Double fine humble bundle

Post by Azathoth » Sat May 11, 2013 1:02 am

It's a good one. Brutal Legend, Psychonauts, Costume Quest and Stacking. They are back to including linux native games now after the EA debacle. Average is only on $8.03 still. Go get.

Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

Code: Select all

// Replaces with spaces the braces in cases where braces in places cause stasis 
   $str = str_replace(array("\{","\}")," ",$str);

Oh, that Broken Age looks interesting :ask:
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.

It's been years since I played Psychonauts. It was an amazing game but I'm not sure if I played it again whether it would live up to my nostalgic memories of it. And I'm currently playing Stacking - lots of silly fun. That's the trouble with most of these bundles though - I've usually already got/played half the games in them. :mrgreen:
[Disclaimer - if this is comes across like I think I know what I'm talking about, I want to make it clear that I don't. I'm just trying to get my thoughts down]

I downloaded it for my PS3 a few months ago and it was just as much fun as I remembered. Because it's a cartoony style, the graphics don't look dated at all. A couple parts frustrated me, like, handling the controls and such, camera issues, that sort of thing. But at least I didn't break my TV like I did the first time I played :oops:

And this reminds me. I'd always meant to get a Kochamara tattoo :hehe:

I found psychonauts a bit creepy weird and stacking a bit borring even though it had an interesting (and still creepy) premise. Iron Brigade was my favorite game that they released lately.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

I'd say creepy OR weird is good, the combination together not so much.

My reaction to Resident Evil: Code Veronica :o :shock: :? :ddpan:
