Only the first bundle can be activated on Steam. This pack may be able to do the same in the future, but nothing atm.

I told my friend about this, and he bought it for 1p.
I have since disowned him for 24 hours for being a total ass :3

Yes I got stuck on that bit for quite a while too but the solution was quite obvious. Believe me it gets much harder lol. Spend like 40 minutes on some places trying to figure out what to do.

Not really in the spirit is it? If everyone did that they would never do it again.

Although I do think it make make sense to pay 1cent then buy it again for more later depending on how much you enjoy the games. No one would bother to pay again though I reckon.

They have gained an extra cent then. I would not have bought the games for more.

Is the processing after paying supposed to take so long?

Not even... 2 cents ? :eek:

CliffyBiro · 15 Dec 2010 at 20:44

Ah, got it.

Paid £2 as I wouldn't have bought these games otherwise. My curiosity over Braid got the better of me.

pumaz · 15 Dec 2010 at 22:43

Paid $6 (£3.95) only really wanted braid

jack.mitchell · 15 Dec 2010 at 23:25

Chucked $10 into the pot. Six quid to show some support is nothing really.

Even people buying the games for 1p it still gets the games into the open and shows support for the developers.

I'm a tight fist, and on a tight budget, so I payed 1c

just for Machinarium.

I don't think 1c shows support for the devs. I think it shows somebody wanted a free (practically) game and is pretty much sticking 2 fingers up at them.

If I could afford more, I would have payed more, upto about £10

iamdjdz · 16 Dec 2010 at 03:40

Bought it twice for $4 (though the 2nd was a gift and I gave 95% of it to the charities). Seems a good idea, especially since the first could be activated on Steam the other day

Seeing as 1c doesn't even equate to the same amount as 1 penny then being honest, you probably can afford more. 50p wouldn't kill you, at the very least.

Agreed. It is incredibly tight to give that little, as you are effectively stealing from charity. The server and admin costs for your download won't be 1cent, so you games will be subsidised by other donations.
