    Pretty decent bundle, if only for the fact I've already got Satellite Reign and The Red Solstice. Thankfully we're getting something other than shmups and survival games.

    So I didn't take a closer look at the early unlock for next month, according to a lot of folks this "Starter pack" is pretty much a glorified demo that locks a whole bunch of content behind a pay wall.

    I've just unsubscribed.

    Canceled it.

    This months games does not even make it wiggle down there. Usually title game is best for next week and as we know its just crappy demo. The two first month were really best, after that it just really meh.

    Why not try trade them for cheaper games off your wishlist in the Steam Sale? That's what I've been doing. Often times, people are looking to get those games in the sale anyway, so you can possibly save them some money, and get something you actually want in return. Win win for all. ;)

    Hmm, this'll the third month in a row where I haven't been interested in the headline game in the bundle but previously the rest of the games included have either been ones on my wishlist or a pleasant surprise once I've given them a bash. Kind of torn now...

    Cheers for advice. I know I could trade it even on boards.ie, but kind of could not be arsed with whole steam group setting up and all. :)
    Did you got that rocket league after all? I still have it not used. It can be your if you want.

    Gizmo: if there is something on thisknths bundle you want say it. I'll try give it to you when I get a breather from work. I don't really have much interest in any of those games. Well, maybe in that hurt world. I might keep it.

    Ah, you don't need to setup the steam gifts thing, you can go to the Gaming Freebies and Trades thread.

    Sorry m8, I don't want to sound like asshole, but I only offered that to two particular posters, because I know them on boards.ie for years and I would have no issues giving it to them or someone else, who I know here for years and had good banter, argue or just who was great help over years here.
    As I said, no offence, but your name does not ring bells for me.

    Thanks for info m8.

    I sow you looking for it earlier, but I always would forget to offer or just to busy to reply as I usually browse boards.ie while on fast smoke break at work etc. I could have offered it to you, but it would be week until I woukd actually get to my pc. I am just too late to offer now hehe, sorry.

    Cheers for the offer, man, much appreciated but what I meant was, I'm already a subscriber and for the last few months it's been the unannounced games in the bundles that have kept me interested rather than the headline ones. So, despite not having much interest in BLOPS3 for next month, I'm still loath to cancel my sub. :)

    I've no interest in Blops, so I cancelled, but I bet the August bundle will have a load of great stuff that I actually want.

    No offence taken. It's your game, it'd be pretty shítty of me to get pissed off with you or think you're an asshole because of what you do with it. So don't worry about.

    I bailed as well. I have been in since the start but I have no interest in BLOPS and I have a huge backlog of games anyway. It was fun while it lasted :) .

    Ifit would have been proper blops and not just payed demo i would have stayed. Usually title screen game is the best and it's completely rubbish this time, I unsuited as soon as I sow it. I bet it will bite me in the arse now and they will put up something really good.

    This months was a bullet dodged:

    Call of Duty®: Black Ops III - Multiplayer Starter Pack
    The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut
    The Jackbox Party Pack 2
    Poi
    Planet of the Eyes
    Starward Rogue
    Random Access Murder
    Disc Room (Humble Exclusive)

    Next month's early unlock, GOD ****ING DAMNIT IT'S SOMA! :mad:

    Nothing jumping out at me there (haven't heard of most of them). I want Soma though... Doubt I'll get that for €10 ordinarily...

    Feck.

    Van Helsing is pretty god damn fantastic, it's a Diablo-esque game, hell of a lot of fun and I was singing the praises of the first game for ages. It's also the only game in the entire bundle I would've been interested in, and I already have it.

    Yep, apart from BLOPS and Jackbox, that's the only one I've heard of. Looking forward to trying it.

    I'm kinda sore about SOMA being the next early unlock. I've been holding off getting it for months, nearly got it at Christmas, when it had a week special on Steam, and again when it was in the Humble Store sale, I held off on getting it for so long, but then... Caved during the Steam sale last month. :o

    HB-Day is here again. I only stayed subscribed this month for Soma (currently €26-€28 everywhere)

    Anything else is a bonus.
