Game Getter's giving away the King Arthur Collection on Steam: *snipped* - I think you've just gotta share the link with friends once you've signed up.

They're also doing a giveaway on Modern Warfare 3: *snipped* - But that one's a competition; it seems only the top 5 sharers get that one.

Nice try, but I don't think referral links are allowed here ;)

*sigh* Sorry, I didn't know. They never used to resort to cheap tactics like that before. Should have guessed it with big games like that; usually the only games on there are small-fry indie titles.

I can get on my brother's account to trade Just Cause 2 for Portal 2 for him.

NOTE: For some reason it's saying he can't actually trade it until January 22, even though he's had his account for years. I'll gift it first, then you gift (or trade, either way) Portal 2 to the account. Only want people who are trustworthy (read: people who are reputable in the Neowin community).

It's sad. I've been looking at the sales every day for the past week, and yet nothing is interesting. None of the games being given discounts (that I do not have already or plan on playing on a console) are either good enough or worth the money (even after the discount).

I was hoping to at least get a few games this during this sale. :/

Not much in today's deals, except for all the Worms games being 75% off. :)

Oh yeah, and Rock of Ages is now ?1.74. Coming from someone who pre-ordered it when it was just over ?6, I cannot recommend this game enough! It's hard to explain it properly, but it's just so fun to play, and it's crammed full of Monty Python-style humour. It's also got online modes too, plus a Skeeball-style game mode. :)

Yup, I'm thinking about getting Worms: Reloaded.

I got that a while ago, thanks to Green Man Gaming, so I'm getting everything but that. :p Totals up to just over a tenner.

Oh, and a little warning for anyone considering Test Drive Unlimited 2, it was cheaper in a previous daily deal (I think it was ?3.74), so I wouldn't recommend getting it now.

I have a coupon for Sol Survivor (full game, not discount) that I'll trade for Freedom Force, if you're interested. Steam name is Zanaffer

If you haven't traded it yet, would you fancy trading Sol Survivor for a piece of coal and a 50% off Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee voucher? :)

    • Amazon Prime Day slashes Samsung's newest Galaxy Watch Ultra by 45 percent by Karthik Mudaliar Samsung’s flagship Android smartwatch has received one of its steepest Prime Day cuts. Amazon has dropped the 2025 Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra in Titanium Blue to $357.24, saving buyers around $292 from its $649.99 list price. That's a 45 percent discount (purchase link below). The 47mm Galaxy Watch Ultra uses a titanium casing and a 1.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 480 x 480 and peak brightness of 3,000 nits. It includes LTE connectivity, Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi, NFC, and dual-frequency L1+L5 GPS for more accurate outdoor route tracking. The 2025 model has 64GB of storage, a 590mAh battery, sapphire crystal glass, 10ATM water resistance, IP68 protection, and MIL-STD-810H durability testing. Its health and fitness tools include heart rate monitoring, sleep coaching, Energy Score, Running Coach, body composition analysis, temperature sensing, and ECG support, where available. This model is best suited to Android users who regularly run, hike, cycle, or train outdoors and want cellular access without carrying a phone. The larger battery, rugged construction, bright display, and dedicated Quick Button also make it a stronger option than Samsung’s regular Galaxy Watch models for extended workouts and demanding environments.

    • Google begins rolling out its post-Epic Play Store billing model next week by Karthik Mudaliar Google has confirmed that its redesigned Play Store billing and fee structure will take effect on June 30, 2026, in the United States, the United Kingdom, and the European Economic Area. The changes will let eligible developers offer their own payment systems or send users to an external website for purchases, while separating Google’s platform service fee from the cost of using Google Play Billing. The rollout puts concrete dates and detailed rate cards behind the broader Android policy overhaul Google announced in March. That announcement followed a proposed settlement with Epic Games intended to resolve their long-running disputes over app distribution and payments, although the U.S. portion of the agreement still requires court approval. Under the new billing choice program, developers selling digital content or services can display an alternative payment option alongside Google Play Billing. They may also direct users to their own websites to complete a purchase. Developers can use Google’s standard payment-choice screen or design one that complies with the company’s user-interface rules. Choosing another payment processor does not eliminate Google’s cut altogether. The company will continue charging a service fee for transactions associated with apps distributed through Google Play, regardless of whether payment is handled by Google, an alternative provider, or a developer’s website. Google argues that this fee covers the value and infrastructure provided by Android and the Play Store. For developers earning up to $1 million annually, the service fee will generally be 10 percent. That rate also applies to auto-renewing subscriptions. When Google Play Billing is used in the U.S., U.K., or EEA, Google will add a separate 5 percent billing fee, and developers processing payments elsewhere will not pay that additional charge. This means Google’s familiar flat 30 percent commission is disappearing, but developers will not necessarily see a dramatic reduction on every transaction. An in-app purchase from an existing user processed through Google Play Billing can still reach a combined 30 percent. The biggest savings are likely to come from subscriptions, smaller developers covered by the $1 million tier, and companies able to move customers to their own payment infrastructure. Google is also offering lower rates through its Apps Experience and revamped Games Level Up programs. Apps and games that satisfy the company’s requirements can qualify for 15 percent service fees on new-install transactions and 20 percent on existing-install transactions. The criteria include performance and reliability standards, support for additional Android device categories, and selected platform features. Those program rates are scheduled to become available in the initial markets and Australia on September 30. For consumers, the immediate effect will depend on whether developers adopt alternative payments and pass any savings on through lower prices. For developers, however, June 30 begins a more flexible but considerably more complicated Play Store economy in which distribution, billing, install dates, revenue thresholds, and program participation can each affect Google’s final cut. Google is also separately developing a Registered App Stores program designed to simplify the installation of qualifying third-party stores. That initiative is expected to arrive with a major Android release later in 2026 and will launch outside the U.S. first. Google says the rest of the world will receive the changes by September 30, 2027, although billing rates for markets outside the US, UK, and EEA have not yet been announced.
