9 Of The Best Steam Winter Sale Games For $20 Or Less


The Steam Winter Sale rages on, with big discounts on hundreds of games. It runs through January 3, so time is running out for anyone who wants to save a bundle of cash on some of the best PC games of recent years. If you don't want to put a dent in your cashflow in this post-holiday period, that's wholly understandable. To help you find some of the best games available for an affordable price, we've scanned through the Steam Winter Sale and selected some of the top titles. Read on for the goods.

If you don't find something you want, plenty of other sales are live this week as well. GOG is having a winter sale of its own right now, and it's giving away certain games for little or nothing. Also, if you'd like to spend even less, check out our picks for the best games in the Steam sale under $10. Now on with the show.


1. Borderlands: The Handsome Collection


Borderlands 3 is likely to come out eventually, and you'll want to know what's happening on the Wild West-like planet of Pandora. This collection of multiplayer loot shooters comes with Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, plus the copious amounts of DLC that came out for both games. All that for $15 is a fantastic deal.


2. Celeste


Death isn't so much a setback in Celeste as it is a learning experience. With forgiving checkpoints, exquisite level design, and drum-tight controls, Celeste will keep you coming back for more, no matter how many times you let its lovable heroine die.


3. Grand Theft Auto V


Grand Theft Auto V is one of the best-selling games of all time. But if you don't have it, now's a great time to buy it. That's because it's available at a historically cheap price ($15) and it comes with a meaty campaign, plus a sprawling digital city that acts as your playground for criminal activity, motor races, and general mayhem.


4. The Witcher 3: Game of the Year Edition


The Witcher 3 is an astonishingly large, carefully constructed action-RPG that's infused with Eastern European folklore. The only real problem is that you might not want to leave its gritty fantasy world once you enter it. But with the sheer amount of content in the core game and two expansions that come in this package, you won't have to leave it for hundreds of hours.


5. Dead Cells


Great controls and an wide array of builds make every run through this Metroidvania-style game thrilling. It doesn't hurt that each attempt is different, thanks to procedurally generated levels and randomized item distribution.


6. Assassin's Creed Origins


Ancient Egypt is a living, breathing world in last year's installment of this long-running series. Now go out into that flourishing civilization and kill some bad guys.


7. Danganronpa 1 + 2


A cackling animatronic bear traps a group of teens and makes them murder each other in hopes of getting out alive in this delightfully twisted game collection. It's also filled with memorable characters and unforgettable plot twists that will all but guarantee you'll want to pick up the third installment.


8. Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice


Senua is a Celtic warrior who's haunted by the bloody battles she's seen. Your job is to get her through a vision quest that involves fighting powerful enemies, solving puzzles, and confronting the demons in her head as she descends into Viking Hell.


9. Overcooked 2


Playing Overcooked 2 will show you who your friends really are. It might sound simple to work together to assemble meals as orders come in, but when the dirty dishes pile up and skillets start catching on fire, only the coolest heads will prevail.

MediEvil Review - Bones 'n Brawn

As a remaster of the 1998 puzzle-platformer of the same name, MediEvil holds up reasonably well. Its cartoonishly charming characters and varied, if relatively simplistic, level design both stands the test of time and looks better than ever thanks to a complete graphical overhaul. But as much as MediEvil can feel like a warm blanket of nostalgia--especially for those of us who played the game 21 years ago--it also feels incredibly dated, with jittery controls and camera issues that regularly get in the way of progress. You play as Sir Daniel Fortesque, a dead knight who is returned to life when the sorcerer Zarok makes an unexpected return to Gallowmere, bringing with him hordes of monsters. Fortesque remains every bit as charming a character as he was; his gnarled teeth, warbly voice, and single, rolling eyeball lose none of their charisma in the remastering process. Zarok's design hasn't aged well, though, and the new visuals leave him looking like a plastic doll who’s been

After Pitching Dragon Age Musical DLC, David Gaider Is Finally Getting To Make His Musical Game

Dragon Age lead franchise writer David Gaider is making a new and intriguing-looking musical adventure game Chorus . As it turns out, the veteran game developer--who left BioWare years ago--has been thinking about making a musical game for a long time. In an appearance at the GameSpot Theatre today at PAX Aus about his new game and studio, Gaider said he in fact pitched musical DLC for Dragon Age during his time at BioWare. The musical Dragon Age DLC could have taken place inside the metaphysical Dragon Age realm called The Fade, he said. It was a semi-serious, semi-joking pitch, Gaider said, but whatever the case, it never happened. Gaider is now getting to realize that dream. His new game, Chorus, is a musical adventure game where they big story beats play out through song. Gaider is working on Chorus with Summerfall managing director Liam Esler (former Obsidian, Beamdog developer), while prolific voice actress Laura Bailey (Uncharted, Gears of War) is voicing the main character.
