Bought 2 sets. Third THQ bundle pack in one month \o/

 

[kylej]

amazing bundle. SR3 is incredible

 

[Kazuma Kiryu]

jesus, $42,000 already.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

$5.29 average. I feel REALLY ripped off at $5.55 now.

 

[Goldenroad]

I don't own any of those games except SR 3 (on 360) and I don't have a PC that can run any of them, but I'll throw them $1 for the rest of those games I guess, even though I can't play them. Maybe some lucky GAFfer's will have a christmas present incoming.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Wow, that was quick. These Humble peeps are good people.

Got my SR3 key.

 

[The Lamp]

Are there really 13 days left on this? Then I'll wait. I have only a few bucks in my bank account and don't get new money for a few days.

 

[Foffy]

Square-Enix would probably do one. Comprised of Eidos games and The Last Remnant.

You can pay to prevent that one from being included, right?

 

[Hellsing321]

Come on, man. That's like kicking a dog that's dying of cancer.

 

[CrashPrime]

Man, this is kinda depressing.

 

[Castor Krieg]

I live in germany and cant redeem any of them.

I live in Berlin, just did it with no problems. You should've gotten one key anyway.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

amazing bundle. SR3 is incredible

+1

Shots at THQ aside, they aren't dead yet folks. I don't get the people in here thinking this isn't worth the $6.01 for all games. SR3 is amazing, Metro is great, and the rest are solid games. At the very least this preps you for Metro: Last Light.

 

[VeryGooster]

Can I get the SR3 soundtrack without buying the game?

 

[Wario64]

Indie devs must be pissed that this even exists

 

[Durante]

You can pay to prevent that one from being included, right?

Why would you? The PC version is great.

 

[blurrygil]

lol @ the default custom amount: $13.37

 

[dave is ok]

$5.29 average. I feel REALLY ripped off at $5.55 now.

I bought for 5.55 too

Do they do refunds?

 

[zroid]

yikes

 

[Data West]

I already donated 60 dollars to THQ every year when they put out their completely broken wrestling games.

 

[lupinko]

I diverted all the money toward the charitable foundation instead of giving THQ any, is that bad?

 

[D-e-f-]

I live in Berlin, just did it with no problems.

couldn't redeem my Saints Row 3 key either ... haven't tried the other one for the main bundle since I already own them and want to give them away later

SR 3 definitely does not work for me

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

I bought for 5.55 too

Do they do refunds?

Refunding $0.30 cents?

 

[KarmaCow]

I bought for 5.55 too

Do they do refunds?

...seriously? Come on now, it's ~25 cents.

 

[Red Blaster]

What does it do with games you already own? I have CoH, Metro and Saints Row already; do those just don't count?

 

[Toki767]

I already donated 60 dollars to THQ every year when they put out their completely broken wrestling games.

If you waited a month, you would've only had to donate $25.

What does it do with games you already own? I have CoH, Metro and Saints Row already; do those just don't count?

Pretty much just lost.

 

[Chris R]

Three charges but only two emails with keys... Going to give it a few more mins before I contact support :|

 

[Firequake]

All to charity this time

Spoiler

gives all to thq lol

 

[Einbroch]

Refunding $0.30 cents?

...seriously? Come on now, it's ~25 cents.

He's obviously joking.

I hope.

 

[Dead Prince]

actually 3 bundles. asking for a refund on one of it ;x

 

[dark_inferno]

I live in Berlin, just did it with no problems. You should've gotten one key anyway.

Tried it again and the first code has no problem. Saints Row The Third has some problems. I hope they include the uncut version of the game or i want my money back.

 

[LiK]

i owned them all already but i bought a set for the soundtracks. that's worth it.

still waiting for my email with the link since i don't plan on downloading them at work.

 

[vazel]

Hahaha.

I slid the charity and humble tip sliders down to zero. Since I want THQ to get all my money. That's the real charity here.

 

[YianGaruga]

Twitter is blowing up with indie devs being really upset by this bundle.
I don't really see the problem myself, really. This will not affect them at all.

 

[Hybrid897]

Well, definitely bought wanted to pick up metro.

Feels like I'm throwing coins to someone dying on the street though....

 

[MurkyZebra2417]

Got the Bundle, want to activate Saint's Row 3 but can't "because it is not available in my country"..... can you gift the keys??

in, let a friend activate the game for me and then gift it to me?

 

[Interfectum]

indie devs can be annoying as shit.

 

[Someone47]

Do I need to have a PayPal account to use Checkout with PayPal? Anything I should know if I'm buying with euros?

 

[TouchMyBox]

I paid quite a bit above the average in an attempt to make you dicks pay a penny more.

 

[Toki767]

The average is dropping like a brick again. I see $5.23 now

 

[Sentenza]

I diverted all the money toward the charitable foundation instead of giving THQ any, is that bad?

Yes, and it's childish to brag about it too.
But I guess you don't care as you are clearly sure to come out as hilarious.

 

[inky]

So the added value game will be Homefront, most likely.

 

[Durante]

Well, definitely bought wanted to pick up metro.

Feels like I'm throwing coins to someone dying on the street though....

It has that feeling in a way.

It's even made worth by that dying person offering you all his riches (as they are) in return.

 

[Wario64]

$5.23

Humble THQ Bundle threatens to ruin the brand's reputation

Since its successful debut back in 2010, the Humble Bundle has built a reputation for combining little-known independent games with a popular pay-what-you-want model and platform-agnostic, DRM-free downloads.

The company's latest bundle, a partnership with major publisher THQ, could ruin that reputation in one stroke by abandoning some of the core principles that made the Humble Bundle so refreshingly different two years ago.

While past Humble Bundles have prided themselves on offering their games as DRM-free downloads for Windows, Mac, or Linux, though, the THQ bundle breaks precedent by providing games only as Steam-activated Windows downloads.

 

[Eusis]

Indie devs must be pissed that this even exists

They're probably happier they get more money spent on them though.

Threw $6 down. Honestly, I mainly just wanted CoH without being tied to GameFly after the fiasco with games not carrying over due to not sorting out license arrangements or because the rating's AO... then pulling NWN2 after they DID put it up for download. Yeah, don't want that to happen in a worst case scenario with Company of Heroes, especially before I even seriously play it.

to be fair THQ is about to an indie dev real soon

Yeah that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. This is very much a Humble Bundle, so what if it is coming from one of the few publishers who has taken some goddamn risks lately?

 

[marrec]

BTA Went up!

 

[Castor Krieg]

Tried it again and the first code has no problem. Saints Row The Third has some problems. I hope they include the uncut version of the game or i want my money back.

Maybe that is causing the trouble? Try FlyVPN and activate SR3 via US proxy?
