What was that I was saying earlier about dealsposting PC hardware we’ve previously bought? Because I am currently using the LG UltraGear 27GR93U to highlight some savings on the LG UltraGear 27GR93U, a very affordable yet very tidy 4K gaming monitor that I bought for myself back in March. Still for a fair bit more, annoyingly, than you can now get it during Amazon Prime Day.

If RPS is going to wave around Amazon Prime Day recommendations, they might as well be for hardware we’d actually use, and ideally for kit that at least one of us owns ourselves. So it is with the SteelSeries Arctis Gamebuds, true wireless earbuds that have supplanted my Sennheisers as my pocketable sound providers of choice – and are currently 26% off at both Amazons UK and US.

Presumably because it’s so expensive to push Leonardo DiCaprio around in a rented gondola, this year’s Amazon Prime Day has brushed away its final lingering shreds of respect for the singular word "Day," and in fact runs from this morning – July 8th – all the way to July 11th. At this current rate of expansion, it will therefore be just seven short years before the entire solar calendar is engulfed, with even hours being replaced as a unit of measurement by the duration of Lightning Deals. "Want to get an Amazon Fresh Refrigerated Beverage after our deals writing shift, Dave?" "Yeah sure, I clock off in three Lightning Deals’ time."

My small act of civil resistance against this temporally disrespectful future is to uh, have unknowingly booked three of the four days off before Amazon announced the dates. But while I’m here, I’m still on cog-in-machine duty, which is why I’m now informing you that a couple of (actually good) Samsung NVMe SSDs are going cheap. They are. I’m sorry.

It's the day before Amazon Prime Day 2025, and we're already seeing some early deals. Ryzen 5 5500 is a killer budget CPU with 6 cores and 12 threads, which is more than enough for gaming and multitasking. Pair that with the LG 32” curved QHD monitor at 180Hz for under $200 and you're basically upgrading your setup at half price. Toss in a Samsung microSD for storage expansion for your Steamdeck or Rog Ally X, a beefy 4TB Crucial SSD for speed and space, or even the HP Victus laptop with a solid CPU-GPU combo. Here's all of today's epic deals:

Dying Light: The Beast is billed as a return to horror for the undead freerunning series, which took a tumble into Ubisoft icon-farming territory with Dying Light 2: Stay Human. I can’t remember enough about either previous game to make forensic comparisons, but I can say that I spent 15 minutes of my Beast hands-on being chased by what felt like a zombie decathlon team, and it was, on the whole, quite jolly.

I went to an owl sanctuary the other day, it was great. I got stares like this one. Wonderful stuff. The cats of the bird world, they surely are. And now I want more games about (or at least prominently featuring) owls to exist. Where's the owl MOBA, damn you? WHERE?!

In lieu of that, here are the games we're all allegedly clicking on this weekend.

Checked the deals this morning and found some epic picks worth sharing. There’s good value across the board, from fast storage and memory upgrades to dependable gear for your setup. A few of these are steeply discounted and won’t hang around long. If you’ve been thinking about upgrading or just need reliable hardware, now’s a good time to jump in. Let's get into it:

"It felt like a blank slate, just waiting to be experimented with," MadAborModding tells me.

The modder, who’s currently working on expanding an impressive proof of concept for Fallout 4-style house building into a full-blown Cyrodiilic settlement system, says that Oblivion Remastered’s behind-the-scenes differences to other Bethesda games are what drew him to it. "With so much of the game now running on Unreal Engine," he explains, "I saw an opportunity to approach modding from an entirely new angle."

Room 17 of the British Museum contains an entire tomb - a two-thousand-year-old burial site framed by featureless lavenderbox walls, like an asset conjured up in a video game editor. Known as the "Nereid Monument" for the presence of sea nymphs among the pillars, it is thought to have been constructed for the Xanthian ruler Arbinas in what is now Türkiye, and appears in the Museum care of the 19th century British archaeologist Charles Fellows, who, in the Museum's words, "brought many antiquities back to England with the full permission of the Ottoman Turkish authorities". Modern-day Turkish repatriation organisations dispute this framing, naturally, and are campaigning for the monument's return to the lands on which it once stood.

Today’s gaming deals are stacked, I'm so hyped. We’ve got premium laptops with decent discounts, curved OLED monitors, and high-refresh powerhouses, all with serious price cuts. A couple of these are big hitters from HP and ASUS with RTX 5080 GPUs inside, while the LG and Samsung monitors are flying under $800 thanks to that JULYFINDS coupon on eBay (don’t forget to apply it at checkout).
