Go and pay what you want (even $0.1) for a bundle containing Braid, Cortex Command, Machinarium, Osmos and Revenge of the Titans. --------- |

Cortex Command is worth at least $10 bucks, imo. Great game. -------------------------------------------------- |

Oooo; Braid? I always meant to give that a try, guess I got an excuse now ... EDIT: Oh, hey, Machinarium is that game? I've seen that played; that's fun too. -- |

Revenge of the Titans looks pretty fun. Braid does too. I think Cortex Command looks good, but I think I would just get pissed at it. -- |

Hmm, already bought 3/5 of the games previously. Might need to pay 2/5 of the average. But then how am I supposed to boycott Paypal, and Amazon, and Visa? Unless...

At the time of this post Total revenue: $253,398.73 Windows users are the cheapest and Linux the most generous?

They're just not used to having decent games to play.

Or they haven't previously wasted money buying apps that Linux comes with for free. They all watch too much MSNBC... they get ideas. |

There's a difference between intelligence and throwing your money away. They all watch too much MSNBC... they get ideas. |

Yeah, you're probably right. The 80% of people who use Windows are just dumb. That's the simplest answer.

It's down to 80%? More money than brains, anyway. If they have enough money to dispose of, they might still have some brains. Of course the malware might get you in trouble anyway. They all watch too much MSNBC... they get ideas. |

If they had some RPGs I might be interested.

My butt. I paid full price and they never update it. It's such a waste of money. -----sig: |

I paid $18 all up, $10 to the developers, $3 to each charity and $2 as a tip, which I assume is going to wolfire games. I already own Braid, Osmos and Revenge of the Titans, and $10 for the other 2 games seems like a bargain. I put myself down as a linux user, because I really would like to see more comercial linux games. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ |

I spent 20 bucks. Oddly, when I tried to split it even between developers and the "humble tip", it calculated 10.01 and 9.98. lawl sliders. And I still can't download Machinarium ... Braid is pretty impressive after a couple of worlds though. EDIT: Got my Machinarium downloading now via the pirates. Hope they're paying for it too but I doubt it. A penny for the children? I need that money for grog and wenches, arggg! -- |

They all work on Windows, Linux and Mac and are 100% DRM free.

Of course, I also classify myself under Linux. Indeed, I think that Linux users pay more because they appreciate the open nature of the Humble Bundle. The code isn't necessarily open (albeit, most of the code was opened up for the last bundle), but at least the license is pretty fair: use as many times on as many computers, etc. That on top of the fact that they're making Linux ports makes it well worthwhile to support them. It helps that the games are generally pretty good too.
