Life is Strange however comes to us from Square Enix – but it is certainly one of the best episodic games available today.
In this choice driven adventure, you play as Max, a photography senior who saves her old friend Chloe after discovering she can control time. With the darker side of Arcadia Bay revealing itself from the shadows, it’s up to you to discover the truth of just what happened to one of your fellow students, but your actions can be far reaching and a wrong choice can lead to a devastating future.

Leave – Tour de France 2017 – 60% off – £16.00
Another year and we another game failing to replicate the true Tour de France experience. If you’re a fan of the annual multi-stage race and want to get into the spirit of things once more, we suggest you head back to the highlights.
From the terrible sound to the rehashed visuals, and the same old tedious cycling gameplay that we’ve seen year after year, there are many reasons to avoid picking this up. Not to mention it’s still going to cost you a ton more than some of the other fantastic deals you can grab this week.
Maybe next year the Tour de France game will be worth a look? Or maybe not. History proves the latter is more likely and Tour de France 2017 isn’t great.
