UPDATE: Jan. 13, 2023, 3:30 p.m. EST This list has been updated with the latest and greatest gaming deals across the internet. Here’s a quick look:
Gaming is a pricey hobby to keep up with. Not only do a staggering number of must-play titles release each year, but they’re also expensive. (Yes, games cost $70 now.) That’s why each week, we’re bringing you the best gaming deals we can find, so you can stay in the know about the hottest new games without stressing over video game-induced debt. Whether you’re looking to catch up on your backlog with discounted titles or are hoping to freshen up your setup with some new hardware, we’ve got you covered.

It’s a harsh truth, but the PlayStation 5 simply did not launch with enough storage. It’s a frustrating reality considering how expensive they are (not to mention how difficult they’ve been to track down), but it’s where we’re at. We highly recommend picking up an extra SSD to pair with your shiny new console, so you never run out of space. This one from Western Digital is top-tier, and it’s $130 off during Best Buy’s sale.

If you consider yourself a fan of 2008’s Dead Space, then 2022’s The Callisto Protocol is pretty much a must-play for you. It’s a spiritual successor to the Dead Space series, and was even created by members of the original studio that made the Dead Space games. You’ll assume the role of Jacob Lee, a cargo pilot that finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time, trapped in a space prison that’s overrun by evil extraterrestrials. You’ll have to fight your way through various sections of Black Iron Prison, warding off creepy crawlies with an arsenal of futuristic weaponry while trying to conserve as many resources as you can. Will you escape?

Who doesn’t love a little bit of nostalgia every once in a while? If you grew up playing the original Spyro games, the Reignited Trilogy isn’t something you should miss. You’ll get all three original Spyro games fully remastered in HD, with impressive graphical updates and new controls to make them feel more modern — all without compromising on the charm that made them so special in the first place.

Curved gaming monitors may not seem like game-changers right away, but they certainly can be. Samsung’s curved 100R panel attempts to replicate the curvature of the human eye to cut down on strain and increase immersion, which makes playing feel better. The monitor also features a 240Hz refresh rate, 1ms response times, AMD FreeSync Premium support, WQHD resolution, and HDR10 compatibility.
