I am a sucker for the holidays, so Post Games is on sale till Sunday night.
$1 gets you all episodes. Videos. Bonus content. No ads. Everything.
(But for real, after this, I need to stop with the sales, because this is a terrible way to make money!)

This Xmas, take @marioprime.bsky.social's advice on buying a used PS2:
