Added another 42 games during the sale.

Thank God I already had loads of the games that went on sale, otherwise I could quite easily have topped that Even attempting in vain to show some restraint, I ended up buying 22 (plus Jade Empire in the daily deal an hour after the summer sale ended...I had shown restraint to not buy it at 50% off on the last day of the sale, but got it at 75% off less than 24 hours later )

Good thing I already owned most of the games I wanted - I bought 14 (could say 18 or whatever as one of them was an indie pack) and bought 3 gifts. Spent a scrape under £70 - bit too much for my liking considering the £1k spent on my PC very recently

The exact same thing happened to me. Jade Empire is an awesome game...I remember it from a while back, ha!

Its on the list after Fallout 3....

New Indie Royale is up, guys. I only recognise a couple of the games in it, and while Puzzle Agent is crap and has a story that makes sod all sense, Geneforge is great and this bundle has the entire five-game series

As for the other games in the bundle (Oniken, Mutant Storm Reloaded, SWIFT☆STITCH and Unepic), I know nothing about them so can't really comment.

I managed to rein myself back, but this is how I felt during the sale...

Buddy, how will you even find the time to play all of those games.

Eh, if I actually tried then I could probably fly through a lot of them...I mean, your typical modern FPS can quite easily be completed in a single day (as painful as it was for me to stroll through completing Modern Warfare 2 in under 12 hours on its release date and then realise I'd wasted £40 or whatever on it when it was that friggin' short). 8-12 hours sadly is pretty normal for the campaign for one of those sorts of games, indie games can sometimes be so short you can finish them in under an hour, professionally-made games in other genres might aim for 15-20 or 20-30 hours, and then you get the eternal time sinks like Football Manager.
If I said I expected to play every game in my Steam collection, I'd be lying. For starters, I think I'd have to be totally wasted to even consider installing and 'playing' John Deere: Drive Green (a farming simulator), nor would I have any intention of ever playing utter tripe like Shellshock 2: Blood Trails (which, IIRC, is a crap zombie-shooting FPS based in the middle of the Vietnam war), but there are plenty games in my collection that I plan on playing...sooner or later

But user reviews gave it 4.9/5!

Oh God, I don't know whether to laugh or cry I dunno, I obviously have never touched it even though it's sitting in my Steam account so I can't judge how good it is as a game and I wouldn't have the faintest idea how it is as a simulation of farming vehicles, but if I want to enjoy a bit of farming then I'll load up ZSNES and grow some corn and potatoes in Harvest Moon (or have a giggle at people moaning about how much they hate farming while they're grinding away at increasing their farming level in Runescape ). But whatever, it's something that's not on the agenda for me any time in the near or distant future. Right now I'm too busy downloading the stuff I got from the summer sale and indieroyale and backing all that up, and then I'll probably be continuing with my run through the Assassin's Creed games or one of my new purchases might tempt me into playing it.

Ah, those were the days

Runescape was much better before farming

[Crystal Fighter]

I never had time for farming. I was too busy beating the crap out of Jad.

I long for the day I buy a PC capable of running TF2. Gaben can have my wallet. He can also have my penis as I won't be using that much when I'm tucked away in my room on Skyrim.

TF2 runs on older hardware. A gig or 2 of memory and a budget graphics card from 2009 ran it well for me

Anything for the MGS HD collection for the PS3

[Intriguing Alias]

Dishonoured Pre-order (PC) for £21.85 on Simply Games, and Far Cry 3 on the same website for £19.85

[ForensicShoe]

IL2: Cliffs of Dover on Steam for about £9.

Worth a purchase for any of the fans of the earlier games in the series (like moi ).

[Dalimyr]

The "Gone Fishin' Bundle" has gone live at www.indieroyale.com

The games I recognise aren't exactly spectacular, but like I tend to say with these things, when it's £3 or so for half a dozen games, why bother whinging?

There's a new humble bundle, another android one. The current average is $6.07, which is just over 4 quid.

Results, Tesla's Lab and now this
