XMNR: The PS Vita gets a little love from retailers this week as two are offering a $50 gift card with the purchase of the handheld and this does include the bundles. There are also some deals on PS Vita games including discounts on Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time and Soul Sacrifice at Best Buy plus a buy 2, get 1 free sale at Target.
The other systems and games are not left out though as the Xbox 360 Kinect bundle gets a $50 discount, Borderlands 2 is discounted to $29.99 and LEGO City Undercover has $10 knocked off its regular price among other deals.
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.
Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.
Thats a great value... to bad I'm a broke -_-
PLEASE stop pushing through an article that ALREADY EXISTS ON THIS SITE.
ESPECIALLY FROM EXAMINER. A very crap website, riddled with endless ads and popups.
This had already been posted.
N4G really needs some sort of filtering method. It's things like these article copies that are ruining N4G.

Could be the sign of a price drop, get it with this deal then price match the drop price post E3. Could make this real hot.
LoL - The Vita.
Even Sony admits it will be irrelevant next year with a forecast of about or less than 4 million consoles sold.
Retailers try to get it off the shelves for PS4 / Xbox One now.
Also same on Amazon now.
I disagree with you DiRtY though. I think it will be very relevant in the future with its great compatibility with the PS4.
