Sure, let’s dive into this. So, it was one of those days, July 5th, actually. Deals everywhere, kinda like a treasure hunt, or maybe a clearance sale but with way cooler stuff.
First off, Samsung gaming monitors. Samsung’s gone and put their 32” Odyssey QD-OLED G8 on sale, and oh boy, it’s a stunner. I mean, it’s got that 4K UHD thing going. The refresh rate? 240Hz—like, seriously, that’s faster than my morning coffee run. True blacks! Yeah, sounds weird, but OLED panels do that. Oh, and the 49” Odyssey G9, massive, right? Curved, like one of those old cinemascope screens. They normally ask for a cool $1899.99 on it, yet this weekend, it’s running just $999.99. Saving up to $900 feels like finding an old crumpled 20 in your pocket.
Moving on—Crucial’s got this T500 2TB Gen4 SSD marked down to $124.99. This thing’s a beast for both your PC and PS5. Need more space? This SSD’s got you covered, with imaginary “storage galore” written all over it. It’s speedy too.
Switching gears for video games (no pun intended)—Assassin’s Creed Shadows, yep, the limited edition. $49.99 seems like a sweet deal for one of the year’s biggest games. We even jotted down an 8/10 review, I remember. They’ve really honed their game mechanics, feels like an open-world dream sometimes—minus the occasional bug, but hey, nothing’s perfect.
Anyway—oh, what about Borderlands 3 for the Switch? Ultimate Edition going for $17.97. I swear, it includes more than I can ever list—base game, bundles, cosmetics, something about a marriage. It’s like getting a stocking full of goodies. A perfect catch-up before Borderlands 4 lands.
Metaphor: ReFantazio strategy guide is next. Almost 600 pages of tips. If you’re like me, lost half the time in video game worlds, this is golden. It’s like having a GPS for your fantasy journey. Might sound nerdy, but strategy guides are sort of a guilty pleasure.
Lastly, the Steam Summer Sale shows up, like clockwork. RPGs from 2025 are dirt cheap. I’m telling you, Guardians of the Galaxy games for under $6—what’s not to love? I didn’t even plan to buy anything, but that sale page? It suckers you in. Every. Single. Time.
Oh, side note—Donkey Kong Bananza’s on pre-order now. Young Pauline’s in it, which is curious. They’re off on an adventure to the planet’s core because, why not? Sounds like a blockbuster… bananas truly encapsulated.
There it is, the scattered musings of a deal-hunting Saturday. Quite the smorgasbord of randomness!
