Humble THQ Bundle Waves Bye-Bye to Indie - UPDATED

[Agayek]

I totally would buy this, but I've owned all but one of these games for years now. The only one I'm missing is Red Faction Armageddon, which by all reports is just god-awful.

they said this is just an experiment, an extra if you will
and they have done other no indie games bundles (ebook and music)
sooo why is this thread here except to generate revenue for humble bundle? (and THQ)

Keep your eye on your GPU temps folks, titan quest has a serious problem of burning up video cards, and I don't think they ever addressed it.

It's more GPU intensive than Metro 2033? How is that even possible?

haha glad im not the only one who has had the exact same experience with the bundle.. loaded up saints row and 35 hours later yeah im hooked. something strangely pleasurable about attacking a national guard armory wearing a giant pink bear costume armed with a sex toy and you end up driving away in a stolen tank

a small update too. due to the bundles release THQ share prices have risen to $1.40 up from $1.06

Go play it in multiplayer if you haven't already. It's even more satisfying killing everything with that tank when you can have another person as a giant pink bear manning your turret! Also, car cannon is the best form of travel. ^^

So what? What obligation is there to help them out?

I'm not defending THQ. However, this HURR DURR I GAV 2 CHAIR IT EE self-congratulatory cheeky nonsense for reason xyz (not out of actual concern for those the charity is running for) is predictable bullshit.

You know what else is predictable? I raised specific points, and instead of addressing them, you decided to give a sort of boilerplate "I'm not defending them: sort of thing.

Not to mention, that's not really what RSD had said in the first place.

Correlation does not imply causation. I do hope you understand that.

Since we're on the subject, though, since the peak THQ's stock price looks to be going down. And given it was a peak for all of about a day, it probably doesn't have to do with the Humble Bundle.

There was also a higher peak between about the 29th of last month and the third of this month. Higher peak for longer. Just saying, this probably has little to do with the HB.
