Thank your own personal deity—possibly Numen, not to be confused with Newman—it's Friday! Let's put this week out of its misery with some cheap games worth spending your next two days with. Personally, I'd gravitate to Ori: The Collection, Hollow Knight, Untitled Goose Game, and a sub-five-buck Brütal Legend. Why the latter? Because it is the greatest and best game in the world ...tribute.

There may be no better use case for the reaction guys than the 2015 E3 announcement of Final Fantasy 7 Remake—screams, meltdowns, tears of joy—and the 2021 release of the stuttery PC version of that same game: screams, meltdowns, tears of bitter disappointment. It was a shamefully barebones release of what should have been a huge game for Square Enix, made even harder to swallow by its 20-month delay after the console release and exclusivity on the Epic Games Store.

If you've been spending all your time over the holidays playing the early access release of Path of Exile 2, you may be eagerly awaiting some substantial patch notes. We've all got our own gripes with the game, which despite an excellent skeleton still needs a lot of work. Thankfully, after weeks of radio silence from Griding Gear Games we're starting to get some drips of bugfixes—and they're hilarious.

The finale of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided wasn't much-loved by fans, which was surprising because you'd think Deus Ex: Human Revolution would have lowered expectations. But it's like the classic bad restaurant joke, where the food's terrible and what's worse, the portions are small. Mankind Divided's climax wasn't just an underwhelming battle against a guy who seemed more like a miniboss—when the credits suddenly roll afterward you realize you're not going to get a second hub city and another dozen hours of hacking people's emails to find out if they're in the Illuminati or not. It's just over.

Despite being a game with plenty of in-game purchases that players can make, often offers players free items with rotating time-sensitive promo codes. This helps alleviate some of the pressure of spending real money in order to enjoy the plethora of outfits available, and adds a lot of fun as well. For many, playing the gacha game mechanics of hoping for new outfit pieces is the best part, so being able to do so for free keeps them coming back.

A new batch of are out, showcasing what Tinkerbell and Hook will look like in the upcoming horror movie. The film will run in theaters for three days only from January 13 until January 15, 2025.

Magnolia Pictures has shared the official trailer for its upcoming suspenseful action thriller, inspired by on the biggest and most spectacular heist in Danish history. Prior to its theatrical and digital release date, the film was first screened at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival.

GKIDS has finally announced the Blu-ray and digital release date for its latest fantasy coming-of-age anime movie, based on Takashi Imashiro’s manga of the same name. This comes after the movie had its U.S. theatrical debut in November 2024.

It’s no secret at this point that launching as a PS5 exclusive ended up hurting Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s sales, but Square Enix is finally set to bring the open world action RPG to a larger audience soon with a PC port. Ahead of its release, the publisher has released a new trailer that highlights some of the upcoming version’s platform-specific features.
