Weekend PC Game Deals is where the hottest gaming deals from all over the internet are gathered into one place, every week, for your consumption. So kick back, relax, and hold on to your wallets.

In Humble Store"s own words, its new Humble Classics Return Bundle is filled with "direct sequels," and "some spiritual successors" to popular old school games. As usual, the games on offer are split into three tiers, let"s have a look at each one below.

Putting down just $1 will get you a great selection of adventure games, which include Shadowrun Returns, Shadowrun: Dragonfall - Director"s Cut, Tesla Effect: A Tex Murphy Adventure (plus soundtrack), and Broken Sword 5 - The Serpent"s Curse.

If you opt for beating the average price, currently just under $9, in addition to all the previous games you will get Shadowrun: Hong Kong - Extended Edition to complete the set, as well as Wasteland 2: Director"s Cut - Standard Edition (and soundtrack), Xenonauts, and Age of Wonders III.

The $15 final tier includes all previous tiers as well as copies of Torment: Tides of Numenera and Dreamfall Chapters: The Final Cut Edition.

Also, don"t forget to check out this month"s Humble Monthly Bundle before it ends next week, which offers Dark Souls III, its Ashes of Ariandel DLC, and Overgrowth as early unlocks.

Fanatical has brought back its BundleFest promotion for another run, with the store revealing new and returning bundles of games every day until February 26. Although there are more bundles on offer than we can detail here, let"s have a look at some highlights.

The tinyBuild Party Bundle costs $4.99 and gets you copies of Mr.Shifty, SpeedRunners, The Final Station, Punch Club - Deluxe Edition, Party Hard, and seven more games. The Batman Bundle is another interesting collection you might want in your Steam library. With the exception of Arkham Knight, this bundle has every single game as well as their DLC from the Arkham series for $9.99.
