genkicolleen: The catch with giveawayoftheday is that what you download MUST be installed today. If you get a new computer, you'd have to buy the game elsewhere to get the game again.

HypersomniacLive: Here's a tip on those GAOD games, based on a friend's experience.

Most of the games come in a self-extract file format, which means that after the (online, argh) registration process completes, one can just move the folder to any other PC that meets the requirements or even backup the folder. My friend does it with every single game they get from there.

Today's offer is no exception - it may appear that the game installs, but if you look closer you'll see that it only extracts the files into the folder you specify.

If one is ok with the installation and registration process, it's another source of free, usually casual games.

Vitek: It is also of note that Harry Potter LEGO games are very easy and offer very little challenge. None of those games are meant to be challenging but others have quite high number of enemies while mainly in the first half of HP series you only "compete" with environment and hardly meet any enemy at all.

As for DLC, before LEGO Marvel there are none AFAIK.
Also, the games before LEGO Batman 2 (DC Super Heroes) are not voiced at all and are only narrated by voiceless cut scenes. I wouldn't say it hurts them, though.
I personally like the games but a lot of enjoyement is from playing co-op and it wasn't as much fun when I played solo. But still good games.

MadalinStroe: Last night was the first time I bought a game from the Humble Bundle Store and I noticed that unlike the Bundles, which I have always bought using US Dollars, I could only purchase using Euros. Apparently this is an intentional difference between the Store and Bundles.

As expected I was charged more due to Paypal's exchange rate. Is there a work around to this? I remember Paypal having the option to change the default currency, would that work?

Note: I purchased Stealth Bastard.

MadalinStroe: Does nobody have any input on this?

Getcomposted: I sometimes see a price discrepancy between the reported sale prices in USD and GBP.

genkicolleen: I've never played a Lego adventure, but the Harry Potter games look like a blast for the HP fans. Has anyone tried them? Are they as fun as they look? 5 bucks each is a bit steep for my budget, but it would be awesome to play these with my HP-fanatic Sis (I like the stories; just not as wild about HP as she is.) ;)
