I stand corrected.

aah, but the fun that is region blocking doesn't end there: as far as I read somewhere on the internet, if you somehow get a region locked gift/key that you can't redeem in your own country, but then say travel to the destined country, that the key/gift is for, you can redeem it fine of course, but the game is then blocked/greyed out of your library when you get back again. :/
But and this is the funny part after a certain time (say 3-6 month) it gets unlocked suddenly and you can play it worldwide. O.o ... (haven't tried this myself though, so no guaranties on that of course - but I'm contemplating trying this some day to get around the censorship a few publishers like to do on germans.)

A story was circulating around the time that Steam enabled regional gifting restrictions for low-price territories and it went as thus (or at least a bit like that, can't be arsed for details/accuracy right now);

A Ukrainian Steam user who had bought Skyrim in his country, travelled abroad to live in the USA. Upon opening Steam there, he discovered that Skyrim was nowhere to be seen in his library. What's more, he was unable to purchase the game, because his Steam account insisted that it was already in his library, even though it was nowhere to be seen. Eventually, he contacted support and after a bit of back and forth, they deleted his Ukrainian Skyrim copy, so he could rebuy it (and be able to actually play it again).

How is that being gifted it though? That confirms that gifts are indeed region locked.

Sigh... I said I wouldn't bother with details, but I'll have to go with some source-checking:

http://www.pcgamer.com/valve-restricts-steam-gifting-and-trading-between-regions/
http://www.pcgamer.com/new-regional-restrictions-on-steam-gifts-come-to-light/

TL;DR: Gifts bought in low-price regions may only be redeemed/played in other low-price regions. This might or might not affect direct purchases.

Ah right fair enough. Thanks for source-checking.

No Humble this week? Bummer.

edit:
Apparently Hamble wanted to go trick or treating. He is in the link as Hamlet.

Yet another week with nary a Humble Bundle in sight.

Instead, have a not-so-spectacular Doom+Fallout sale on the Humble store.

Agreed. I suspect they are saving their bundles for their Winter sales. I'd rather have no bundles than a card-tastic bundle of barely-running shovelware. Don't get me started on the paedo/furry bundle over there. Guess it's a Rule 34 thing. Farnham Fables, for those wanting to know what NOT to add to your steam list to avoid getting on your local government's watch lists. There's funnier videos on YT, but those are NSFW.

Not a dis on those sites, I used to buy lots from there. But the quality of the recent bundles has been horrid. *Ugh*

Arg. Somehow submitted twice. Sorry.

They're saving the good stuff for the monthly bundle not to say that i believe that devs/pubs are not so keen in letting their games be cheap/bundles due to the devalorization of indie games.

Groupees is only good for music bundles (for those that into that), Indiegala is shovelware galore with a gem here and there and Bundlestars is ok, sometimes good sometimes garbage.
