Whether you're into high-speed hijinks, fantasy epics, or quirky co-op chaos, there's something to tempt every kind of gamer. With discounts this tempting, nows the time to grab a controller, a mouse, or a magic paintbrush and dive into something new!This Day in Gaming In retro news, I'm using a NOS burst to light 26 candles on a cake for Need For Speed: High Stakes. This beloved racing game wasn't just about sating one's velocity requirements while unlocking new whips; lose a High Stakes race, and you'd perma-lose your car. Us launch adopters loved that risk-versus-reward structure and the groundbreaking damage system that would go on to influence the future of racing simulations.Better yet, we had I highly localised Aussie version with Holden VT Clubsport and Ford AU Falcon XR8 featured prominently on the cover. Even cooler, winning the special HSV Pro Cup would unlock Craig Lowndes' MHRT VT Commo'. Using it to evade the fuzz down Durham Road (preferably in split-screen PvP) was mighty boss stuff.What are we ridin' in, Craig? *Blissful look* "Commodores."Aussie bdays for notable games- Super Star Wars (SNES) 1993. eBay- Need for Speed: High Stakes (PS) 1999. eBay- Pac-Man Vs.

One fascinating detail: while the game is set in the 1800s, developers hid references to modern Harry Potter lore, including a sneaky nod to the Room of Requirement. On a darker note, Lies of P takes the Pinocchio story and turns it into a twisted soulslike. Its eerie puppet designs were inspired by the haunting works of E. T. A.
