You may know this as Wario Land: Shake It! Did you know that this is out on Friday? It almost completely passed me by.

Just as Tesco seem to be having trouble keeping their stock in (and have raised their price to £14.97), Zavvi start selling them for just under a pound cheaper than we were used to. Wonderful.

Thanks to Ashcroft for this.

Wow, an incredible deal if you aren't that bothered by hard drive size. There are a bunch of game promotions included too, like Halo 3 or Gears of War for £10 each.

Stranglehold, Xbox 360 - £4.99 delivered

Fairly fun, throwaway action game. Worth a fiver if you are looking for something to play.

Update: Sadly it has sold out now.

Xbox 360 Elite - £229.99

UPDATE: OK, all the different retailers are dropping their prices at the moment, and offering different promotions.

I'll wait for the dust to settle and do one big run down of all the best offers, don't buy a 360 in the meantime.

DEFCON + Uplink, PC/MAC/Linux - £4.71

DEFCON + Uplink, PC/MAC/Linux - £4.71

Spend £15 or more for free P&P.

Cracking deal. As you'll no doubt see in today's podcast, I've got a lot of love for Introversion.

This deal is for DEFCON, a game about Global Thermonuclear War. Everybody dies.

Uplink is a hacker game that was too hard for me to play when it first came out (I was 14), but was certainly very interesting.

The Red Star, PS2 - £2.49

The Red Star, PS2 - £2.49 delivered

Buy this game.

It is a Shmup/Beat 'em up. With RPG-light elements.
It is set in civil war torn Neo-Russia
It has magic, and guns, and explosions.
It has references to Zoolander, The Office and Contra.
It is superb.

Xbox 360 Premium (60gb) + Halo 3 or Viva Piñata - £169.97 collect in store

The price drop is now in effect, but this is (so far) the best place to get a premium from, since it comes with either Halo 3 or Viva Piñata for free. Just hit the "special offers" tab, and pick which ever one you want. You could also get it delivered for an extra £5.95.

SavyGamer is proud to announce the launch of a new partnership

You might have noticed a new link up there on the top right, here's what's going on:

Long version:
On Thursday the 14th of August, GamesRadar, the general games site for Future Publications, announced that they would be shutting down the GamesRadar UK forums, and politely requested that every sod off to the USA GamesRadar forums.

The community of the GamesRadar forum rejected that, and from the ashes of GamesRadar has risen a new independent forum. GRcade.

This new forum is not directly connected to any main site, it is just a forum for people who love "Games + Stuff". There is no corporate backing, and the only reason it exists is because the old GamesRadar community wanted to stick together.

Now, to ensure that there was a constant flow of new members to keep the community alive, it was decided that they would tie to other sites with links to the GamesRadar community, and so arose the idea for "Official Partner sites", one of which is SavyGamer (the other two are D+PAD and Press Start Online). The idea is that I link to them, and they link back to me, hence the banner for SavyGamer on GRcade.

However, I want to take that idea even further.

I'd love for you guys to register at GRcade, and I will be exploring loads of different ways for the community here and there to interact with each other. I'll be linking to threads in GRcade when it's relevant, and if there's any interest, I'll be offering opportunity for GRcade forumers to contribute to SavyGamer in a range of ways. If you do register, maybe put something in your sig mentioning that you've come from SavyGamer so that people know where you've come from.

Short Version:
Awesome new forum! Check it out!


Boring legal stuff:
There is a great mod team, but SavyGamer is in no way responsible for the content of GRcade. Opinions represented in GRcade don't necessarily represent those of SavyGamer.
