We hope everybody enjoyed their holiday and found plenty of games to pick up during the various holiday sales. Most of those sales have wrapped up with one noteworthy exception. The Epic Holiday Sale is still going for another few days and there are some outstanding games worth picking up there. That includes one of 2023's biggest hits, Alan Wake 2. Those who loved the original shouldn't hesitate to pick it up, and those who are getting into the series for the first time should also know that Epic is throwing in Alan Wake Remastered at no extra charge. Plus, the last free game from the Epic Holiday Sale is Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, which is a fine video game, so be sure to claim that, even if you don't plan on buying anything.

The Steam Winter Sale may be over, but there are a few titles worth checking out this weekend. The Expanse: A Telltale Series is at its lowest price to date. The recently-released Backpack Hero is also discounted this weekend. And for those hockey fans out there, we've sung the praises of Tape to Tape throughout last year, even nominating it for our Best Early Access category. That game is now on sale, so go see what the fuss is about.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
