If that is a HB I would really like them to include an Overlord 2 version that is DRMfree. That would be an instant buy.

Yes, I realise that. All I said is that it may not be a humble bundle, as this would just be a redundant system. If I remember how it works now correctly, the Humble URL is related to the games within it, and this do not correspond with the Steam data base. The point of having the 2 entries in the database is that it can be redeemed with 2 separate keys / purchases, and Humble no longer use this system, as all redeems now are individual keys/urls.

All I am saying is that Humble no longer need a normal and BTA entry in the steam database, in fact they no longer need to have any bundle registered there at all, as it is easier to just use the internal separate keys (which it uses now anyway). All they need is associating the games separately to an account/humble URL. Creating 2 separate entries in the Steam database, which is not going to be used, is pointless. I am not saying that they have not done so, for all I know they have, people like to do pointless things all the time, but I question if this is likely a Humble bundle for the above reason. That was all I was saying. Not sure why it needed all that rage....

BECAUSE INTERNAL BUSINESS REASONS. The publisher may have more than one account in their relationship with Steam, or they may want payment for certain title groups to go to a certain account, and they want the license keys to mirror that for simpler accounting. The title division may be the most convenient way to start splitting the revenue, with this side being the publisher's share and being deposited with them directly, and the other game sales going to an escrow account for further distribution. Maybe a game was subsidized by some public art grant, that has to have a wholly different form of accounting than anything else.

It would take some kind of accountant superspy to ferret out the real reason.

on topic - steam has Hitman series for -80%

http://store.steampowered.com/sub/26687/

it is £5.99 here.

Containes:
Codename 47
Bloodmoney
Silent Assassin
Absolution

Not always. The Zen Weekly (pinball one) had 2 keys only, even though it was different tables/products.

Wow I can't believe I missed that HB. Thanks for giving info on how it is redeemed too, always good to add infos to wikis.

Granted, this was the case then.

I do not think they will do the same with games, though. they will have the same problems as before.

BECAUSE RAGE MAKES EVERYTHING BETTER.

As other folks said, the Pinball FX2 sets were bundled like that, so I'm guessing this is just Codemasters not wanting their games to get split up and resold. A smart move, but annoying for those of us who already have most of that stuff.

+ Nice...

Sorry for being off topic, but I need some feedback on arklash!
Is it any good? Been considering it for the longest time since I'm a huge fan of tactical RPGs eg. Tactics Ogre, XCOM: EU, Fallout tactics, King Bounty Series. Tempted to pull the trigger but I just bought the ARMA humble bundle and haven't even installed it. too many good deals!

Like wy4786 said, also wondering about Aarklash from that GOG game site. Is $8.50 decent, or should I wait for an indie bundle?

Back OT
Steam has a two-day deal (1/3 over) on Knights of Pen and Paper +1/Deluxe for $2.50/$3.75
Any thoughts on this one, also?

I absolutely advice against Knights of Pen and Paper+1. I bought it some time ago when it was on sale on gamersgate and uninstalled it after about 30 seconds of playing it. Despite being and offline game, it does have an ingame cash shop and I got offered to just buy some gold for X euros to extend my partyslots right from the start. I think it even popped up when I tryed to buy something that I couldn't afford yet.

bout Aarklash: I would wait for -75% or a bundle. From my point of view it allways makes me a little bit upset (or is it just I feel upset?) to see a game I bought in a 1$ bundle and it can happen sooo fast nowadays...

Greets!

Anyone personally purchased the GTA TRILOGY + GTA IV [Online Game Code] from amazon.com would know if it turely comes with Episodes from Liberty City?

edit: did a test, went ahead and purchased it, and it did not come with episodes from liberty city. Just a heads up for all you that want to purchase it for the EC.
