THQ goes under -> games go poof from Steam?

Also, does this also work with EU people?

You might not be able to buy them depending on what happens to them, but you will always be able to redownload them if they're in your account.

 

[Hesemonni]

I guess I'm outta excuses then!

Thanks GAF!

If you want the games, you pay for the games. If you want to give to charity, give to charity. If you want the games and give to charity you give money to both. But to want the games and value it as $0 would be an insult imo. If you just wanted to give to charity, there's nothing stopping you from giving them money directly instead of having to use humblebundle to do it.

There's an "All To Charity" button directly on the page.

Humble Bundle is directly encouraging this practice by having a big button there, listed even before "All To Developers".

 

[Shorty11857]

anyone use google payment got their key yet?

Still haven't got mine

 

[Bururian]

Do you like Starcraft? Starcraft 2? CoH will make you hate it just by the sheer amount of awesome it is.


Fuck, caught using literally wrong. Damn youuuuuu.

To put it in a way, people are fine with THQ dying as long as CoH2 comes out before they shut down.

One of the best RTS games ever.

It is amazing.It looks ok even today and it plays really great.

I will take this as a massive endorsement for the game. I wanted to drop some regular price on the games and not be a cheap skate like I have been with some other bundles.

I got mine pretty much instantly.

Surprised THQ isn't one of the charities listed.

lol

This x100000. Use it if you guys want the games but don't wanna give to THQ.

 

[Shalashaska161]

Is any DLC for Saint's Row 3 included? Still this is kind of funny talk about desperation act's by THQ.

 

[Dacvak]

What does this mean for the South Park game? Are they still making that?

 

[Toki767]

No DLC. Just the base game.

I know very well they allow this. But some of the people doing this in this very thread and on twitter are certainly not doing this because they love charity, but do this specifically to make some point against THQ.

 

[Beelzeboss]

No way any of the DLC is included. That's how THQ will make money off of this.

 

[statham]

$400,000 already.

They are going to sell alot of DLC for saint's row.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

Payment services keep going under, lol

 

[Griffin]

What does this mean for the South Park game? Are they still making that?

THQ is only the publisher. Quite sure any other publisher would love to publish SP.

 

[feel]

Have all I want, bought a BTA bundle to gift a friend and support THQ ("all to THQ" on the split). This is sad.

 

[Corto]

In my opinion though this might seem, and I'm sure it is indeed considering THQ reality, a desperate move, it's a very laudable move from THQ nonetheless. They will be going under but while they were going the way of the dodo they still contributed to charity.

 

[Leonsito]

In the split, THQ and Charity should go together.

 

[D-e-f-]

So the SR3 Code should now work in Germany... can anyone confirm if it is uncut?

Nope, mine still doesn't work.

I contacted (Humble Bundle) support, they asked for my transaction id and are looking into it.

 

[Tenki]

wow, this is desperate. Buying it, btw.

 

[inm8num2]

Hopefully this bundle helps out THQ's financial problems.

 

[TheSeks]

Also, I'll give AAA games as much schtick as any other gaffer, but I am sick of this "us or them" mentality indies have. I would be more forgiving of it if this were EA or ATVI but this is THQ for crying out loud; a publisher on it's last legs who at least did try to make games that were different in the AAA marketplace.

You and me both, even if it was EA or ATVI the bundle stipulations means they don't get 100% of profit if people don't want them to. Indies taking offense since this is a "big name publisher" are missing the point of the bundle: Pay what you want to whoever you want.

And frankly, that "us or them" mentality is exactly why I refuse to try or buy Indie games. Maybe when Indies stop thinking their shit doesn't stink I'll give them the time of day.

dont even own a gaming pc right now and im buying it

Where did you get that information?

 

[statham]

thats good cheap advertisement for hotline miami

 

[Bentendo]

Welp, THQ can absolutely forget about me ever buying a full price game from them. I genuinely enjoy their games but I can't justify a $60 purchase knowing how low the price will drop.

 

[Lanbeast]

Amazon payment went through but no code yet, qq.

 

[Toki767]

It's not like they have any new games coming out in the foreseeable future.

 

[YianGaruga]

Same can be said about almost any PC game nowadays.

 

[dark_inferno]

Where did you get that information?

Someone wrote that on twitter... but it seems like it was a fault from somebody.

We're Sorry

Rest assured, we're working to resolve the problem as soon as possible.

Please try your operation later. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Come on, Amazon. Google payments are jacked up too.

THQ probably won't be around long enough to release another $60 game.

 

[Azih]

Man, Saints Row the third will be mine when I get home I guess.

Man.

I think I'll be putting 100% of the money towards THQ on this one.

 

[Prophet Steve]

Amazon payment went through but no code yet, qq.

Yeah, I think that is for a lot of people, but if I go to my account I see the bundle there and you can get the keys that way.

 

[Carl]

Wonder if THQ have ever made this much money in one day before?

 

[Dead Prince]

Still haven't got mine

I got mine pretty much instantly.

hm. i even used the key resend. and that doesn't work. even for old stuff.

 

[dragonelite]

Man gave 90% to THQ they need it more then charity.
Most of the time its a 70% for charity and 20% for dev 10% for humble bumble team.

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

Craziness. I paid $4 just for Darksiders a month ago just to have it on Steam (I already played it on console when it came out).

 

[Deleted member 80556]

Good to have played you, Darksiders.

 

[Azih]

Would you guys donate to a Kickstarter to feed THQ employee families?

 

[Wuthering_Heights]

Good to have played you, Darksiders.

Sigh.

I so wanted a Darksiders game featuring Wrath.

Would you guys donate to a Kickstarter to feed THQ employee families?

Depends. Are we talking beans and rice or actual meat and vegetables?

 

[Future PhaZe]

100% of my payment went to THQ

Sad to see them in this state with such great products.

 

[Visualante2]

List of PC Humble Bundle games that were not self published
- Penumbra series (Paradox Interactive)* may be the retail release only
- Hammerfight (Kranx Productions and 1C)
- Shank (Electronic Arts)
- Bastion (Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment)
- Vessel (indiepub)
- Zen Bound 2 (Chillingo Ltd, Secret Exit)

This isn't definitive because I just scanned Wikipedia for PC versions, often the Linux version was a different publisher or may be referencing a retail release. Feel free to correct me if you know that the Humble Bundle funded the developer directly or a game is missing.

e. Thank you Stump.

 

[EternalGamer]

I already own all of these games but I bought a couple of bundles anyway to give to friends.

I consider this bundle "Operation Save THQ: An Awesome Company."

 

[HK-47]

Wow at the indie dev bitching on twitter. Go blow it out your ass, you self entitled dicks.

 

[YianGaruga]

Are the people not recieving their keys/mails on gmail?

 

[Toki767]

Would you guys donate to a Kickstarter to feed THQ employee families?

No, but if THQ dies and Volition starts a Kickstarter for Saints Row 4, I'd probably donate.

 

[TrumanBurbank]

I like that Neogaf is chanting Deshi Bashara for THQ.
