Goodbye, birthday money.

[Vicious Parker]

Le me, looking at all the great games for sale right now.

I should probably get Windows 7 one of these days. Assuming that's still possible. I keep encountering games that won't run on XP (apparently because it can't handle newer versions of DirectX).

XP is so gross, how do you still use it?

[Stars]

I mostly hung onto XP on account of some programs not working with Vista onward. And I've never had any significant troubles with it or found it to be gross. At the very least, I prefer it to Vista, which is the only newer OS I've had much of any experience with.

[Hyperlisk]

You can always run apps in XP compatibility mode.

[Monkeydog]

I actually now prefer Vista to XP due to me being forced to use it for work, but it's still super inferior to 7. Use 7 Stars, I was scared of using it at first from XP too, but it's looooooads better.

[Stars]

I always planned to get 7 whenever I needed an upgrade. I just hadn't had any particular reason to upgrade before this. And yeah, I would probably get the Professional version for XP compatability mode.

Dead Space 1 + 3

Burnout

Mirror's Edge

Crysis 2

Medal of Honor

 

Also Sims 3 starter pack and Battlefield 3 if you beat the average.

 

Only the extra games and Dead Space 3 are Orgin only, all the others have Steam keys. Also EA doesn't take any of the cut. 

 

It kinda sucks that The Sims 3 doesn't come with a Steam key but ohwell.

So I got that there bundle, but I really only wanted Burnout Paradise, Crisis 2, and the sims, I suppose. Which means that I have keys for Dead Space, Dead Space 2, Medal of Honor, Battlefiend 3 and Mirror's Edge to give away. Am I even able to do that?

I do it all the time in the free game thread. It's usually just excess Humble Bundle stuff I have.

I wonder how much Origin paid for this.

[Vicious Parker]

My guess is that it's like valve sales. Give games away for next to nothing so that you get people using the service.

I'd rather boil my testicles than use Origin.

 

No deal.

[Vicious Parker]

Just out of curiosity, why is that?

[Monkeydog]

I bought Journey, Skullgirls, and Tokyo Jungle all for $3.75 each right now for my PS3.

 

Pretty excited for Tokyo Jungle, that was one of the games I bought my PS3 for, honestly.

Star Command!

[legacyme3]

I was really excited for this week's bundle.

 

Then I saw it was for Android only.

 

I have an Android, yes, but...

 

I want PC games, not phone games. I don't play mobile games enough to even justify the one dollar today.

 

I'll save it for the next sale.

[Stars]

Are they only on Android? The first bundle they did like this, almost all of the games were also available on PC, and you got codes for both platforms.

[Monkeydog]

I think lately it's just mobile only. But who cares? Star Command!
