SirPrimalform: Hmm, I think I can see the space where it's supposed to be. It's not loading though, which is unusual because I'm using Chrome without a script blocker.

DukeNukemForever: Yep, you need to allow your scriptblocker to load groupees.com and envolve.com, otherwise the bar doesn't show up. Groupees.com alone isn't enough.
As I said... I don't have a script blocker.

Oh, my fault, sorry. It seems I read your posting too quick.

jefequeso: Ooh, Cryostasis. Good game.

How is Anna, btw?
If people somehow missed it, Anna has pretty bad reviews, the puzzles are reportedly stupidly obtuse and make no sense at all. You'll be playing it with a GameFAQs page open all the way through.

I just realized I didn't own Cryostasis! Cool. *bought*

Nice bundle i get it for Anna and Cryostasis. Disapointment with Blindside as i am no English native and it is damn difficult to really get into just from the ears.. Deafeat the purpose of the game to be french i guess.. :/

Apparently the next goal/bonus game will be a FPS, according to ShiftySlug. My guess is Necrovision: Lost Company (published by 1C)

Could someone explain to me how Groupees works? When new items unlock, does everyone get them automatically, or just those who were "in on the ground floor" before the goal was reached? Does it matter which price point you paid? I tried to hunt around on their website for info, but I'm finding their interface to be really annoying to use.

Also wondering if I could get an opinion on 'Blindside' - I'm intrigued by the premise, but is it actually interesting to play? (I would normally jump on Tier 2 for a game like "Anna", but I've heard such awful things about it that it really isn't tempting me right now.)

If it isn't stated otherwise, the minimum gets all the unlocks.

In for $1. Would have done more if Cryostasis was DRM free, but 2 games plus whatever is coming is worth a dollar.

Hi, the price point is up to your choice, like for this one you must pay at least 4$ to get the first bunch + Anna and Post Mortem, if you paid just 1$ or below 4$ you would get the first bunch with Cryostasis and Manor of the Damned and other goodies.

When a new goal is achieved, you get the bonus even if you paid just 1$, only skip the extra content added for pay at least xxx value to get those; in this bundle Anna, Post Mortem and a PDF comics.

Sorry if im unclear.. As for Blindside, if and only IF you are a native english speaker it might be a real new experience of a game, otherwise with no subtitles and great if not perfect understanding from spoken dialogues with accents, forget it!

I haven't noticed something like this with Groupee's earlier bundles, but I didn't pay close attention either. I wouldn't put it past them to rig the counter, it's probably good for them is the counter is just before one of the bonus goal thresholds, because that will motivate people to advertise the bundle. But as long as there isn't a pattern visible, I'd give them the benefit of the doubt.

That said, I have noticed on other sites (even GOG, I think) that various counters seem to be reset after reloading the page. It's as if the counter is a simple javascript that just increases the number every couple of seconds, and only when you reload the page, the counter gets set to the actual number of sales. In such cases, if you leave a page open for a long time while the actual purchases aren't that great, the difference in numbers can be substantial.

They're about to reach 5000 sold. And I think they have extended the time?
