Alright, so here’s the thing. You know how Saturdays can be? Just kind of lazy and all about catching whatever’s on sale. I stumbled upon this list of deals for July 5th, and figured, why not share, right?
So, get this. Samsung has these gaming monitors on sale — a 32-inch and a massive 49-inch one. And they’re not just any monitors; we’re talking the Odyssey line. The smaller one (well, relatively speaking, it’s still bigger than my cat) has this impressive QD-OLED thing going on. Rich colors, true blacks, all that jazz. And the big guy, the 49-incher? It’s curved, which sounds fancy and probably wraps you in like you’re in a spaceship cockpit. Normally, it’s like $1,899. But cut it down to $999! Almost feels wrong, right?
Meanwhile, the Crucial T500 SSD caught my eye. I mean, storage — can’t ever have too much. This one’s got 2TB and the speeds make it good for the PS5 too. The numbers? Look like a math problem, but let’s just say it’s fast. $124.99 is the deal. No-brainer if your game library’s like mine, overflowing and all.
And then there’s Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Anyone else love getting sucked into those open worlds? Endless hours, I swear. For $49.99, it feels like a steal, especially given it’s one of this year’s big hits. Oh, and the latest version is tuned just right — like fine wine, but digital. The review I saw gave it an 8/10, so there’s that.
If Borderlands is more your speed, the third one in the series is out for the Switch at $17.97. It’s got enough content packed in to make a buffet blush. Perfect for long weekends when you’re all cozied up and dodging social obligations. You know the type.
Now, a bit of a pivot (I know, I’m all over the place), but there’s this monster strategy guide, Metaphor: ReFantazio. Almost 600 pages! Kind of like reading a novel, but less plot and more tips. For $43.56, it looks hefty, both in weight and info.
Oh, wait — Steam’s Summer Sale! Almost forgot. It’s like the universe decided to bless us PC gamers. New RPGs marked down, and you can snag sweet deals on Marvel games for under six bucks. Feels like I won a mini lottery just scrolling through it.
And last but not least, new Donkey Kong game, Bananza, up for pre-order. It’s DK but bigger and crazier — now with Pauline. They’re off to the planet’s core, whatever that means. Pre-order if you’re into that stuff; it’s already a bestseller.
Guess July’s shaping up to be not too shabby, huh?
