Let’s be realistic: buying launch games today is too expensive. The price of Triple A titles has skyrocketed, and there are few games that we can find cheap since their launch. But this does not mean that we cannot find great games on sale. There are many titles that, without causing much of a stir, manage to hook their players for a reduced price. After all, the triple A category is not synonymous with absolute quality. And it is for this reason that we have decided to make this article today.
Faced with rising prices, What better than to take a look at the titles with reduced price? Although it is true that many cheap games do not exactly shine for their quality, there are others that stand out for good.

Higher price does not mean higher quality, and that is why we are going to review 10 great games that you can find in the eShop for less than 20 dollars.
