This RX 7800 XT is going for just $480 in the US with a free copy of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
AMD’s best value graphics card is the RX 7800 XT – stop me if you’ve heard this one before. Today American customers have a great chance to pick up a powerful Gigabyte Gaming OC model of this card for just $480 thanks to a discount code at Newegg.
For the reduced price use BYJDN2823 at the checkout. As well as the graphics card, you’ll also pick up a complimentary copy of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, which is nice too.
I’m stoked for this immersive sim about escaping a town in the shadow of a colossal policeman
I was instantly taken with the idea of Militsioner when I first saw it in 2021. The upcoming “Kafkaesque” immersive sim gives you the simple goal of escaping a town within a few days, a task which is somewhat complicated by the fact that a Leviathan-sized Russian cop towers over the city, watching you. In a new dev blog, developers TallBoys explain more of how you might court the giant’s approval (the term “fully fleshed dating-sim mechanic” features) or avoid it by sneaking about while he sleeps. You might even—gasp!—do crimes. This also drew my attention to a ten-minute gameplay video they released last month and oh, yes, please.
Former Cyberpunk and Bioshock devs reveal eerie post-apocalyptic open world shooter Hornet
Antistatic Studios, a new outfit made up of former Cyberpunk 2077, Bioshock and Borderlands developers, have announced their debut title, a PvE co-op tactical shooter set on a haunted, post-apocalyptic continent. They’re codenaming it Hornet. The announcement trailer is sort of Lethal Company meets STALKER with a bodycam found footage perspective. It’s quite the cocktail of tropes, though I’ll take this over another “Soulslike roguelite deckbuilder” or similar.
20 Small Mazes is an extremely good game made of, er, 20 small mazes – and it’s free!
Do you like puzzles? Do you like free games? Do you like free puzzle games that are charming and idiosyncratic? Then you’ll love 20 Small Mazes, a game that is just 20 small mazes. As the Steam store page says, they’re good mazes, though. It’s out on February the 16th from FLEB, which seems to be just one guy who really likes puzzles and making puzzles. I wholly support him.
Persona 3 Reload review: a high school reunion better left in the history books
On the 23rd of May, I strode out of the exam hall with my head held high. Not only had we cleared out the 42nd floor of the cursed extra-dimensional horror house that was our school’s midnight alter-ego, I’d also just aced my midterms. I spent the afternoon helping my french foreign exchange friend sew a kimono for his estranged uncle, then killed some time before bed by consoling the small child I’d been hanging out with lately about her parent’s divorce.
So goes an average day in one of the very, very many days stuffed into Persona 3 Reload’s year long taste of demon-slaying high school life. A charming fantasy? Perhaps! There’s plenty here for fans who don’t mind an old-school approach to grinding while exploring heartfelt, albeit cheesy, friendships. Those who don’t get on with anime tropes, though, might find it exhaustingly written and repetitive.
Nebulous: Fleet Command is the hardcore version of Homeworld I didn’t know I wanted
Every “incoming missile” alert in Nebulous: Fleet Command spawns a host of questions, scattering through your brain pan like chaff. The most important of those questions is: “which missiles, exactly?” There are many species of self-propelled ordnance in this dangerously engrossing space sim from Eriadanus Industries – you can design your very own in the fleet editor – and while all are bad news, some are far worse than others.
Sapphire’s excellent RX 7800 XT 16GB Pulse card is down to £480
AMD’s RX 7800 XT is arguably Team Red’s best value graphics card from this generation, offering great performance for 1080p and 1440p gaming with the ability to stretch to 4K in titles that offer FSR 2 upscaling.
Relatively few cards have been available at the launch RRP of £479, but today you can pick up the excellent Sapphire Pulse 16GB model for exactly that much rather than the £519.99 it debuted at. Is that a deal worthy of an RPS deals post? Sure, why not?
