Basically, you get these awesome games: -Amnesia: the Dark Descent -Psychonauts -LIMBO -Superbrothers: Swords & Sworcery -Bastion (If you pay more than the average price) Plus their soundtracks for any price you want starting from 0.01 (but please be a little more generous), and the money goes to funding Child's Play.
Sounds good, yes?
If you already own some of the games, why not send the extra ones to your friends? Or, if you don't have anyone to give them to, maybe even post them here to see if anyone else wants them?
Once I get around to buying the pack, I'll have a spare copy of LIMBO, Amnesia and Swords & Sworcery.

It says right on the page that it's PC/Mac/Linux. Several times, infact.

I was far too lazy to read the page, but maybe I won't be too lazy to get the games.

(They got the narrator from Bastion in to do the trailer! /)^3^(\ )
Peeps been all up in my grill 'bout dis since yesterday, despite or possibly on account of the fact that I already have four of the five games. Still tempted just for the soundtracks. I was not, however, certain that it was actually possible to gift them over Steam, at least not individually (or separately from their soundtracks...?) — can you confirm this?
Anyway, to those of you that don't have any / more than one or two of these games, je reccomande!

Down at the bottom of the page it asks if you would like to receive giftable code, so I assume so. (I'm not 100% sure though, so it might be worth checking...)

I googled it, and turned up this, which seems to suggest it's not allowed (or that it's possible on account of it being DRM-free, but frowned upon). Another thing I later found indicates that the 'Beat The Average' title, Bastion, comes via a separate key, so that can be gifted separately to the rest of the bundle.
As for soundtracks though, I've still got no idea.

I'm not sure if I want to buy the bundle; if I do, Amnesia will be sitting there for the rest of eternity. Staring at me. Daring me to play it. Forever. But, the other games interest me a bit, like Bastion and Psychonauts.

I just bought it. I've always have wanted to play Pshyconauts and the other games look fun also. The soundtracks are also really good. I just hope my computer can run them all.

I'll have to agree with Tala on this. I don't want Amnesia lurking in my library, even if I make a folder named "Z" so it won't automatically be at the top. But heck, Psychonauts, Limbo, and S&S are worth it. It's funny that this comes out when it does, because I've taken an interest in all those games just a few days ago.

Then Notch is going to pay 3,000.03. Maybe.

They just added Braid, Super Meat Boy, and Lone Survivor to the bundle!

And, if you bought the bundle before they added those, you get those for free. But if you didn't, you need to pay more than the average to get them.

Whoever has bought this bundle but does not plan on playing Amnesia, I highly suggest you download the soundtrack. It is filled with gems. Try 3, 13, and 15. I'm considering putting on 15 as background music while I play a custom map in Minecraft.

...For what game? You forgot to specify which soundtrack of which game.

Time's wasting for anyone left in the world who hasn't got the bundle yet — my sources have verified the rumours and I can confirm that, yes, anyone who doesn't buy the bundle within the next ten hours and forty-five minutes will spontaneously combust.
EDIT: Incidentally, I'm eyeballing the Potato Sack Reunion deal on Steam at the moment; I already have Amnesia, Super Meat Boy and Audiosurf, so I'm wondering whether it's worth getting the whole pack or just buying a few choice titles while they're half price?

I bought the Potato Sack back when Portal 2 first came out. Out of all the games that came with it, I only really played Super Meat Boy and Audiosurf. The Wonderful End of the World was kinda decent, but only because it's an obvious Katamari ripoff.
Though I didn't really try The Ball or Killing floor so I don't know much about them.

Ooh, I like Katamari. I don't know why, but playing that game made me more generous. Temporarily, of course, but still.

New Humble Bundle is out, and it includes a few games I highly recommend, specifically Torchlight and Rochard. Most of the other games look pretty good as well. Hopefully they'll add more games later on, as they have in previous bundles. ^_^

Oh hey, that's pretty neat. I meant to get Vessel in a sale a few months back, but missed out due to a miscalculation. Guess the joke's on them. >:}
