Has anyone mentioned the humble weekly sale yet?

Pretty nice

Absolute Bargain...

Cost me £16.72 pence...

Meant to purchase Dead Island Riptide the other week, very happy that I forgot to do so now

Owned all the Saints Row stuff already but insta bought the $4.75 bundle just for dead island basically, great value that.

I already had sr3. how do I access the DLC?

It is bundled with the second key along with Dead Island GOTY.

Z e e b R a a · 30 Jul 2013 at 23:18

I'd meant how to get it in game. Could only see where to buy it but found it after I posted.

Fred · 30 Jul 2013 at 23:20

Already have dead island goty and all the saints row 3 dlc that i want... so just went for the basic pack for saints row 2 + sacred 2 gold + risen 2

Probably end up buying risen 2 again in the future no doubt, in order to get the dlc bundle.

I bought that, i should imagine dead island is a lot better on the pc than xbox, feels far too clunky for my liking

Z e e b R a a · 31 Jul 2013 at 08:22

I wasnt much of a fan on xbox either. Hopefully pc is better.

Just a warning to anyone tempted by the humble bundle... In this case you get 1 Key which activates Risen 2, Sacred 2, Saints Row 2 + 3, and 1 Key which activates the Saints Row 3 DLC and Dead Island... So there are no individual keys for anything really...

I went for it mostly for the Saints Row 3 DLC (I'm playing through co-op with a mate who has the full package DLC and I currently don't, so we're locked out of a lot of the missions)... and to give Dead Island a bash, for that price I'm sure a few hours of fun at least will be had out of it

However it leaves me with a bit of a dilemma, I own Saints Row 3 already, and I don't think I'm that interested in playing Saints Row 2, so are the other two games (Risen 2 and Sacred 2) decent enough to make it worth redeeming that key or should I look to pass it on to a friend who doesn't own Saints Row 3?

Tell your friend to pay the $1 minimum for Saints Row 3 and you keep yourself the other two games for the sake of it!

Sleepery · 31 Jul 2013 at 09:22

Risen 2 is a lot like the Gothic games, if you liked that you'll get a kick out of Risen.

Assuming that's a response to me, I can't do that because all 4 games (SRII, SRIII, Risen2 and Sacred 2) are all contained in 1 Steam key which I cannot split into individual games and do not get giftable copies of any of the games for redeeming the code. So it's all or nothing, I don't mind that much about wasting the copy of SRIII but only if I'll actually get something out of the other games

Not played them

Can anyone summarise?

I think he means get your mate to buy the bundle for himself for the $1 minimum in order to get the first 4 games on the list and keep all of your own bundle for yourself.

Yep, keep the games for yourself and get your mate to buy Saints Row 3 and the 3 other ones for a minimum of $1

Of he is too tight fisted for that then he doesn't deserve to experience Saints Row 3 anyways!

uncle_rufus · 31 Jul 2013 at 11:41

Ah okay, I get what you're saying... I'm still reluctant to add the other games to my account unless I think they're worth playing (already got way too many unplayed games from sales and things)

maxilive · 31 Jul 2013 at 11:47

Then pass on the key to your friend

You have answered your own question, you have no interest in those games, you have no knowledge of them and you won't miss them once they are gone so you may as well pass them on ^.^

Mark A · 31 Jul 2013 at 12:51

Glad i didn't get dead Island a few weeks ago on steam!

varkanoid · 31 Jul 2013 at 12:54

thanks best £4 or so spent. Fancy playing through Saints Row 3 again first time round didnt have the DLC.

Just looking at the stats and there was a $500 purchase for the Positech Bundle and someone paid $613 for the Humble Bundle. Some people are really generous !

probably the company involved with the bundle

for dead island games i would actually donate one pound to them to keep them absolutely terrible.

Dead island looks awful, i thought it would be better on PC. Looks sparse and washed out. Had to turn the gamma right down so I can't see the bad textures. Quite annoyed it looks that bad.
