**Update 5/26/15: These deals are now old, but you can check out this week’s video game deals here.
The weekend is upon, and it’s time to dig into some games you’ve been wanting to play but may have missed. With The Witcher 3 still a few weeks away, now is the perfect time to catch up on your video game backlog by catching some great video game deals this weekend. Our hobby can be quite expensive, so if you’re like me, you pick games you’ll wait to buy on sale later so that you can afford other games right when they release.
So without further ado, here are four great video game deals going on this weekend:
1. Far Cry 4 (Xbox One) $29.99
The Xbox One version of one of last year’s biggest games, Far Cry 4, is available for just $29.99 on Amazon this weekend. For some reason, it’s just the Xbox One version, as the PS4 or PC titles will cost you $39.99.

2. ‘Grand Theft Auto V’ (PC Version) $44.40
