Best Black Friday UK deals
Black Friday may have started out as an American phenomenon – with shops opening as early as 4am to take advantage of the first shopping day after Thanksgiving – but it's a well and truly international affair now. The result is some of the greatest deals of the year – even Apple does a sale. We'll be serving up the top buys here – some have started already – and will be updating all day Friday.
Steam
With 75 per cent off titles like Rage (£3.24) and Fallout 3 (£3.74), and 50 per cent off the likes of The Walking Dead and The Star Wars Collection – this is definitely worth a look in. There's even 25 per cent off Dishonored.
XCOM: Enemy Unknown at 33 per cent off (from £29.99, to £20.09)
Darksiders II at 66 per cent off (from £34.99, to £11.89)
