Current Bundles

randomname2005

Was looking at some of the bundles posted recently in the bargain thread:
http://www.indieroyale.com/
http://www.bundlestars.com/
http://www.indiegala.com/
http://groupees.com/bma

While I know these are cheap (and can be used to support good causes) I have too many games in by backlog to go out and buy a ton of games if they are never going to be played. Has anyone bought any of these bundles? If so, which one(s) and are the games worth getting?

Thanks

I got the groupees, one which I think is ridiculous good value. Works out at about 3.50 euro for all the games.Party of Sin and Two Worlds 2 would set you back about 35 quid alone.When I see things like that , the Jew Hoarder in me takes over and I just end up buying regardless if they're good games.

Thanks. I have bought a few based on value alone before (HumbleBundles in particular) but feel like I will never get around to playing them until windows12 by which time backwards compatibility will be long gone.

Just to point out Meatwad is referring to this groupees bundle http://groupees.com/bma while there is a different one listed in the OP.

Got that one for Sin but I've only played Major Mayhem so far (so damn addicting for "just one one more run"!)

I look at gameplay of each game on YouTube. I can usually tell which ones I will enjoy and ones I know I will never play. I install the ones I will play and copy the keys of the other games to a word document to trade/give away.

The games aren't usually that long and wouldn't take more than a week to complete. Last week was unmechanical, finished it in one go in less than 3 hours.

Never thought about checking them out on youtube. Thanks.
