    I did too. Cuz, really, I shouldn't be buying anything. And also, only wanted Costume and Stacking, not sure I will like Psychonauts, but we'll see.

    I am downloading it now. Only 8-9 hours!

    Okay, back again - I don't understand the pricing. How much does it cost?  Huh?

    Pick a number! I am embarrassed to say I paid $3 for the bundle. I was sure there had to be a minimum, but apparently not!

    Oh, and now I remember, that DRM stuff is all the attached advertising and stuff, right? Yeah, well, don't download using their torrent downloader thingy then!

    I'm no expert. But DRM stands for digital rights management, and using a game with DRM means you have to use their game manager, like Big Fish's for instance. If it's DRM-free then I don't have to go through Steam and use their manager to get to my game, which is glorious news to me!  Big smile

    I didn't pay much because I'm not entirely convinced that it's going to work (lol) but if it does I'm definitely going to keep an eye open for these Humble Bundles in the future! (Always ignored them in the past because, well, that Steam thing...)

    ETA - You know, I'm just about ready to give up my BFG 'membership' once and for all. I hardly even look at their new games any more plus I still have a few PCCs lying around if something good comes along...like Bad Omen, hehe!  devilish grin

    Ah! That's good to know, thank you RMom. I don't like having additional game managers either! But until I started hanging out with you lot, wasn't a subject that needed to be addressed because, except for my GH games, everything went through bf game manager. lol

    I'll be sure to mention when I know that these indie deals are DRM-free for you, Rmom!
