Gamezebo Presents: The Retro Nintendo Gamer Bundle
By Jim Squires
If you're in your early thirties like I am, there's a pretty good chance your passion for gaming started with three little letters: NES. Back in 1985 the Nintendo Entertainment System ushered in a new era for home video games, establishing formulas that game designers still look to nearly 30 years later.Don't you wish you could still play those games the way they were meant to be played?While Gamezebo hasn't perfected a time machine, and we're not quite technical enough to repair the busted old NES that's hiding in your closet, we are prepared to give you the next best thing: the RetroN Gaming System.RetroN can play all of your original NES games, and you can snag one right now (with two controllers) for just $18.99. And there's free shipping, so when we say $18.99, we mean $18.99. Not enough for you? You can bundle it together with two games of your choosing for $39, or bundle it with two games, a third controller (this one looks like the classic), and a light gun for $59!More details - and your chance to buy - can be found at deals.gamezebo.com.Free Games and Sales: Devil’s Attorney, Scribblenauts Unlimited and more!

I don't think a lot of you who read these weekly gaming sales roundups can fully understand the extent of how difficult it is for me to type them up from week to week without just buying every single one of them I come across. Seriously, it takes a whole lot of willpower, which unfortunately I don't have all that often. But hey, at least I'm getting a bunch of great games for only a minor dent in my constantly-draining wallet!Because after all, we've got two enormous Humble Bundles that are just too enticing to pass up, countless iOS games that just had their prices slashed, and massively good deals on entire publisher's catalogues. And not only that, but even Gamezebo is hosting a few awesome gaming deals right now (hey, is there such a thing as an employee discount on an already absurdly good deal? Just thought I'd ask)."And if I happened to miss any other great gaming deals that are out there this week, be sure to let me know in the replies, and I'll probably go and buy them too without a moment's hesitation. Okay, I might have a problem…Broken Sword 5: The Serpent’s Curse is coming in December
By Joe Jasko
Revolution Software has announced today that the highly anticipated fifth installment in their popular series of point-and-click adventure games, Broken Sword 5: The Serpent's Curse, is headed our way soon. Taking core adventure gameplay mechanics, but painting everything up in a beautiful high-definition upgrade to the much-revered art style that fans all know and love, the upcoming sequel is currently slated for release on December 4, 2013.In the game, players will follow the tale of George Stobbart and Nico Collard, a lawyer and journalist, respectively, as the two are suddenly thrown into an exhilarating investigation together after a curious painting gets stolen from a lavish art gallery in Paris. What starts out as an innocent chase quickly escalates into a race against time across all of Europe, with shadowy figures and a dark conspiracy waiting around every bend."But this time around, the adventure is so big that it's not all going to fit inside a single game: so Revolution Software has decided to split it up into two different episodes, in another first for the Broken Sword series. Therefore, players can expect to get Episode 1 of the game on the initial release date of December 4, 2013, with Episode 2 to follow shortly after in January 2014. Both episodes will be launching on PC and Mac first ($14.99 for each episode individually or $24.99 when bundled together), with iOS and Android versions not too far behind each respective episode launch.If it comes in 3’s, you can bet it’s a trend!

Lots of news in the social casino and online gaming space this week. No, it is still illegal to gamble online in the US. Though, there are so many land-based casinos opening up in American cities these days, it soon will not matter. Seriously, who knew there were so many Native American reservations to plop down a Vegas-style casino in the US?But, I digress.First off, Betable raised a new round of $18.5 million to support its goal of enabling any developer to add real-cash gambling to their games. So far, Betable only enables online gaming in the UK only, but they are well positioned for when online gaming is finally made legal in the US.The Banner Saga gets a release date and new trailer
By Joe Jasko
The Banner Saga from Stoic Games has been high on our radar here at Gamezebo ever since we first caught wind of the Viking-themed turn-based strategy game way back in the beginning of 2012, so to have a release date finally set in place is more than a little exciting. Today we can officially confirm that The Banner Saga will be available on January 14, 2014. Players can also pre-order the game on Steam starting sometime in the next month or so, to make sure they're all prepared for the big day.To commemorate this news, Stoic Games has also unleashed a brand new announcement trailer, which shows off those fluid 2D visuals and animations that we've all been drooling over for the past few years now. The new announcement trailer also reminds players that the gods are dead, that they must face their foes alone, and that they might not even survive their harrowing journey. Vikings man, I'll tell ya: pretty intense dudes right there.But seriously, how awesome does this game look? January can't come soon enough! And if you need something to help you pass the time until those first few snowflakes start to fall, then feel free to peruse Gamezebo's vast array of literature on The Banner Saga, including our initial game preview, and two in-depth interviews with the folks at Stoic Games.This Week in China: Kids Spend the Darndest Things
By Jim Squires
This week in China, we learn that some problems are universal - like kids spending an absurd amount of money through in-app purchases. We also see how some developers are working with companies to customize games, get a glimpse of an upcoming mobile racer, and finally hear the word "Foxconn" in a context that has nothing to do with Apple. Probably.As always, this week's Chinese news is brought to Gamezebo courtesy of our friends in Beijing at Laohu.com. If you're looking for a more regular glimpse of gaming life in China (and happen to speak the lingo), be sure to check them out!Call of Duty 4 for $5
By Jim Squires
Money's tight. We get it. With Christmas on the horizon - not to mention a fat Thanksgiving turkey, a winter heating bill, and a new snow shovel - "disposable income" isn't a phrase that's in your vocabulary right now. Which is a shame, because you really wanted to pick up a copy of Call of Duty: Ghosts this week.We can't help you there - but if you want a taste of CoD fun without a big price tag, Gamezebo Deals is offering Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare on to PC and Mac gamers on Steam for just $4.99! That's a savings of 75%.Enough jibber-jabber. Get to downloading already.What’s next from Sesame Street?
By Rob Rich
Sesame Street has been a staple of children's television for 44 years. That's a ridiculously long time for a television show to exist, and it's made all the more impressive considering how much the medium (and how we view it) has changed since 1969. I'm not just talking about HDTV here; websites, video games, eBooks, and mobile apps have become so synonymous with our shows that it's border-line symbiotic. Heck, it is symbiotic.A rather large number of children these days, some as young as two or three, are already familiar with smartphones and tablets. The folks at Sesame Street know this, and have been steadily extending their reach into the digital realm with a number of apps and games - some of which were recently shown to the media at the Sesame Workshop's Digital Playground in New York.They have an extensive selection of over 160 eBooks, apps designed to help families dealing with difficult times, and of course apps to help with learning. Nestled among the many, many examples being shown were three rather intriguing recent, upcoming, and even experimental titles: Sesame Street Family Play, Big Bird's Words, and Sesame Street Go.
