Pay $1 or more for Dead Space 3

...

Dead Space Steam Key

...

 

[LundB]

Dead Space 3 just isn't on Steam at all, like BF3, so there's no way they could offer a Steam key.

I'm sure this is reputation damage control after Sim City, but it's still a damn good deal. Best of all, if you hate EA, you can get a bunch of their games legally without giving them a cent now. In fact, giving them money isn't even an option on this bundle, they're giving it all to charity.

Now I'm feeling bad for getting Mirror's edge for 2.5 or 5 dollars, can't remember which. Now it's not just 'Never buy an indie game for more than one dollar', but 'Never buy a game for more than one dollar'.

Anyone knows how increasing the pledge works? The average dropped to 4,50 so I thought I'd drop in that additional buck but on the page with my keys it still says that I need to pay 5,70 to unlock the remaining games.

 

[felipepepe]

This is probably a daring marketing move to bring more people into Origin... not bad, but offering the Steam keys kind of spoiled the deal for them.

 

[Bruticis]

It locks in the current BTA price when you pay. No cheating!

 

[Haba]

I love how Humble Bundle has gone for selling out a bit to full on whoring mode.

 

[Konjad]

So, it's charity or Humble tip only. Who should I give my €???

If you are not american then I recommend watsi, since it is the only one not solely for americans. if you are in a trolly mood then donate to human rights campaign:

As the largest civil rights organization working to achieve equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans, the Human Rights Campaign represents a force of more than 1.5 million members and supporters nationwide — all committed to making HRC’s vision a reality.

Of course I am not un americano! I donated to watsi, we need our negroes strong and healthy.

Well, as long as they keep giving that amount of things at 3.5€ who are we to complain

 

[Bitcher1]

Now it's not just 'Never buy an indie game for more than one dollar', but 'Never buy a game for more than one dollar'.

Perhaps it's time to take that line of thought into its logical conclusion?

 

[Alchemist]

Whoring for charity is cool by me. I threw them $5 - I'll probably never play these except the Dead Spaces though. Maybe Mirror's Edge. Too bad there aren't any RPGs on there.

Good. @Bruticis donated to gay tranny propaganda, like a true american patriot.

Say, maybe some of you know this, I've bought a gift code for my brother. Problem is he can't probably redeem it until September. If the gift code's just sitting in my inbox, will he get the BTA games they'll maybe add later if he redeems the code after the bundle's finished?

 

[Zewp]

Yep, any games added afterwards are added for bundle buyers. I think even if you paid only $1 for the bundle, they add the new games to your bundle despite the fact that those games are only unlocked if you BTA as a new buyer.

I recently went through all my old bundles and found a bunch of new games they added afterwards.

 

[FuelBlooded]

I put all of my $1 to Humble Tip.

 

[Alchemist]

Oops, apparently Origin's activation server can't handle the load:

 

[FuelBlooded]

"top agents" lmao

 

[Surf Solar]

Try it again, I could redeem them all some minutes before finally.

 

[Stabwound]

You know you're a terrible person when you don't even want to spend $1 for these games because you could get them for less.

Is BF3 any good, though? I have never been into competitive FPS games but $5 seems decent.

 

[Surf Solar]

It looks nice, has awesome sound design and has a nice mix between arcadey gameplay and some "authentic" feel (aka not full on derp like Call of Duty). Lots of different weapons, game modes and maps. Can't do anything wrong for 5 bucks imo.

I'll just wait til things settle down - I'm in no particular rush to play these I just thought it was funny that EA didn't see this coming.

I had some good fun with the original Battlefield 1942, years ago on an office LAN with co-workers. I'm sure a lot has changed in recent versions though.

I want Sims 3, just not on Origin

 

[A user named cat]

Fuck Sims 3 and its horrible load times. You can seriously masturbate x3 by the time the game and neighborhood are fully loaded, even on an SSD.

Anyway, I have no use for these Origin keys either but only grabbed the dollar bundle.

 

[BlackAdderBG]

Why can't I give to EA? Some of these "charity" organizations are way more bad than them.

 

[OSK]

Where's the Electronic Frontier Foundation? I always give them all my money.

 

[jfrisby]

Watsi seems like the best option, or cancer or aids. I accidentally gave my $1 to Human Rights campaign, before realizing they're the folks throwing a fit over the Olympics [rightly] not allowing their politics.
