As a console gamer, you’re generally stuck paying the full $59.99 list price for most recent releases, but the PC gaming world is remarkably different. On Tuesday this week, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel launched, and already the price is at a cool 22% cheaper with a coupon code.
Astute readers will note that the game is being labeled as a “Mac” title. In reality, the game is a Steam Play title that works on PC, Mac, or Linux. While not all Steam games are Steam Play, The Pre-Sequel is one such title (with a fortunate $15 in savings for computer gamers).
To further enrage console gamers, Shadow of Mordor on PC is down to $36.50. This time GMG launched a slightly better 27% off discount to make the lowest price seen thus far. It’s especially notable since the PC version already starts out $10 cheaper than the console version ($49.99 vs. $59.99), and to add insult to injury, PC gamers get a coupon to stack for additional savings.
