I always buy these when they are released. It is a neat idea where you buy a few indie games but set the price for the bundle. You can also choose to give all the money to charity if you so choose. Anywho, be generous

VVVVV is an awesome game. Gives me a SNES/NES feel. Challenging yet simple

VVVVVV alone is worth $10.

Neat to see the top donations. I only knew a few names, but good on those guys for giving back even just a little bit acknowledging where they themselves came from.

Also, you can link it to steam if you have an account. Yeah, I really like the idea behind the humble bundles and always purchase them when they are released.

They added "Steel Storm," an awesome top-down shooter, to the bundle today. This game rules!

Hey, that's a pretty good bundle, thanks for the tip

Steam has been a pretty good place for me to find these smaller games. It's nice to have a selection of games available that don't take as much commitment as many of the big budget games.

Yeah, it is nice to be able to hop in game for an hour or so and actually accomplish something, and it is nice to have a centralized games library that is accessible globally.

I would also recommend checking out Team Fortress 2, by far my favorite multiplayer game, that I originally bought as part of the orange pack. It is now free-to-play as well, so you can check it out at no cost

Totally agree, as someone who doesn't have a whole lot of time to get really involved in games... all the complexity of full-fledged big studio-produced games is impressive, but for my purposes, give me something to blow off steam for a half an hour here and there and I'm happy.

Bumping because another game has been added to the humble bundle now, no extra purchase required if you have already purchased the bundle. If you have not, it is a great way to get some neat games and help indie developers and charities

Also, I think you will get five more games (the humble bundle 2) if you donate more than the average.

Happy Gaming

Wow, adding the entire Humble Bundle #2 as an incentive makes this bundle a no brainer now.
