As the title sales, Steam is having a holiday sale with thousands of games being discounted, and special daily deals with extra discounts. Portal, Fallout games, Battlefield Bad Company … just a few of the heavily discounted titles available right now.
So what are you waiting for? Get your games from Steam
Following the success of the first Humble Indie Bundle, the same deal is back, with five games being offered for the price of … whatever you’d like to pay.
Normally retailing for $85, these five indie games can be had for as little as nothing (boo!) or as much as you want, and you can even decide how your money will be sent – on the game, or to charity. The average payment so far is around $7, and the top contributor paid $2000 for the pleasure.
The games are Braid, Cortex Command, Machinarium, Osmos and Revenge of the Titans. And of course, the games are all DRM free.
So get your humble indie bundle today here
Update: Bonus for users donating more than $7.50 – you get the first Indie Bundle (another 5 excellent games) for free!
The award winning Portal game is now free on Steam until the 24th of May. All you need is the free Steam application and then you’ll be able to download and install the game at absolutely no cost.
To raise money for charity, and also raise awareness of the important issues for the game industry, such as piracy and DRM, independent game developers have joined forces to offer a collection of 5 hit Indie games, and you get to choose how much you want to pay!
You can also choose to donate part of all of your purchase price to the EFF, fighting for your online freedoms, or Child’s Play, which donates toys to sick kids in major hospitals around the world.
The games in the bundle are: World of Goo, Gish, Lugaru HD, Aquaria and Penumbra Overture
