Welcome back to a Tuesday filled with hidden treasure. If you’ve been meaning to bulk up your pile of shame without gutting your wallet, now’s a stellar time to do it. Across Switch, Xbox, PlayStation, and PC, today’s crop of digital (and physical) discounts is stacked with bangers. Grab 'em while they're hot and set yourself up for a memorable holiday.
This Day in Gaming 
In retro news, I'm celebrating the 15th birthday of Patapon 3, a PSP great and the highest point of an all-time franchise. Best described as a musical RPG where four-beat patterns and rhythmic button taps produce heroism, Patapon 3's catchy-arse songs still live rent free in my head a decade-and-a-half later.

Nice Savings for Nintendo Switch
Let’s start on Switch, where Burnout Paradise Remastered can drift into your collection at a mere six bucks. I adored it for its seamless open-world carnage, and some bad arse DLC inspired by iconic film cars was the cherry on top. Meanwhile, Mortal Kombat 1 has been leg-swept down to A$21, bringing with it brutal Fatal Blows and a lore reboot that retcons everything.
