Weekend PC download deals: April Fools Edition

To seemingly help ease the sting of April Fools Day earlier this week, retailers are going nuts this weekend, offering discounts on LEGO games, EA games, and many more.

April Fools Day is (thankfully) behind us, but it would take some real fools not to notice that retailers seem to be going out of their way for some dynamite deals this weekend. Steam and the Humble Store are competing over who has the better LEGO deal. Origin's sale is outdoing Amazon in every way, except for one notable exception. Amazon has the first major discount on Battlefield Hardline. Meanwhile, GamersGate is celebrating Assassin's Creed, while Get Games and GameStop are offering a slew of great recent releases. Check out the full deals below.

Here's our selection of this weekend's PC deals:

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
