Okay....the smoke begins to clear, and it turns out that I'm up 40 for the sale. Works for me.

Would like to take a moment and thank every person who was kind enough to sling games at my silly ass. It's very, very, very much appreciated and I am awed by the generosity of the community. =)

IAmSinistar: Apropos of nothing, I started playing Freedom Planet last night. It's so charming! And a lot of fun. I'm only a couple levels into it, but it's a perfect Sonic pastiche. And the characters are adorable. Great game for the young and the young-at-heart. Wishing now I had picked up a gifting copy when it was on sale.
I ask of thee, are you a fellow hardcore Sonic fan, steadfast in your staunch support and sincere love for the blue hedgehog through thin and thick (and there has sadly been so much thin)?

Is there a secret society for men like us?

I'm very glad to hear that Freedom Planet manages to capture some of the magic and wonder of the kid inside you who experienced Sonic for the first time.

Wow! 40 games! I'm personally up either 3 or 8 depending on how you want to look at it:

Wizardy 6+7 - is it one game or two?
Ultima Underworld 1+2 - is it one game or two?
Cognition GOTY - is it one game or four?

I was looking at that for my husband, but he didn't seem all that interested. It's a shame, because watching the trailer gave me serious flashbacks to the original Sonic games (in a good way).

(I don't know why I bother sometimes. The best way I've found to get him to want a game seems to be for me to play it, him to see it and become curious about it, and then find it turn up in a Humble Bundle. Worked for Saints Row The Third :P)

Three games on your shelf, but eight new games to play is how I'd put it.

I am indeed. At this very moment a plush Tails sits upon a shelf across the room from me, encouraging me in my work with his smile.

The network of folks like us is vast but entirely sub rosa. We know each other on sight, however, by that glimmer of joy which has never fully abated.
there are 44 game boxes marked as new on my shelf. I did not look close enough to see if they were multi-sets or not.

That includes the last sale as well. I've not touched games since before that one, so those purchases are still marked as new as well.

Hmmm. I went by how many more spaces are filled in my library, then added one for the DLC that got added to a preexisting game's entry.

By that count then it is neither 3 nor 8. Wizardry and Utlima Underworld each add one space, while Cognition adds 4, so 6 it is for me so far.

LaPtiteBete: Hell... Gabriel Knight reedition at only -30%, pfffff >:(
what a great disillusion... I was hoping for much more... ! *siiiigh*

j0ekerr: Disillusionment is our bread and mead since these flash deals commenced

Except for Stilton his mead is the blood of his enemies.
I thought his mead came from the teats of a goat?

Not a bad haul! :)
Between the two sales I have added six new rows to my GOG shelf. Some however were purchases of new releases, not sale games, and a few were gifts from generous members.

Add the 59 from last time and it's definitely an indicator of a "collection" disorder. -laughs-

If I'm going to sit through that godsdamned timer, I'm going to save some serious cash in the process. =)

Just watching playthroughs of those PoP games since I'm not going to get them. The hubby isn't interested in the bundles today either.

...already, the Warrior Within one is making me facepalm. First one was pretty good though a bit too repetitive I think.

moonshineshadow: hey :-)
Are you only looking for the King's Quest games or also the QUest for Glory games that are also in the bundle?
I already have the Quest for Glory title.

Thanks for the kind offer! :-)

ddickinson: Hello, Hyper!

Tell you what, I'll buy all the king's Quest games, and if you don't get them from your Secret Santa, then you can have them as a Christmas present from me, how does that sound? If you do get them, then I will just do a King's Quest giveaway.
avatar
ddickinson: Copycat ;-). I'm sure he would take your offer, he has a problem taking games from me, something about me not accepting games myself. Personally, I think he just enjoys bullying me (joking). ;-)
You see right through me, don't you? ;-P


I'm going to accept your offer, my dear fierce Anglo-Saxon lady-Warrior! Thank you for the having my back! :-)

*prays to mighty Odin for Secret Santa to get the bundle*
