FeatureApps GamesAndroidApp StoreGoogle

Welcome to our second edition of Gaming For Couples! There are many couples with a gaming imbalance — one person loves games, but the other (often a girlfriend or wife) doesn’t. So we’ve created this column to focus on games that two people can enjoy together, fostering a shared sense of interaction and fun. Gaming For Couples picks need to be reasonably priced, made for both girls and guys, and widely available.

Today, we’re looking at three games from the same series: Fireproof Games’ The Room, The Room Pocket, and The Room Two, recipients of numerous best of the year awards. The first two games are actually the same title, formatted for the iPad and iPhone respectively, while The Room Two is a true sequel. It’s a perfect time to play through these games, as they’re currently being discounted below their original $5 asking prices, and The Room Three is expected to be released in Spring 2015.

AmazonMediaFreeDealsGoogle

It’s really, really hard to find anyone who dislikes this album. In fact, I bet that many of you had Bob Marley’s Legend album on CD or even (gasp!) cassette. I’m also willing to bet that tape is now lost and the CD is scratched to holy hell.

Fire up Google Play and you can get a digital copy of it for just $0.99. Top to bottom, this album is killer. But my favorite tracks include No Woman No Cry, Buffalo Soldier, and Redemption song.

Maroon 5 may or may not be your cup of tea, but since you’re reading this site I’m going to assume you’re a cheapskate and appreciate free tunes. Click over to this Kia promo page and simply hit the download button to grab a free copy of “Animals” from Maroon 5’s new album, “V.” Get the rest of the album on iTunes, Amazon, or Google Play.

Amazon Local has one movie ticket from Fandango for $7 (up to $14 value). The credit can be used at over 22,000 Fandango cinemas. The promotional value expires on 11/30, but the paid value never expires.

iTunes is currently offering two different HD movie bundles:

Harry Potter 8-film collection for $49.99:

  • Includes: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part I, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part II.
