I don't like Super Meat Boy. I eat plenty of meat, and I don't have a problem at all with blood in video games. But there's something about the way a piece of raw (or undercooked) meat leaves a trail of blood on walls that just completely disgusts me. It's like he's a person with all of his skin off.

I am both glad and pretty blown away to see that the Humble Bundle idea is not only viable enough to continue doing it but to increase in frequency with some pretty big names in the indy sector. Great idea and if this continues as it has they will have a solid consistent customer here.

If I buy this, can I download it on two comps (home and work)? Never have bought a humble bundle before but this one is amazing. Played Super Meat Boy on X360 and that is worth the price of admission alone.

Yes, the games are DRM free, you can take the installers and use them whereever you want without restrictions. Plus, you get Steam copies... which do the same.

Totally worth it for Jamestown alone.

Screw Super Meat Boy, Jamestown and Cave Story+ are the real deal.

Very nice. Picked it up. I love how this came out only what, a week or so after the last one?

These have been coming along very often. Enough that I haven't really been paying attention to them. But Cave Story and Meat Boy caught my attention, so this was bought right away.

I already had Super Meat Boy and Jamestown, but bought it for the rest :)

+1

I had most of the games included in the bundle before this, but still, the lineup is unbeatable. Out of the whole bundle, all the games I've played (Super Meat Boy, BIT.TRIP RUNNER, NightSky and Jamestown) are solid.

Usually love the Humbles, but this bundle just wasn't my cup of tea even though I bought it.

Bought it for Bit.Trip Runner and Cave Story+, really have no interest in the other games.

Debating buying this even though I bought the retail release of Super Meat Boy already. I guess I would have to set up my Amazon account even further to use the checkout.

They just added the soundtracks for each game.

I picked this up and am running through Jamestown in between minecraft sessions.

I love it. :D

The graphics looks like something ripped straight from a Neo Geo machine, super detailed and stylish sprites. The setting and story are both pretty awesome and definitely something you would of again seen during the heyday of the Neo Geo. Its both laughable crazy and awesomely creative to set a game during the 1600s age of colonization..except on mars with retro-futuristic tech with the English battling the Spanish-Martian forces for rights to Mars.

I really like SHUMPS but I am not too good at them. I really appreciated how the game let me play on normal until X level, then I had to rank up the difficulty to unlock the rest of the main story mode, which really gradually got me into the more difficult settings and missions without leaving me feeling overwhelmed or frustrated. Overall just a georgous and fun game, definitely worth picking up this bundle for.

I was on the fence because I have games from past bundles but can't seem to get around to playing them all at any real length. After watching the video, I talked myself into it.

Heh, with what time I have for personal stuff (game play, movie watching, surfing) when it comes to gaming my PC has been getting more of my attention than all of my consoles.

Same, although a majority of my game time has been going to WoW.

Anyone who picked this up should give Gratuitous Space Battles a go. It's very fun.

Never got that itch to play WoW. I did my MMORPG stint with Asheron's Call and The Realm before that.

Steam sales have been keeping my attention.

Wow, somebody else used to play The Realm? I did for awhile about ten years ago, I'm betting. If Wikipedia is to believed, the game is still active to this day.

Doesn't surprise me. Hell, Dark Age of Camelot is still running.

I got in on the beta test but didn't play it too much. The computer I had at the time (looking at the Wiki for the date) was my (then) brand-new bride's 486 that I upgraded with a Pentium Overdrive processor (remember those?) and as the game progressed the machine on top of the crappy dial-up I had made the game unplayable. It was neat for the time and I'm glad it's still around in some form.

humble indie bundle... does that mean call of duty games will be included in it?

And has one of the best taglines I've seen in a game...

They just added five games and soundtracks from Humble Indie Bundle 3 to the mix.

Apparently people are purchasing the bundle for .01 and selling the Steam keys.

For example. It also shows four already sold. Fucking douchebags, seriously.

Hopefully they can determine who they are and nullify those transactions.

Just bought this bundle x3. One for myself and 2 that I'm going to gift to my cousin and roommate. :)

You think that's bad? People were buying dozens of bundles for the codes so they could get extra chances to win items in Steam's Holiday contest. Now that is being a total asshat.

12-22-2011, 02:32 PM
wow that fucking sucks.

I'm sure that they could track down which steam codes relate to humble bundle purchases, but I doubt anyone will put in the elbow grease to do so.

I'm surprised that people would have the balls to do this :(

Thankfully, SteamGifts had the foresight to block people putting up current bundles as cheap giveaways, but they always pop up right after a bundle closes. :/

If anyone is still thinking about this, GET IT. Jamestown and Cave Story + alone are amazing.

I don't usually like PC games, but this bundle has some great retro console-ish titles. Bought it just for Super Meat Boy, Jamestown, and Cave Story+.

Thanks!
