Awesome, I've only played Amnesia out of all of these. And that Superbrothers soundtrack is so good, it's the only video game soundtrack I can actually listen to outside of the game.
Hells yeah I bought this. I was thinking of buying the Bastion Soundtrack alone for 10 bucks, but now I got it for that price, and all these other games (albeit I owned 3 already, but only 1 on steam so there's that) and soundtracks! Listening to it already. Might still buy the CD version though, not sure yet.
I don't need the Psychonauts though, as I already had that for steam, so if someone tells me how to give it away and wants it I'll give it to you. (can you give away just one?) edit. Hmm... it doesn't seem you can. Aw well. Wouldn't be much good to most people looking through here anyways.
I always feel kind of bad treating these things like a sale and not an actual charity event. On the one hand, it's getting me to donate. But on the other, I'm mainly doing it to get the game on the cheap.
EDIT: They're about to crack a million dollars. Have they ever raised that much?
@phrosen: That's a bit of a bummer. Would've liked to find that extra copy of Psychonauts a nice home. Also I feel like suggesting that maybe you could edit your original post to mention the soundtracks for all the games is part of the bargain.
So I'm having trouble installing/playing Bastion. I'm playing on an older Macbook Pro (yes, I know) but as far as I know it meets all the specs. Whenever I try to open the file to install it I get this error:
Operation could not be completed. (com.apple.installer.pagecontroller error -1.)
I tried downloading it again a second time but still nothing. So I thought I would try the copy on Steam. I installed it in full and everything seems fine, but it still doesn't work. I'll click play, which brings up the usual "Preparing the launch Bastion" window. But then that window promptly disappears, along with my dock and my taskbar at the top. What I'm left with is just my desktop and any windows that are open. I can move my cursor, and clicking on the Steam window brings the dock back, but no game. The icon for Bastion sits on my dock and Steam seems to think that the game is running (it says 16 minutes played on Bastion on my Steam ID).
For some reason the game just won't come up. I've check Steam forums... some guy has the same issue but no response. I emailed the Humble Bundle crew but they still haven't gotten back to me.
Wait a second with the exception of Bastion all those games enclose themselves in a veil of psychoanalyticism. Limbo is possibly all a coma dream, Amnesia is about going crazy and the other two are heavily dependent on the psychological statements of Carl Jung.
I'm a little sad, since I already own all of those games besides Superbrothers: Sword and Sorcery. I still might pick it up just to get that game and the soundtracks though.
That's a sick selection. Unfortunately the only two I don't own are Psychonauts, which I'm not particularly interested in, and Sword & Sorcery, and I have no interest in that whatsoever. The other games are great though, apart from Braid.
Damn I bought the bundle a few days ago. Then I noticed brain and super meat boy were on sale on Steam, so I bought those. Now I see if I had just waited I wouldn't have needed to pay extra.
