The latest HIB out and its a good one. Bastion, Psychonauts, Amnesia, Superbrothers Sword and Sorcery and Limbo. Also includes the soundtracks for all!  http://www.humblebundle.com as ever.

Note you only get Bastion if you pay more than the average price, but that's only $6-$7, which is still cheaper than Bastion standalone.

Good stuff, I bought it, though only for Bastion and Psychonauts, I'm not interested in the others.

The video this time is also quite different than usual and cleverly done. They also got someone well known to chime in at the end. Score!

This is by far the best bundle so far, but I will have to pass as I have all the games. They are all superb.

It's an insane bundle and you HAVE to buy it. Heck, I own them all already, and even I bought it!

While I agree that these are good to very good games, I already bought (and completed) three of them on my Mac, bought and completed the fourth on my iPhone and the fifth is a Cider "port" (unless they re-ported it). I think, I'll pass.

I think I've heard of some of them, but I have no idea on how they play...

I guess I'll buy them anyway.. :S

And now, time for some Legend of Zelda.

More games I don't need (I only own Limbo of the 5) but I'll probably get it anyways because it's for a good charity. It's definitely the best Humble bundle to date. I have at least a passing interest in the four games I don't already have.

Holy popsnizzleberries. They already hit 2 million and it started yesterday. I think that shows just how good this bundle is. One of their earlier bundles hit that mark, but it took weeks, not a day.

I'm curious to see how far this one goes. Its up for another 13 days.

The new version of Psychonauts is native but it's also buggier and slower than the cider version ever was. Lots of stuff doesn't render correctly like fire and in the training level there's even oddities with the textures rendering for the level itself.... at this point it kind of sucks it's being replaced to be honest. While the cider version is against certain peoples anti-wrapping ideology at least it was solid. The latest patch fixes some crash bugs but it's hardly perfect and still not better than the cider version. =\

Over 3 million and still 9 days to go!

There's no stopping this beast.

They added Braid, Lone Survivor and Super Meat Boy. So, that's probably the most comprehensive bundle of critically acclaimed and successful indie games ever.
