Right, you’ve made it through another week so it’s probably a pretty good time to take a moment to check out the best gaming deals of the past week. Conveniently enough, that’s what I’m here to help out with! Let’s get to it.
As usual, we’ve got deals that’ll work in the UK, deals that’ll work in the US and some deals that will work in both the UK and US, as well as presumably many other places. Let’s get started.
Giveaway time!

This offer is almost over at the time of posting so you’re going to need to be quick off the draw. If you are, however, you can pick up a Steam copy of 2D fighting game Skullgirls for the ridiculously low price of £1.04 / $1.50 from Bundle Stars right now. ‘Nuff said, really.

One last thing of note back at GOG.com this week, the site announced its pre-order offer for upcoming horror puzzle-platformer Little Nightmares. Pre-ordering a PC copy of the game from GOG will give you instant access to the now-BAFTA-winning Inside from PlayDead. That game alone is worth about £15, so it’s not a bad offer at all. If you were planning on picking up Little Nightmares anyway, this one is a no-brainer.
