    One is an RTS game and is, therefore, automatically horrible.
    Two more are strange platformers that looks alright.
    The last one is a block matching puzzle game that is automatically horrible for crime of not being Tetris Attack.
    The other two cost more an a buck, so who cares about them, right?

    Edit: I'm being facetious, btw. I'm sure all these games are great.

    Humble no longer sells bonus games depending on the average bundle purchase. They've been setting a minimum price now, and that really, really bothers me.

    I don't see a problem with it, really. The average has always been between $4 and $6, with $5 being the normal price. Jumping the gun straight to $5 seems like cutting out the middle man.

    Humble Bundle 9

    Trine 2 The Complete Story. Played it on PS3, bored after the first stage. Pretty, but boring as hell.
    Mark of the Ninja
    Eets Munchies Beta
    Brutal Legend

    Pay the average for

    Fez
    Faster than Light

    No interest in any of the games in the first half of the bundle, but I've heard great things about Fez and Faster than Light so I paid the minimum.

    I never sat down with my PSN+ copy of Trine 2, mostly because it looked like a pain to play. This version apparently comes with both DLC packs or something. I saw Mark of the Ninja in action on a Backloggery stream, didn't look like something I'd enjoy. Already have two copies of Brutal Legend (PS3 and Steam), FTL is meh and Fez is boring.

    I only wasted $3.60 then so not much of a loss. Rarely does a new Humble Bundle come out so I'm never really paying out much.

    Hopefully the games that are added to the average next week are good.
