SALES & "SALES"/DEALS

Humble Winter Sale has big discounts on GTA 5, Destiny 2, Prey and more
http://www.pcgamer.com/humble-winter-sale-has-big-discounts-on-gta-5-destiny-2-prey-and-more/
The Humble Store has kicked off its annual winter sale today, so if your funds haven't been depleted by the holiday period (not to mention all the other sales) you might want to check it out. All the usual suspects are there, but GTA 5 is going for a neat 50 percent off ($37.49). If you're one of the dozen or so people who don't yet own that game, that's a pretty good price.

>>That 50% deal on GTA V isn't that impressive, but some of the other deals aren't bad.

FINAL FANTASY XII THE ZODIAC AGE and DRAGON BALL FighterZ will be both using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech
http://www.dsogaming.com/news/final-fantasy-xii-the-zodiac-age-and-dragon-ball-fighterz-will-be-both-using-the-denuvo-anti-tamper-tech/
FINAL FANTASY XII THE ZODIAC AGE and DRAGON BALL FighterZ are two highly anticipated new releases. And from the looks of it, both of these games will be using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech.
Let’s start with the obvious one, DRAGON BALL FighterZ. Bandai Namco has used the Denuvo anti-tamper tech on all of its latest PC releases, so it does not surprise us that its new fighting game will also be using it. Instead of notifying all Steam users from the get-go, though, the publisher has mentioned the implementation of Denuvo in the game’s EULA and not in its Steam store page. As suggested, DRAGON BALL FighterZ will be using both Denuvo and EasyAntiCheat.
On the other hand, Square Enix has included the implementation of the Denuvo anti-tamper tech in FINAL FANTASY XII THE ZODIAC AGE’s Steam store page. As the publisher states, the game incorporates a 3rd-party DRM, which is no other than the Denuvo Anti-tamper.
