| There's a new Humble Bundle coming soon (Humble Bundle 5 - registry entry was spotted in the Steam registry). A new Indie Gala bundle has been hinted at for a couple of weeks now on Indie Gala's Twitter page so that will be appearing any day now.
No word on what games will be included for either one. ______________________  |

| Humble Bundle is definitely my favourite of all the bundles. I've pretty much stopped caring about the others until something really good comes along, cause Humble just seems to have the largest amount of super-amazing quality titles. |

| Humble Bundle For Android Is Live!And Linux. And Mac. And Windows.Time: 14+ Days Total - 13+ Days Left (as of this post) Place: HumbleBundle.com Games: IMPORTANT NOTE: A Minimum Of $1 (Or Equivalent) Is Required To Get STEAM Keys Looks like there are some extra slots there for bonuses down the line. The big deal with this particular Humble Bundle is the Android versions (although other versions are included as well). That is why a couple of the games have been in previous bundles. ______________________

| EDGE looks like it might be fun, but as of this moment I am holding out to see what the future bonuses will be, if any. If 'Android compatibility' is the theme that will be held throughout, then I don't have much hope for the bonuses being anything substantial. ______________________  |

| The Humble Bundle For Android is over 100k sales now, so a bonus (or several) may be unlocked soon.
IndieGala.com is stating on their site that "INDIEGALA 2 IS COMING THIS WEEK!". Seeing as "this week" is almost freakin' over, and their site still had the "older bundle - done" layout as of this time yesterday, they are leaving themselves with a very short window here.
In any case, stay tuned. ______________________  |

| The Indie Gala CareBear bundle launched last week as promised, but with some sort of tiered payment structure. In any case, none of the games really appealed to me so I didn't bother with it (or even posting about it here). The Indie Royale Valentine's Bundle is on its way...The Indie Royale Valentine's Bundle will be launching later this week. Pre-orders are already being taken for $3.99. What's different about this pre-order from past Indie Royale pre-orders is that on launch day the price will start at $3.99 instead of at $2.99. In other words, the price will never get cheaper than the pre-order so it really adds incentive for that despite not knowing the games. Here is the Indie Royale Valentine's Bundle message that pops up on IndieRoyale.com: | Quote: | Pre-order The Valentine's Bundle
You can now blind pre-order Indie Royale's Valentine's Bundle at a recommended €/£/$10 or €/£/$5 USD contribution, and a minimum of $3.99 USD.
The games offered this time include a fantastical first-person action-adventure game (Steam for PC), an IGF-nominated puzzle adventure title (Steam for PC and Mac, Desura for PC and Linux, DRM-free PC, Mac and Linux download), a 'scorching' single and multiplayer arcade-strategy game (Steam for PC and Mac), and a world premiere on PC for a pair of retro RPG-defense games (Desura for PC, DRM-free PC download).
Those who optionally pre-order now will get game access as soon as the bundle launches, lock in the lowest price, and receive as a bonus One Life Left's eclectic 'Music To Play Games By Too' compilation, available for the first time ever digitally (this bonus is also available to those who pay more than the minimum price during the bundle.)
The Valentine's Bundle will launch fully later this week at $3.99 USD and up - watch our Twitter feed or Facebook page for immediate notice at launch time. |
Some speculation about included games is being done over in the NeoGAF Indie Royale Valentine's Bundle thread.______________________  |

| I skipped posting about the past few of these bundles. Anyways, Humble Bundle 6 is on its way soon, so be on the lookout. Could be this week or next. ______________________  |

Hard Reset looks awesome. Might pick up this bundle in a day or so to check it out once I build my new PC.______________________  |

| Good to hear your finally building your pc. Do you have all of your parts ordered?
Also Hard reset looks way too good to be an indie game. |

| Hard Reset is getting a free patch to its forthcoming 'Extended Edition': http://www.dsogaming.com/news/hard-reset-enhanced-editions-extra-content-is-coming-to-steam-for-free/?utm_source=rss | Flying Wild Hog (Hard Reset devs) wrote: | | “Hey guys, First of all thanks for all the support you showed us with our first game! To show our respect for all the PC gamers who picked up Hard Reset, we decided that the upcoming Expansion will be FREE for all those who already own Hard Reset on Steam. The DLC should be available sometime between the last week of April and the first week of May. Have Fun! Flying Wild Hog Team.” |
Here's a screenshot saying what's going to be in it:

New Levels, New Creatures, New Boss... Alrighty then.
EDIT: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/339877/hard-reset-extended-edition-hits-us-retail/
| Quote: | | Hard Reset: Extended Edition adds to the original Steam-released game with five new levels apparently totaling around two hours of extra gameplay, four new enemies and one new boss character, an "Updated graphics engine" and "Additional gameplay elements" (of an unspecified nature), a new back-story and two new survival mode levels. |
An "updated graphics engine"? To what, lol? The game already looks good to me.  ______________________  |

| I actually won the Desura codes for this bundle in a little contest a couple of days back, so I'm not going to be getting it on Steam (What's the point, right?). I hope that extended pack comes to Desura though.. |
