IAmSinistar: Pff, two DRM-free games. At least one of them is the one I wanted. Guess I'll be dumping a lot of Steam keys later. Or not, since I really don't want to undercut the charity drive side of it. Maybe after the whole thing is over and there's no more donations to be made.
There's the bonus too, I guess.

btw, I thought they would do the "bonus when we reach a certain amount of cash" instead of X bundles sold, to incentive people to pay a little bit more..

Leroux: No, Infected is DRM-free, too.
The reason I asked is because I recall somebody mentioning that Pid was Steam-only on Be Mine X, despite Groupees displaying the DRM-Free icon.

Yah, it's not too bad now that I realise there are 3.5 DRM-free games, plus potentially the unlocks. I agree that setting the unlocks at a dollar amount would probably generate more return than on the numbers sold.
ohboy, new games come to bundles quite fast these days. Interstellar marine (..with three copies in one bundle even..) and now Shufflepuck as well.

Well, i did buy them at discount to begin with - but am still quite surprised.
New bonus goal is Hollow & Akimbo - Pseudoscience @ 5,000 bundles sold
Nice, the first unlock is DRM-free and comes with a Desura key. Getting better, this one.
It's very disappointing that Sturmovik, Grimm and Redshirt neither come with a GOG key nor with a DRM-free download. Would've paid good money for that bundle otherwise, now I will pay maximum $5.
So, about Aerena- do buyers get the complete version later on?

I agree; but if there's any bundle site that has a reason to abandon DRM-free downloads it's Groupees with it's lack of storage integrity and loss of faith with customers when it lost a lot of it's DRM-free files. Even if present DRM-free Groupees content would not have any assurance of reliability.

GOG keys would have been golden.

Don't think the server crash is a reason to abandon DRM-free downloads. For users it was a reminder to always download and store a backup copy and for Groupees it was a reminder not to rely on their servers and also keep a backup.

I don't mind Steam-only games in bundles if there is no DRM-free version, but why not give a download option if a DRM-free copy exists? For me it's hard to understand.

You get a Steam key and automatically receive further updates through Steam.

I agree. I wonder if there's a noticeable decline in average purchase or sales for bundles that omit the DRM-free editions; I'd like to think so.
This Bundle is not too shabby... I grabbed it although i have zero interest in Redshirt, IL-2 Sturmovik and Aerena. But Ultionus and Grimm are well worth it IMO. :)
So which game was supposed to be represented by that tree/axe/Washington picture?

No game. Just the fact that there would no tiers in this bundle.
