Prime Day Xbox deals start from just $14 — here's the 13 best savings I've found today
Amazon Prime Day always brings with it plenty of epic gaming deals, and that includes big savings across a range of Xbox items from must-play games to essential accessories (and often, even savings on Xbox consoles themselves). I'm not seeing any hardware deals yet, but there's still time, and meanwhile, if you already own an Xbox console, you can now score fantastic games starting from just $14. Or upgrade your setup with deep discounts on accessories from the official Xbox controller to premium wireless headsets. Below, I'm picking out the best Xbox deals you can score for Prime Day 2025. And be sure to check back often, as I'll be keeping this roundup regularly updated as more deals go live across the three-day online sales event. One of the best-selling sports games around for very good reason, NBA 2K25 is packed with teams and modes and looks staggeringly good on the Xbox Series X (but it's still a looker on Series S). This latest version of the popular basketball sim has dropped to $14 for Amazon Prime Day 2025, so now is the time to get on the court. One of the most acclaimed and influential games of all time, Resident Evil 4 has been reborn in this full-scale remake. You play Leon S. Kennedy on a mission to rescue the President's kidnapped daughter in a spooky European village overrun with gruesome enemies. Featuring modernized gameplay and overhauled visuals, this is Resident Evil 4 as you've never seen it before. One of 2023's most pleasant surprises, Avatar Frontiers of Pandora doesn't switch up the Ubisoft open-world formula seen in games like Assassin's Creed and Far Cry. But the alien setting of Pandora makes everything feel brand new, and it's one of the most visually impressive games on Xbox. Even if you're not enamored with the Avatar movies, you might be surprised by this one. The long-awaited return of the Armored Core series didn't disappoint. Fires of Rubicon is an exhilarating experience that brings the beloved mech combat game into the modern day. Build your hulking mechanical titan, and then square off against wave after wave of dangerous foes, but be warned, your mech may look unbreakable but the enemy combatants in Armored Core VI put up a real fight. This can be a tough game. STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl is a first-person shooter set in a post-apocalyptic Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. Players control Skif, a scavenger navigating a landscape filled with mutants, faction conflicts, and paranormal events. The game features resource management and a branching narrative, with player choices impacting survival and exploration in an open-world environment. A collaboration between developer FromSoftware, the creators of Dark Souls, and acclaimed fantasy author George R. R. Martin, Elden Ring is a stunning open-world action RPG where every victory is hard-fought. You'll die frequently, but the sense of satisfaction that comes after downing a hulking boss after dozens of defeats is practically unmatched in all of gaming. Now is the ideal time to jump into Elden Ring as its Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is now also available to purchase. In Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, players control Space Marine Titus, battling Tyranid swarms using melee and ranged combat in a cinematic campaign. Then you can jump online in either co-op or competitive multiplayer to earn the best gear in this Gear of War-inspired shooter. Alan Wake 2 is a sequel more than 10 years in the making. This time you play as the eponymous writer and a new character, Saga Anderson, an FBI agent investigating a grisly murder. Boasting a cinematic story and survival horror gameplay, Alan Wake 2 is a unique trip into a surreal nightmare. This Deluxe Edition includes both DLC expansions and a digital copy of Alan Wake Remastered. The 14th major installment in the AC franchise, Assassin's Creed: Shadows, is set in 16th-century Japan during the late Sengoku period. Players experience the enduring conflict between the Assassin Brotherhood and the Templar Order through two protagonists: Naoe, a skilled female shinobi, and Yasuke, an African samurai inspired by a real-life historical figure. Versatile, comfortable, and responsive, the Xbox Core Wireless Controller impressed us in our rigorous testing. This isn't just for Xbox — it's compatible with PC, Android, and iOS devices too. With its ergonomic design, textured grips, and a button to share screenshots with friends, it's a go-to for gamers everywhere. While the Velocity Green pad is currently cheapest, the Pulse Red hue is also on sale for Amazon Prime Day at $59. The Arctis Nova 5 is one of the finest gaming headsets, and it's the highest-scoring headset we've reviewed. Compatible with PS5, Nintendo Switch, PC, Android, iOS and Meta Quest, its quick-switch 2.4GHz dongle and Bluetooth 5.3 enable you to effortlessly swap between devices. The sound quality is incredible, and the 360° spatial audio makes your gaming experiences even more immersive. Expand your Xbox Series X or Series S's storage quickly and easily with WD_Black's 1TB Expansion Card. Because your existing 1TB of storage isn't enough, especially with game sizes the way they are. This "plug and play" storage solution just slots into the Xbox storage expansion port found on the back of the console, and you're ready to game on. While we've seen this fall as low as $99 in the past, this is still a solid discount on a useful accessory. The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 is one of the most versatile gaming headsets around. Between its USB-C connector, USB-A adapter and Bluetooth connectivity, it can easily hook up to any modern PC and most modern consoles — or all modern consoles, if you get the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7x variant, which can accommodate the Xbox's idiosyncratic wireless protocol. The design is sleek and the sound quality is pretty good.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander says Thunder still has ‘much work' to do vs. Pacers
The post Shai Gilgeous-Alexander says Thunder still has 'much work' to do vs. Pacers appeared first on ClutchPoints. INDIANAPOLIS — With his team's back against the ropes in an uphill battle, Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander put the team on his back and crossed the finish line of a gritty Game 4 win against the Indiana Pacers. Gilgeous-Alexander's clutch performance led the Thunder to even the NBA Finals' best-of-7 series, 2-2. Erasing a 10-point deficit, the Thunder pulled ahead in the final minutes of the fourth quarter, when Shai went to work. Advertisement With the pressure of heading back to Oklahoma City for Game 5, potentially trailing the Pacers, 3-1, Gilgeous-Alexander kept the Thunder's season alive, scoring 15 of his 35 points in the last five minutes of the fourth quarter. Oklahoma City beat Indiana 111-104. The Thunder are two wins away from a title, heading back to the Paycom Center. Still, Gilgeous-Alexander knows the job is far from finished, despite being this close, and heading home for Game 5. 'Not so much relief. Personally, I much rather win than lose,' Gilgeous-Alexander said. 'I still feel like we have so much work to do. We're halfway there, obviously, but still so far from the finish line. I'm so focused on the next opportunity, and try to take advantage of that.' Gilgeous-Alexander also finished with three rebounds, three steals, and one block. The Thunder Mark Daigneault praises Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for Thunder win Kyle Terada-Imagn Images Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault was impressed by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who nearly outscored the Pacers single-handedly in the fourth quarter (17-15) as his 15 points pushed his team to even the NBA Finals, 2-2. Advertisement After the win, Daigneault reacted to the significance of Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder's approach down the stretch in the final frame. 'He's unreal, obviously. Really closed that thing offensively. He and Dub did a great job there, just execution-wise. The shot-making. He was outstanding,' Daigneault said. 'That was an uphill game against a great team. This is one of the best teams in the league in the last couple of months, since the All-Star break, and they're a hard team to beat here. They're a hard team to beat, period, obviously. I just thought we gutted it out on a night where we really didn't have a lot going, especially offensively.' After Thunder veteran Alex Caruso, who finished with five steals, Lu Dort, and Jalen Williams made defensive stops that led to timely buckets, it set the stage for Gilgeous-Alexander to go off on a game-winning run to close out a must-win Game 4.

DeMar DeRozan reveals Thunder's secret to success
The post DeMar DeRozan reveals Thunder's secret to success appeared first on ClutchPoints. DeMar DeRozan revealed what he believes is the key to the Oklahoma City Thunder's success. On Friday, the Western Conference champions rallied to pick up a critical Game 4 win over the Indiana Pacers. Like Game 4 against the Denver Nuggets in the second round, the Thunder had their backs up against the wall and responded by outscoring Indiana 31-17 in the fourth quarter. Advertisement The six-time All-Star, however, pointed to OKC's culture as the reason this team is two wins away from a title. In particular, DeRozan discussed in a recent interview with Dwyane Wade when he realized that the Thunder was composed of a championship-level locker room. 'What's great about OKC is the connection that they have. You see it. Every game they win, the whole team is behind whoever's getting interviewed. That goes a long way. I watch them offensively, defensively, how connected they are, it's incredible. It all starts from not just on the court, but off the court. That little interview? I don't think people realize how important that is. Everybody be standing there behind no matter who's getting interviewed the whole year. Everybody's staying there. And then they walk off together. That shows, to me, everything about them.' Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the charge for the fourth-quarter rally with 15 of his 35 points in the last 12 minutes. In addition, Alex Caruso picked a great game to have one of his best performances of the playoffs with 20 points and five critical steals. Despite going just 3/16 from three-point range, the Thunder stayed in this game with the Pacers and walked down one of the best clutch-time teams in recent playoff history. Now that OKC knows it can win a close game against Indiana, this result should do loads for the team's confidence. Advertisement The Thunder will return home for Game 5 in front of what will be a rocking Paycom Center. The NBA Finals will ultimately come down to a best-of-three series between two franchises with loads of depth on their roster. Legacies will be decided over the next week, and either the Oklahoma City Thunder or the Indiana Pacers are going to win their first NBA title. It's time for OKC's energetic culture to be put to the ultimate test.

Thunder vs. Pacers Game 6 Results according to NBA 2K25
The post Thunder vs. Pacers Game 6 Results according to NBA 2K25 appeared first on ClutchPoints. We've got the Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Indiana Pacers NBA Finals Game 6 results according to NBA 2K25 to see who the game thinks will win. Currently, the Thunder have a 3-2 lead in the series. Advertisement OKC is just one victory away from winning the NBA Finals. But while Tyrese Haliburton may not be 100%, Indiana will do everything they can to keep the series alive. For now, we're just interested in seeing what NBA 2K25 thinks will happen. Who wins Thunder vs. Pacers NBA Finals Game 6 according to NBA 2K25? According to our NBA 2K25 simulation, the Oklahoma City Thunder will defeat the Indiana Pacers 103-90 in Game 6 of the NBA Finals. In this low-scoring affair, both teams were pretty neck and neck after the first two quarters. The Pacers managed to take the lead at halftime but lost it not long into the third quarter. From there, OKC maintained their lead, ensuring them a win in Game 6. And because of that, they're now newly crowned NBA Champions. TEAM Quarter 1 Quarter 2 Quarter 3 Quarter 4 FINAL OKC 30 16 25 32 103 IND 25 23 24 18 90 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 31 points in the game as he likely also wins NBA Finals MVP. While he did turn the ball over five times, he also had three steals in the win. While the rest of the team wasn't as explosive, five other players scored at least 10 points or more. Overall, everyone did their part in helping the Thunder win the NBA Finals. Advertisement Despite injury concerns, Tyrese Haliburton somehow dropped more than 40 points in the loss. Most of his points came off a hot start. But like the rest of the Pacers' offense, he too slowed down in the end. Overall, the Pacers only scored 18 points in the final 12 minutes, allowing OKC to extend their lead. Both teams turned the ball over too much in this game. Perhaps the pressure on the virtual players caused them to play worse. Jokes aside, neither team actually scored much off turnovers, with the Thunder leading with 13 points. The Thunder also converted more field goals, three-pointers, and free throws as they dominated in every category. Despite Indiana leading in time of possession, they were beat in almost every category tonight. While they earned more rebounds, they made little of the opportunities they had. The game was still close until the very end. With 1:49 left, the Thunder only had a seven-point lead. But after SGA converted four straight free throws, they had a nine-point lead with just 50 seconds remaining. From there, OKC had an easy time of ending this series on the road. Advertisement Additionally, check out some of the game stats from our Thunder vs. Pacers Game 4 results: Thunder STAT Pacers 39/76 (51%) Field Goals 34/77 (44%) 11/26 (42%) Three Pointers 10/26 (38%) 14/18 (78%) Free Throws 12/15 (80%) 7 Offensive Rebounds 11 35 Defensive Rebounds 34 11 Steals 8 1 Blocks 2 11 (13) Turnovers (Points Off) 14 (11) 8 Team Fouls 10 13 Biggest Lead 7 22:12 Time of Possession 25:46 With the win, the Thunder win their second championship as a franchise and their first since relocating to OKC. For the last decade or so, Thunder fans have seen numerous stars come and go. But despite all the talent, they were never able to win it all. But now, they can finally sit back and enjoy a long-deserved title. Meanwhile, the Pacers' season comes to a heartbreaking end. They miss out on a chance to win their first NBA Finals and now head to the offseason. Despite upsetting the Cavaliers and beating the Knicks, Indiana's efforts were just short of winning it all. We'll see what they can do during the offseason to try and come back to this stage. Depending on the real results of Game 6, this may be the last game of the 2024-2025 NBA Season. But should the Pacers win Game 6, then there will be one final game at the Paycom center in OKC. Any game now could be the last. Regardless, we look forward to seeing the final results this week.
