Psyringe: Humm. Apparently I need to eat my hat now. Actually, considering how epically I failed with my prediction, one hat might not be enough. Any suggestions? ;)

htown1980: your logic was sound... these additions were totally unnecessary
Well, I could probably say that, but then I'd feel like one of those soccer players who claim "we did choose the right tactics for this game" after receiving a 0-5 drubbing. It might even be true, but has been rendered irrelevant. ;)
Bought this bundle. Insane bargain and well worth the $8 (I am poor). I just love how I could choose where the money went. Its rare when you can say that each game in the bundle is fantastic and have the majority agree. With the bank the developers must be making from their cut I'm hoping they take the hint and we get some new games in the same vein.

SirPrimalform: Did he buy it as a gift? If so, that'll be why.
Yup, that's exactly why. I'll make sure to stick to non-gifts in future.
So I finally got around to making the purchase.

The steam copies are steamworks drm only, yes?

Trying to decide if I should install the steam versions or the completely drm free versions. I'm not particulary bothered by steams native drm, but don't want anything to do with securom or its ilk.

As far as I know. It would be rather odd to put additional DRM on a steam version when you're giving DRM-free copies to the very same customers at the same time.

In fact, some Humble games are DRMless even on Steam. Take Super Meat Boy. Install the Steam version and try to run it without the Steam client. It works, without launching the client. And it still keeps track of your progress and achievements, which it sends to Steam the next time you start the game when the client is running.
I'm not normally a huge fan of video game soundtracks, but today I was bored at work and decided to download the Sword and Sworcery soundtrack from the bundle. I'm loving it, may try Bastion this afternoon, really just kind of nerd out at my desk today.

Cool, good to hear.
Lone Survivor also works without steam client run.
Just bought mine for 30 caps .... but now I feel selfish. I was planning to put that price when there was 5 games, now there are eight.
Note to myself : Make credit card scream for humble bundle 6.

Question : what ratio did you use ? I would have like to see the stats of 'how much does everyone get ?'


It's reaching 4.000.000 ... that is awesome.
I tend to go 48% developers, 47% charity and 5% HiB. So far never bought a bundle under $20.00.
Bought this but already having problems. I was anxious to give Limbo a try but it seems that I've got some sort of video bug that causes a transparent duplicate of the game screen to simultaneously appear in the upper left hand corner of the screen. Let me tell you it really takes you out of the game's atmosphere. I've got a 280 and my drivers are outdated, so I guess I should update them to see if that fixes it. They had worked so well for me up until now that I hate to possibly screw things up elsewhere. I just hate video card driver updates...
This is a long shot but does anyone happen to have an extra Steam code for Cave Story+ for Steam from the Humble Indie Bundle #4 I missed it and am wanting to play the game pretty badly if you do please pm me
Holy schnitzel,

$4 Millions+ and 500,000+ purchases already.

Gift this bundle to every gamer you know, do it, best humble bundle ever. :)

You know me now!
Seriously speaking, is any of the three HIB's forms of payment like GOG's? You know, just put your card's number, without having to create another acc that'll keep all my data.
