It doesn't matter what is in the bundle, just prepare yourself for "I just bought X game during the sale for X price!!! This is shit!!" posts.

I just grabbed it in the Groupees Bundle. I'll give it a shot once I'm done with the Ys games I have.

I want to believe. In a more realistic view, I would expect only 1 of those games in the bundle. I hope it's Gone Home.
I'm preparing myself for buying it regardless then ModBotting 3/4's of it to you lot due to always owning most of the stuff in bundles these days. I never learn to keep my money in my wallet.
Thanks for pointing that out! I'll move it up in my playing schedule
Does this game have any ties to Avernum series on gog, or just in a name?

Nah, just the HB store.
Most of those haven't even hit 75% off, so not likely.
My bet is on Dust, Guacamelee, Antichamber, Torchlight 2 and Monaco (ie stuff most of us bought during Winter Seal).

Remake of Avernum 1, GOG (and Steam) has Avernum 4-6
I'm up for it with AsiaGaf. Unless you want me to shoot zombies at 200 ping. I would consider myself "pretty good".
I'm totally in.
Just tell me when with a little advance so I could try to organize my schedule (like: taking a day off

200 ping is playable if you don't go melee.

I'm in for europe gaf on the L4D2 session, I played it on 360 and double dipped on pc before I realized I have no friends to play it with and since I'm a pretty chillax dude I don't enjoy playing with the community at large all that much - e.g don't expect me to be all serious business about stuff.
Great! Now all that's left is deciding when we'll do it, and if it's gonna be co-op or versus.
And don't worry about being bad at the game, I played over 20 hours and still suck

We should do some comparision and the winner gets the extra tier bundle.
Im also in for some L4D2 sessions.

Yeah, I'd better mention that I usually start stray shooting everywhere as soon as I hear the witch crying.

Nope, just being highly optimistic haha.
Don't we usually get hints through registry changes on Steam?
Sometimes there are bundle-specific subs made but such leaks aren't frequent, in part because subs no longer publicly broadcast their actual name by default.
SourCinnamon

Yes, but I think they don't need to add new registries to the Steam DB with the new "Redeem game in Steam" system.
Since the new claiming method no specific subs have popped up. That's usually how leaks happened.
Edit: Or what Jase said.
But melee is superior against special infected. Fire axe spitters in the face. Plus time-zones clash pretty bad unless you guys wanna play in the middle of the night.

I don't think I've ever preloaded a game, but how do choose which drive to download to? I'm only see start preloading, and my guess it will pick my almost full local HDD instead of my empty HDD.

Well, that depends on where you live, Asia is a big place, or maybe we can play with the Aussies.
I'm used to playing multiplayer games with 300+ ping, so 200 sounds like a pretty good number!
Sure thing. I was thinking of doing it on a Friday night or Saturday, though we have to choose it well because of the different time zones.I'm totally in.

Some love for Gone Home.
Though, it's still a little frustrating to see the genuine surprise that games aren't just bloodfests.

Injustice is growing on me. Mostly because of its hokey storyline.
But it is still inferior to MK9.
Increase the price of the hardware by $1k, decrease the price of the games to $5 each .

Do you mean this chart?
not sure how accurate it is though.

Yeah, I dunno how many PC gamers are going to keep their hardware for 8 years.

When is the Humble Bundle 1000 Bundle thing? in 3 or 4 hours?

Just under 4 hours.
GET HYPED!

That works but it was a different one. It was done by a gamer and the numbers were quite different but in the end the results are similar.
I was referring to the prices, but I admit that the timespan is also long.
Listen to nexen!
Well $5 each might be a bit unrealistic, but $10 as average is true!
Thanks!
Although I'm pretty sure all Avernum games are on gog. Will check later. I didn't know 4-6 are on steam too, though.

Living in Singapore, so gmt+8. I'm down with aussies. I hear they curse well, and l4d2 is a good game for cursing.
We can use this website to plan our escapades.

I think I'm blind, but I don't see the [the depotcache folder].
Edit: Okay, now I see it. Do I move it all?
Thank you for posting this.

So, I think the limited (Humble) bundle might be every game ever included in a Humble Indie Bundle for, like, $100? Maybe?

We are in the same timezone. *high five*
I look at this image, and what I really read into it is that I can add +$1000 to that kind of mediocre mid-range rig and it would still be worth it.Do you mean this chart?
not sure how accurate it is though.
Series seems a bit confusing with a bunch of remakes - do we play this one first?
I would go as far at $15 I think.

I would say add another 90 or so to PC since you need a better motherboard since that processor needs to be overclocked and that board won't handle it plus an after market cooler(atleast until Mantle shows up and assuming it works as advertised). Thats about what I spent on my system with:
FX6300 with H60 at 4.5Ghz and 2 120GB SSDs, 7870.
In a year I would say I buy atleast 4-5 games at full price when they release.
When I upgrade I usually have no problem selling old components to pay for half of what I'm buying. The extra $1K should cover costs of upgrades for most over the 8 year span assuming they sell old hardware. In the end costs are probably similar between the 3 platforms, but PC being spread out. You're also going to get a fresh "experience" every couple of years.
It seems, only I think that this is extremely unlikely.
If I had to guess, I would think it being some dlc collection for some well known game, or t-shirt, or LE of sorts.
That's why I said on average, if we buy some games for $10-20, we wait others do drop to $5-7, no?
Italy here, GMT+1
or EST+6
or PST+9
and Singapore whatever time -7
I'm sure it will be a super comfortable session for everyone.
That's Geneforge, another Spiderweb RPG series. Avernum has only parts 4-6 available (and The Pit). Hopefully we will get #2 and #3 sometime soon.
//EDIT
Checked on GOG, you're right, all 6 games. Steam has just the ones I mentioned though.
