AU Deals: Bargain Floodgates Still Open After the Big Sales Stampede

Somehow we blinked and the so called big sales period has come and gone, yet the bargain bins refuse to take the hint. While Black Friday and Cyber Monday have packed up their circus tents, the storefronts are still wobbling under the weight of tasty discounts. I’m here to help you take full advantage, so let’s stop talking and start saving.

This Day in Gaming 🎂

In retro gamer news, I’m tapping D-F-F-HK to give a Baraka-baked, 29-candle cake to Mortal Kombat Trilogy on PS One. If you used Kano’s heart rip on me right now, you’d see that this compilation holds a very special place in my subcockles. My mate Craig basically had this disc glued to the spindle hub of his PlayStation drive back in ’97.

His house was perched over our local beach, so when the surf was crap, it was a party house that provided a regular dozen or so surfers for “winner plays on” punchfests. And there was a lot to love about MK Trilogy, like a ridiculously huge 37-fighter roster, the Aggressor bar, Brutalities, and the cheese-tastic Motaro. He would get you (physically) beaten up if you selected him.
