky Pre-Order Parade
Last one and then I’m off. Donkey Kong Bananza, on the Nintendo Switch 2, which, I’m pretty sure involves epic adventures. Bananza is a mishmash of DK adventures with a sprinkle of youthful chaos starring Pauline. It’s almost like wishes and dreams come alive in a video game.
So, dive into this whirlwind of tech bliss and strange contemplations. Maybe you’ll find something you never knew you needed. Or maybe you’ll just smile at the absurdity of it all. Who knows.
