Figured this was worth mentioning here, considering the interest others here have shown in the indie game community previously.
The Humble Indie Bundle #2 (pay what you want for five awesome indie games)
It was terribly convenient for flushing out whatever change I had left in my paypal account :D.
Although their hearts are in the right place, this disappoints me for two reasons:-
1. All the good games in this bundle I already have (paid full price for them);
2. The other games are unfinished and strangely "beta" quality. If you think of this as being a showcase for independently-produced games, it doesn't hold up well.
It would tickle me greatly if this behaviour provoked a similar giveaway from mainstream publishers, like EA. How much would you pay for five of theirs? I have a figure in my head that pleases me... ;)
Two cents? Seriously most of the mainstream games this year have been a bit of a let down for me. I've been on Steam picking up titles I missed from years back as well as some games from no-name companies and am enjoying them more than the new releases.Quote:

The only new release I cannot play but am dying to play is Just Cause 2. I have to move to W7 for that and I'm not ready to switch just yet.
Attach some controller to your PC to play it, though. The game isn't keyboard friendly.
