It's appropriate that President’s Day comes right after Valentine’s Day because there’s nothing we love more than democracy. To celebrate this most sacred of holidays, we’ve collected some games and literature to deliver some of that piping hot liber-tea directly into your veins.
Helldivers 2 is all about freedom, liberty, and putting the “friend” back in friendly fire. If you’re not opposed to a little blue-on-blue co-op action, you can join the Helldivers to hold back the tide of disgusting aliens and mindless robots to protect the democratic utopia of Super Earth.
If you’re ready to join the fight to bring managed democracy to a chaotic galaxy, you can pick up a copy of Helldivers 2 from Amazon, Walmart, or directly from the PlayStation Store for $39.99.

Cyberpunk 2077 and its amazing expansion Phantom Liberty not only envision a future unfettered by socialism but entrust you with safeguarding freedom’s most precious asset, the President of the United States. If you haven’t had a chance to visit CD Projekt Red’s excellent world of capitalism run amok, you can currently pick up Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition from Steam for just $51 (was $89.99). The Ultimate Edition includes the base game and its expansion along with a handful of in-game cosmetics.

Are you a bad enough dude to protect the President’s daughter? Step into the boots of agent Leon S. Kennedy and fight off hordes of zombies in the excellent remaster of the third-person survival shooter Resident Evil 4. The remake modernizes virtually every aspect of the 2005 classic with more fluid controls, sharper graphics, and tighter gunplay than the original. Whether you’re experiencing this title for the first time, or returning to the foggy hills of Spain, you can currently pick up a copy from Steam or Fanatical for around $40.

Being a great ruler in Sid Meier’s Civilization 6 requires a loose understanding of nuclear arms treaties and explaining to Congress that you were willing to go to war over a single fish tile.

The Platinum Edition includes the base game, as well as six new civilization and scenario DLC packs to add to the base game: “Vikings,” “Poland,” “Australia,” “Persia and Macedon,” “Nubia,” and “Khmer and Indonesia,” along with the excellent expansions Rise and Fall and Gathering Storm.

Thank your own personal deity—possibly the titular Dragon's Dogma 2 dragon—it's Friday! This morning, I should like to turn your attention to a sale of some old EA-owned gold that's made its way to Steam for the first time. Chief among them for me is The Saboteur, basically a WWII GTA set in Paris. I'm also all about the dirt cheap tsunami of Command & Conquer games, too.
The latest update for Marvel's Spider-Man 2 promised a lot of long-awaited features, but I don't think anybody, including the developers at Insomniac, expected it to include a full debug menu loaded with goofy, game-breaking features and some apparent details about the game's DLC plans.

Addressing the Helldivers 2 meta while leaning into the game's winking fascist veneer, CEO Johan Pilestedt of developer Arrowhead Game Studios advised veterans to treat new players kindly by showering them in heavy armaments, not fascism.

Thankfully, our collection of the best SSD deals will help you add more SSD real estate without breaking the bank. There are hundreds of SSDs out there, but we’ll be focusing on products that are good performers, reliable, and not too expensive.
