Wow, I've never had so many replies in such a short time. Surely this has to be a record of sorts? Or maybe it was just an incredibly stupid question. :D

Thanks, guys!

Crossposting for visibility: I'm looking for someone to buy me the bundle in exchange for a 6$ gog please, anyone?

Great bundle. If only for Rochard and Vessel which I don't have. Silly that they would put the weakest game as average unlock.

It's not my day. First I missed this and then when I see how it works I misunderstood the meaning behind your total amount so I paid 10$ instead of 5$ something. A lesson learned I guess.
That's sort of subjective don't you think? Personally, I would have preferred they let Torchligtht be the unlock but I suspect, considering it Runic Games has a publisher, they would have lost a lot of money people trying to avoid paying the average then plus I bet it's the game in this bundle that most people already have.

HiB is in such a position that they can simply pick & chose what games they want in their bundle. And obviously they are picking the ones that they think will sell best, the very high profile indie(ish) titles that everyone of. And those are mainly the actiony games. I was surprised to see Shatter in there, but the other games were quite predictable, everyone who knows how HiB works could probably have guessed that these titles would find their way into a HiB. If not this one, then probably the next one.

And this is why I find Royale to be more interesting. I've still bought this HiB (Vessel looks quite fun), but I was not introduced to any new & interesting games.

Paid above the average just so I can have a Linux version of Torchlight to play on my netbook. Only game I didn't have is Rochard, but it looks cool.

Of course it is. Although looking at Metacritic it seems to have a worst score of all those game. Not that it is any proper metric to even consider.
Dustforce looks and sounds good, but sadly it is not fun at all. I bought it day one and was very disappointed. Thought it was going to be something Super Meat Boy, but no. Not even close. Wouldn't even call it a full game.
/rant over (-:

Oh boy - I already have Rochard, Shatter, SPAZ, Tochlight and Vessel. Well, it's probably worth it just for Dustforce - I've wanted to try that for some time.

Looking for someone that has an extra Dustforce key, PM me, maybe we can make a deal or something.

Yes, I knew that most of those games will end up in HIB, although I thought they will add Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet, and did not expect Shatter.

And I know they can choose what they want, but I imagine that some people could be interested in more variety in selected games.

I agree with you, but I guess its, in the end, just business. And yes, I also expected Insanely twisted shadow planet to be in this one. I'm almost entirely certain that it will be in a HiB at some points though.

I only have Shatter in this one. Lucky me. I'll never have to run Steam to run it ever again.

I think the reason it sells so well IS the high-profile indie action games.

But yeah, in general, I like more variety, though at this price, I usually can't complain.

Awesome! After playing the demo, I almost bought Rochard on PSN several times. I'm glad I didn't now. Great deal!!!

Very nice little game! But it has MS as publisher, which makes it a GfWL game...
