This week's best deals: GeForce 1080, PS4 Pro, gaming monitors and more
Plus, Humble's Spring Sale now live.
One more week into May, one more week of questionable British weather - and whether you've had more of the fickle patches of sunshine or the random torrential downpours, at the very least we are one week closer to being able to play all those fancy new video games like Red Dead Redemption 2, Vampyr and, um, Dark Souls Remastered, I suppose.
Nevertheless, as usual, there's another weekly list of the best deals from around the internet right here for your perusal. It's got games in it, it's got tech in it, it's got lots of lovely things. Let's have a look, shall we?
As usual, we've got deals that'll work in the UK, deals that'll work in the US and some deals that will work in both the UK and US, as well as presumably many other places. Let's get started.
UK & US Deals
It's time for another sale over at the Humble Store! This time, it's the ever-so-timely Spring Sale that is the reason for thousands of discounts. This one is due to end on May 24th, so you have a little bit of time to peruse at your leisure. You'll find everything from No Man's Sky to Dark Souls 3 in this range.
On top of all the sale madness, for a very limited time, you can pick up a copy of The Flame In The Flood absolutely free.

Just writing about this collection of Capcom's run of 2D Disney games from the 90s has immediately lodged the Ducktales theme song in my head, where it will likely remain for at least a month. With that in mind, the Disney Afternoon Collection is currently discounted to $8 on Xbox One and is absolutely worth that price for the Ducktales game alone.
