Humble Bundle - 03/27/16 09:20 AM
If you haven't heard of this deal, it's unlike anything anywhere else. For as little as a dollar you can pick up about 100%-200$ worth of games or software.
The reason it's done is that it's part of a charity drive. You can even pick the charity you donate to. I usually pick Saint Jude's Children's Hospital, but the list is long, there are a lot of good charities on there.
Not all of your donation goes to charity. Some goes to the software devs and some to the humble bundle website (they use the money to feed volunteers and get more deals I guess?), but you can adjust the lion's share of the donation as you see fit.
From what I've seen the games are awarded through Steam. Via your donatoin you get Steam keys, tho they have a login and account system for non-games like 3d modles, sound and texture assets, e-books and so on and so forth.
The current deal is really good too. I only bought the 1$ versoin and I already had most of the games, but I'd been wanting to pick up Company of Heroes and the last Dawn of War game (Soulstone) for a while. I heard the original Shining Force games for the Genesis were amazing too.
For 16$ you get NFL Manager and NHL Manager 2016, on top of the entire Dawn of War, Company of Heroes series, as well as a Karma bump for giving to charity, you can't go wrong!
