The most Astro Bot-fantastic prizes for a Peak Platformer, three AAA freebies with Prime and more!

Thank your own personal deity—possibly Big Brother Bot—it’s Friday! Today is all about Astro Bot, the star of the moment who gets plenty of 10/10s to enjoy a bragging “94” on Metacritic. As someone who’s already 100% committed, I can confidently say that paying $89 instead of $110 is a wise investment you won’t regret.

In retro news: I’m baking a giant 22-piece birthday cannoli for MafiaSet in the fictional city of Lost Heaven in the 1930s, this (literal) OG on PC wowed me at launch with its intricate crime drama, similar to GTA III-style action and hilariously deformable cars. Better yet, Tommy Angelo’s final scene—a cab driver who accidentally gets initiated into “myah, see” gangsterism—is one of the most unforgettable jumps in gaming. This classy-as-hell remake is an offer you can’t refuse.

Not too long ago I was wondering if this would dip below the $200 sweet spot. Today it’s down to $180. Good news if you’re a patient type who loves space exploration and cool watches to wear.
