Welcome back to another week of the finest savings on the video games that matter. Today's all about sticking the boot into FC 25's RRP, and scoring a PlayStation 5 Slim console for the cheapest price I've seen in a while. If nothing else, that offer certainly surpasses the exorbitant eBay scalper prices for a 30th Anniversary edition one. Still pretty annoyed that I missed out on that...
In retro news, I'm celebrating the 23rd birthday of Pokémon Crystal, an 'upper' version of Pokémon Gold and Silver that got slapped into the coolest sparkly-see-through cartridge Game Boy Color ever got. I played the connector pins off of this at launch and appreciated a bunch of new features, like greater avatar customisation, refreshed Pokemon sprites with introductory battle animations (!!!), and the debut of Battle Tower. The latter was basically a boss rush against seven level 100 trainers in a row. Why did I put myself through that hell? To win five Protein drinks (read: Poké-'roids). Worth it.
