Title: Humble Bundle: Amnesia, LIMBO, Psychonauts, Superbrothers, Bastion + soundtracks
Post by: desocietas on May 31, 2012, 02:52:25 pm
Woo, people are really excited about this one! Great collection of games if you don't have them already:
http://www.humblebundle.com/
Amnesia: The Dark Descent LIMBO Psychonauts Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP and, for customers who pay more than the average price, the exquisitely crafted action-RPG, Bastion. + the soundtracks!
And to top it off, helps to support some great charities that I'm sure touch close to all gamers/techies: Child's Play and EFF.
Heck, I might rebuy all those games again (have everything except for Amnesia) just for the soundtracks...

I've got Psychonauts for the PS(2) (...as a matter of fact, it's funny in a way because that's the game that I was getting ready to add next :)
...*BUT*...
Not owning a 360 - I've missed-out on Bastion, which, by the way, I've heard nothing but praise for both the game itself & its OST (in particular, some song about "Building" or "Build That Bridge"...or something like that :P which is one of the few songs that I've heard from the game & l really liked the way the song sounded!
The 2 (most recent) 360-exclusives that I've actually *really* wanted to play would probably be Bastion and FEZ...
...so...if you've played them...(please) just lie to me & tell me how horrible they were so I don't go and do something stupid like 'impulse-buying' a 360 just to play a few games :-X

Oooh awesome. I'll take some of that, I already have Limbo on xbla, but none of the others. Plus, I love soundtracks

I've got all of them except for Sword & Sorcery, but I'm still tempted to rebuy them. Problem is, I've got a lot of indie games in my backlog.

Ha, no need to buy a 360 to play these games though... Mac/Windows/Linux compatible, so if your computer can handle it, you don't need to buy yourself another console just to play Bastion.
Bastion's definitely a fun one, but don't go impulse buying for it (like I did for Catherine... got a 360 *and* an HDTV for that one :P).

Since nobody seems to want to answer me, does Psychonauts include both soundtrack albums or not? There's a Soundtrack and there's a Score for that one.
The only game from the set I don't own is Superbrothers. I'll hold off on buying this until later. :\

Good question. The boyf bought the bundle so I'll check his download page to see what soundtracks they're offering for Psychonauts.

My thoughts exactly. I'd give the other games out as gifts, but I'm far too cheap/hate everyone. xD
I'm actually pretty excited about this bundle, though. The past couple indie bundles I ran into were kind of... lame, so I'm glad that there's a nice selection this time. And Bastion's a super awesome game that everyone should play. ;)

I've gotta share this. The VGO (Video Game Orchestra) did this song live at PAX East this year. Although I'd love to find a better version of it, I've still got to share. It's especially awesome after 3:30 in.

I never thought it would be possible to ruin that song. Ugh.
