With multiple gaming platforms, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by all the controllers you have to keep in your collection. Fortunately, the GameSir Super Nova is a third-party controller that works with almost every platform in case you're looking for a solid gamepad you can use with multiple consoles. Thanks to Amazon's Prime Day sale, the GameSire Super Nova is down to just $40 (normally $60), and the discount applies to both the blue and pink color schemes. Prime Day runs from July 8-11...
Relooted has been a big surprise for me. Trailers for the game seemed to advertise the sidescroller as a parkour-driven platformer game, but after playing it, I realized that it's first and foremost a heist game. While nabbing your prize and skillfully maneuvering through obstacles to reach the goal as fast as possible is a core part of the gameplay loop, the far more important component is the actual planning and setup stage that occurs beforehand, where you take on the role of a crew's...

While many of the deals are for children's books, there are a few fantasy and sci-fi collection deals for adult readers. On the fantasy side, the most notable deal is The Witcher Saga 5-Book Box Set for only $35 (was $90).
