    So it's out again this year (click). Same deal as last year: pay whatever you want for 5 games, and the money goes however you want to the devs and/or charity.

    Got it last year and enjoyed it a lot. Bought it last night but I'm gonna have to wait for the weekend to play anything (bandwidth limit at college, sucks). I've already played Braid though, great game.

    So, opinions? Recommendations for first game to play next? ...

    Once again they've completely failed to put in even the most basic of security measures, and now all you need to download all of it for free without having to bother with goddamn Paypal or goddamn Amazon is a link that's being pasted all over the internet.

    And inevitably they'll whine about how people are SO EVIL because the idiots actually made it easier and faster to download it illegally than to purchase it legally.

    That's kind of the point, having no DRM...

    Even if they put any kind of login on their websites, the games would easily be found somewhere else. In fact, last year there were a bunch of torrents available even though you could easily use someone else's code/link to get the games. They even encouraged it, 'cause if you're going to pirate it, at least don't use up their bandwith...

    Paid $20 for it. Normally would have gone higher, but not exactly rolling in cash right now.

    They are actually really chill about pirates (the blog post is about the first humble bundle).
