Spendthrift gamers know you should never pay more than AU$40 for a blockbuster videogame. The PlayStation Store usually has hundreds of steeply discounted games ranging blockbuster through indie, and while it may be tempting to lay down anywhere between AU$100 and AU$125 for a shiny new AAA, it's hard to avoid buyer's remorse when the inevitable 50% discount rolls around a couple months later.
Those who wait are being well-rewarded during this year's Amazon Prime Day, which features lots of great PS5 games for a fraction of their launch prices. I've listed some that I'm tempted to fork out for below, but I've only listed those under AU$40 because, you know, that's my personal limit (unless it's a new FromSoft or Yakuza game).
To make the most of these deals (ie, in most cases, to avoid shipping costs) you'll need to be an Amazon Prime member. Easy done: free trials are available here. Oh, you've already used your trial? Start a burner email. Don't pay for the subscription; this is not a drill!
Without further ado, my picks for the best PS5 game bargains under AU$40:
