OK so you have to use Origin, but Dead Space, Burnou Paradise: The Crysis 2 Maximum Edition, Mirror's Edge, Dead Space 3, Medal of Honor, Battlefield 3 and The Sims 3 for less than a fiver make is well, well worth it.

Go buy now.

It's a shame most of the good stuff is on Origin. Also baffled why they didn't offer Steam codes for The Sims 3 stuff, since it's all available there too...

DeSelby83

wonder will they ad another game or 2 like the last humble bundle

Not The Real Scarecrow

any word on what the next unlocked games will be?Some smart dude figured it out last bundle on the first day but haven't read anything yet. Reckon we'll probably see dead space 2 and some bf3 dlc or more sims ****e.

ShadowHearth

It's several of the biggest games of recent times for basically nothing, a couple still worth a good ten or twenty euro each. And every cent earned is going to charity.

I think the lack of Steam codes is a fairly acceptable compromise...

It's an EA supported pack, they were never going to push Steam over Origin as a result.

Break down of the keys

Dead Space 3 (Origin Key)
Crysis 2 Maximum Edition (Origin Key and Steam Key)
Dead Space (Origin Key and Steam Key)
Burnout Paradise The Ultimate Box (Origin Key and Steam Key)
Mirror's Edge (Origin Key and Steam Key)
Medal of Honor (2010) (Origin Key and Steam Key)
If you pay more than the average?

The Sims 3 + Starter Pack (Origin Key)
Battlefield 3 (Origin Key)

cherryghost

Also the Steam and Origin keys are seperate keys so you essentially get two copies of the Steam ones

They did for games that are on Steam too.

Can you share the extras?

The value on that is insane. Hoping to sucker people into after-purchase transactions, perhaps.

I think you're being a bit unfair. The money is going to charity, they absolutely did not need to do that.

With Dead Space 1, the complete Burnout Paradise pack and Mirrors Edge?

COYVB

origin being painfully slow for anyone else?

Dave_The_Sheep

Hah, perhaps I am - and it's great that the initial moneys go to charity.

There's a lot of stuff in there that doesn't have microtransactions, that's true.

I'm a cynical f*cker though. I'd never believe a company that big would do it for completely altruistic reasons, and I can only see microtransactions\other DLC as their "this is how it'll work for us" thinking.

I still went ahead and got it though, so I'll park my reservations and simply go with the "great value" reply.

They probably never expected to be this popular! :pac:

It's a tax write off for them

It seems like you've misunderstood the point of the Humble Bundle.

Yeah, it won't let me redeem my games at all on Origin. Steam works fine.

Great offer thanks OP just after getting it.Probably a newbie question I never heard of Origin before if I'm honest just wondering is there any issues with it before I download it?

Personally no but the Origin servers are under heavy load right now, some people cannot activate the games.

ionapaul

Sweet - just grabbed it. Insane value, was so close to getting Battlefield 3 on Amazon for $9.99 so many times!

I'd bet this is exactly how popular they were hoping it would be.
Great way to drive traffic to Origin.

Hadn't used it in so long I'd forgotten I had an account!
I'll definitely have a look around the store while I wait for my games to download.
Won't necessarily buy anything today but I might consider more in the future now it's fresh in my mind - I'm sure many other people will feel the same.

EA gives AAA titles away for practically free

Everything goes to charity

5 of the 8 games can be activated on their competitors platform


"they must be up to something evil"

Geez, it is painfully slow alright though!

Ah here, I never said evil. Just that they wouldn't be doing it if they weren't expecting to make money somehow. I think the same of all large companies, not just EA and not just in games. I don't blame them for wanting to make money by the way, it's what they're in business for after all.

siochain

I'm going to get flamed for this.

Are these streamed games?
if yes could two people play Battlefield 3 from different PC's with the same license?
