Demon's Souls -- $50, was $70

PlayStation 4 classics such as Bloodborne and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice trace their roots back to 2009's Demon's Souls, which is now in the hands of a new generation of gamers with a remake for the PlayStation 5. The challenging/frustrating level of difficulty that has made "Souls-like" games so popular is retained in the new Demon's Souls, but with additional items, weapons, and armor to switch things up from the original. The enemies are vicious, the environments are unforgiving, and the boss fights are exhausting, so you'll likely see the iconic You Died screen an unpleasant number of times. Finally breaking through is a glorious feeling, though, and that's going to keep you hooked to Demon's Souls.

Team up abilities in Marvel Rivals

The PlayStation 5 has been out for some time now, and its reception has been mostly positive. It includes lots of quality-of-life improvements over its predecessor, the PlayStation 4, such as faster load times, a solid-state drive (SSD) instead of a regular hard disk drive (HDD), and an improved controller in the form of the new DualSense. However, a console is only as good as the games available on it and, thankfully, the PS5 has you covered on that front as well.

While the machine already has a worthy library of great PS5 games, there are even more to look forward to, with some releasing as soon as this month, while others are still years away. Some will be completely free PS5 games, some will be PS5 exclusives, and others will be completely cross-platform so you can play with friends on Xbox, PC, and Switch.

You can get one of 2024’s best games for $20 during Prime Big Deal Days
Sargon reaches for a feather in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown.

Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days event is going on right now, and as a result, many of 2024's biggest and best video games have been discounted. One discounted game in particular that you won't want to miss out on is Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. This Metroidvania is fantastic, and you can buy it for 60% off at just $20 during Prime Big Deal Days.

Released in January 2024, The Lost Crown revived Ubisoft's long-dormant Prince of Persia game series. It returned to the series' 2D roots, reinterpreting its formula as a vast Metroidvania that players can spend 20+ hours exploring. It follows the story of a new protagonist named Sargon, who's rescuing the titular Prince after a former ally kidnaps him.

The PS5 is finally on sale for Prime Big Deal Days. Now’s the right time to buy it
A PS5 sits on a table with a DualSense standing up next to it.

Despite the fact that we're four years into this current console generation, PS5 discounts have been as slim as its recent redesign. You'll hardly ever find Sony's console for less than its launch day price. Even when the PS5 Pro was announced, Sony opted to keep the base model's price the same. That's finally changed. As part of Amazon's Prime Big Deals Day, the PS5 Digital Edition just got a big price cut. Regularly $450, it's on sale for $400 through most major retailers, but has been bouncing a bit lower (it's currently $395 at the time of writing).

You may be wondering if this is the right moment to buy a PS5. After all, its $700 Pro model is slated to launch next month. I'd argue that this is the exact moment to buy a base model, though.
