This week’s best gaming deals: Quake Champions, OLED 4K TVs, Destiny 2, and more

By Jamie Wallace

We’re back once again to take a look at the very best gaming deals from the past week.

Well, we’re in it now. The end-of-year video game releases are coming thick and fast once more and we’ve got a busy couple of months ahead of us. On top of that, the end of next month will see Black Friday rear its head once again. That’s not to say there aren’t some good deals out there on the wild, wild web already. As a matter of fact, we’re here to take a look at a bunch of them, so let’s do just that now.

Giveaway time!
