My pick for Deal of the Week is 50% off for Defiance at Nuuvem! Nuuvem is a Brazilian retailer and the site is in Portuguese so I recommend using Google Translate. The game itself is the English version. This is my pick of the week because this is the cheapest price for Defiance by far. Most prices for the game range from 20-30% off.
Defiance itself is an excellent MMO shooter. It suffered from a buggy release, but Trion World has been busy patching the game. Defiance the game ties in with Defiance the show on the SyFy network. So far the tie ins have involved simpler activities like finding lore related tape decks scattered across the world, but a new contest that will put the winner’s avatar on the show is currently running. The show has recently been signed for a second season. Be sure to read our full review of Defiance.
