Shootin’ stuff—it’s a sacred gaming tradition that’s not to be discounted. Except I totally am today. For a measly 9 or so bucks, you can score three noteworthy AAA FPSes, and there’s the option to expand the savings to include some indie gems of the genre as well. Beyond that, I’ve found the best price on the early access Assetto Corsa EVO, plus some of the best titles from 2024. Get scrolling to get saving.
In retro news, I’m celebrating the 14th birthday of LittleBigPlanet 2, a sacktacular PS3 classic that elevated 2.5D platforming and user-generated content to new heights. At the shallow end of this pool you had a wonderful, co-optional story campaign for up to four floaty sackpersons. Waiting beyond that, however, was a black hole Create mode whose enhanced logic and Move support delivered mind-boggling community-built gems.
My mates and I sunk way too many hours into the hilaribad physics of Super LBP Fighter II Turbo and the professional indie level Sealed Fate. Truly, LBP2 was a golden age of UGC where innovators (and not shameless copiers and half-arsed memers) were king. It pains me to think that those creations died with server shutdown.
