Heads up for Android users but there's a fully functional version of the Crazy Taxi arcade game for free (with a few ads which are skippable) on the Play store right now. I just tested it and it works great!

Snake Pass is currently 40% off in the Nintendo eShop, making it £9.59

Seems like a bit of a deal that, I might give it a whirl :) .

It's...OK...I bought it on release and just found that it wasn't an awful lot of fun. Even when there was bugger all on the Switch, it didn't sustain my interest. I think it looks charming, it's got an interesting control scheme which you definitely get better at - it's all so laborious, though. There's no sense of achievement, for me, but rather an absence of failure if you don't die. It's so slow paced you seldom have any feeling of motion or freedom or skill. All 'in my opinion' and I know Darren played it, too, but I don't think he had much more positive stuff to say about it.

For the money, I'd even say World of Goo is more worthwhile, or save a couple of quid and get a Neo Geo game. Blazing Star is a quality shmup. Oh, Blaster Master Zero is actually pretty cool and more interesting than I initially realised.

Man... I love Blazing Star! I only have the version that comes on the 161-1 MVS cart, and I'm so tempted to get a stand alone copy, regardless of price.

Easily my personal favourite Neo Geo shmup. :D It's good to see it more widely available.

The variety of ships and readiness of power ups is what makes me keep going back to it. Also, this mind bending pitch shift in the first few seconds of the Stage 1 music. It's such a cool sound and seems to say 'this is it'.

I noticed The Room trilogy is listed ahead in Volume Six of the podcast. The trilogy is on sale on Google Play at the moment if you're planning to play along!

Middle Earth: Shadows of Mordor is currently £4.80 on the Xbox One Store for the GOTY edition, and is also free to play this weekend. Bizarrely it doesn't seem to be in any of the deals pages.

Also seconding Dishonored 2 for £`10 in ASDA! Great shout!

There is also a PS4 (500GB) with an additional Dualshock, Wipeout Omega and Overwatch for the same price.

Yes, of course I bought it. My wife will only beat me up a little bit.

Maybe it's often like this, but there are lots of great price drops on PSN for PS3 games:

Demon's Souls €5
Dragons Dogma DA €5
Binary Domain €5
Bayonetta €4
Deadly Premonition €6
Yakuza 4 €6
Okami HD €4

Plus many more (and all the Resident Evil and Metal Gear games as per usual).

No Dead Space 1 though :x

They're good prices for trying out some 'lesser' games that may have been skipped over at the time too. I picked up Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 for a fiver.

The Mass Effect Trilogy is on there for €9.99 today as the Summer Sale has just started. No eye-watering PS4 deals that I can see, though there are some decent reductions.
