Don’t let the nougat in the supermarkets and the lottery tickets everywhere fool you, Halloween, Thanksgiving and the Black Friday-Cyber Monday binomial still separate us from Christmas.So what does that have to do with gaming, you may be wondering. And the truth is that you’re right, since it’s not related, but I just came back from shopping and I need a lot of reinforcement not to fall so soon into the spiral of sugar and calories of nougat and polvorones.
Now, and speaking of sweetening one’s life…. what better than to talk about the games coming this November? In addition, and unlike sweets (Christmas, seasonal or year-round), overdoing it with any of these new games will not compromise your line and operation bikini 2023. Of course, as with everything, the best thing is moderation, because the lack of it can end your social life and make you end up having more dark circles under your eyes than a panda bear.
But well, I’m sure you already knew that and that it has never happened to you, like me, to get a little careless, to extend a game a couple of turns, missions or whatever, to suddenly realize that it’s already dawning. Now, and considering the price of the releases, I remind you that every week we also inform you about the free games and the best offers from the main stores. You can find those weekly summaries on this page and, without going any further, if you check this week’s one, you will see that our colleague J. Pomeyrol has found discounts for no less than eight of the titles that we highlight as October releases..

With fairly manageable technical requirements (remember that it is not exclusive to PlayStation 5, which plays in its favor in this regard, in its most advanced graphics modes will offer us an exceptional opportunity to get into the skin of Spider-Man as we walk around New York.
Pokémon Scarlet and Purple
It seems unbelievable, but the more than expected open world Pokémon is almost here.
