Gaming deals of the week: 5.23.14


Starting of the weekend with a gaming purchase could set the tone for a stellar few days off. For those looking to do just that, we've compiled a smattering of gadgets on the other side of the break to fill the void. Hand-held, laptop, console and headset options are all there, so a range of shopping sensibilities should be adequately catered to.


If there are other gaming purchases that you're after that we haven't included here -- join us and add them to your "Want" list. Every time there's a price cut in the future, you'll get an email alert!


Razer Blade (2013)



Price: $1,499

Regular Price: $1,999

Engadget Score: 84

Buy: Amazon


Last year's 14-inch Razer Blade is seeing an expected discount now that the 2014 model has broken from cover. Specs remain respectable, and the price tag is now $1,000 less than that shiny new option. This is also the lowest sticker we've seen on the 2013 unit in the past three months.


OUYA Console



Price: $75

Regular Price: $100

Engadget Score: 69

Buy: Amazon


The Android-driven OUYA console is now available for the lowest price we've seen over the last month. While the console hasn't taken quite the gaming hold many thought it would, it still offers an affordable living room option for the frugal.


Nintendo 2DS



Price: $120

Regular Price: $130

Engadget Global Score: 80

Buy: Dell


The Nintendo faithful that haven't yet splurged for last fall's handheld may find this $10 discount tempting enough to take the leap. The 2DS was available for a mere $99 as recently as last month, so those who can hold their horses may be in for more savings.


Mad Catz F.R.E.Q.5 Headset



Price: $42.65

Regular Price: $150

Engadget Global Score: 81

Buy: Amazon


The F.R.E.Q.5 made its debut just over a year ago, and now the PC and Mac headset is offered up with a $100 price drop. Of course, when you're not playing that RPG or FPS, the cans double as a rather flashy-looking pair of headphones for mobile music streaming.
