EA Sports FC 25 which is the highly anticipated successor to the FIFA series is currently available at an incredible 50% discount on both Xbox and PlayStation platforms via Amazon. This early Black Friday deal has slashed the price to just $34 down from its original $69.99 which marks a record low for the game since its release.See at AmazonThis substantial price drop comes as a pleasant surprise for football fans and gamers alike especially considering that EA Sports FC 25 hit the shelves only a few months ago, in September. The game represents EAs first foray into football simulation without the FIFA branding and it has been met with positive reviews for its enhanced gameplay mechanics and improved graphics.The discount applies to both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions as well as the Xbox Series X|S edition (not available on PCs) and makes it an excellent opportunity for players across multiple console generations to experience the latest installment in this beloved franchise. This deal is attractive for those who may have been hesitant to purchase the game at full price or were waiting for a significant discount before making their move.PlayStation and Xbox SeriesEA Sports FC 25 brings several new features to the table including enhanced HyperMotion V technology for more realistic player movements, an improved Ultimate Team mode and updated player rosters reflecting the latest transfers in the football world. The game also introduces the new Evolutions feature in Ultimate Team that allows players to upgrade their favorite footballers over time.The timing of this deal, coming well ahead of the traditional Black Friday sales period, suggests that retailers and publishers are eager to capture the holiday shopping market early. Its unclear how long this offer will last, so you should act quickly to secure your copy at this discounted rate. At $34 instead of $69, it represents exceptional value for a game that typically provides hundreds of hours of entertainment through its various game modes, including Career Mode, Pro Clubs, and the ever-popular Ultimate Team.See at Amazon

As Black Friday is getting closer, Amazon has kicked off its early deals with a bang and offers huge discounts on EcoFlow portable power stations. This Monday morning, the e-commerce giant unveiled two great deals on the popular EcoFlow Delta 2 models which is a terrific opportunity for consumers to snag these high-performance power stations at record-low prices.The standard EcoFlow Delta 2 portable power station is known for its impressive 1024Wh LiFePO4 battery capacity and 1800W AC output and its now available at a great 54% discount: this brings the price down to just $459 which is a significant reduction from its original list price of $999. This portable powerhouse is perfect for home backup power, camping trips, and RV adventures.See Delta 2 at AmazonFor those looking to harness solar energy, the EcoFlow Solar Generator Delta 2 bundle which includes a 220W solar panel is on offer at an even more impressive 55% discount. Priced at $749 down from $1,649, this package deal is an extraordinary value for eco-conscious consumers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. The addition of the solar panel transforms the Delta 2 into a true off-grid power solution and its ideal for extended outdoor stays or as a reliable backup during power outages.See Delta 2 + Solar Panels at AmazonThese deals are particularly noteworthy as they match or even surpass the discounts seen during Amazons Prime Day events. However, unlike those exclusive offers, these Black Friday deals are available to all Amazon customers not just Prime members. This broader accessibility makes the current promotion even more appealing to a wider range of consumers. But make sure you get yours before it runs out of stock.Most Popular Power StationThe EcoFlow Delta 2s popularity is evident with over 1,000 units of the standard model sold in the past month alone (and its also our favorite portable power station out there): its 4.5-star rating from over 1,600 customer reviews on Amazon underscores its reliability and performance. The power station boasts fast charging capabilities, reaching 80% capacity in just 50 minutes and full charge in 80 minutes when using AC input. Its expandable capacity and allows users to increase from 1kWh to 3kWh with additional batteries, adds to its versatility.One of the standout features of the Delta 2 is its ability to power almost anything: with 1800W output and 15 outlets, it can handle 90% of household appliances, rivaling traditional generators without the noise or emissions. This is it an excellent choice for those seeking a clean and quiet alternative to gas-powered generators.The inclusion of the 220W solar panel in the bundle deal enhances the Delta 2s appeal for outdoor and off-grid use: with up to 500W of solar input capacity, users can keep their power station charged even in remote locations, ensuring a constant power supply for all their devices and appliances.As part of Amazons early Black Friday deals, these promotions on EcoFlow Delta 2 power stations represent some of the best values available in the portable power market. The combination of significant discounts, high-quality products and the reputation of the EcoFlow brand makes these offers particularly attractive for anyone in the market for a reliable and versatile power solution.See Delta 2 at AmazonSee Delta 2 + Solar Panels at Amazon
