It's kind of funny that average purchase is higher than a majority of game bundles.

Mivas: It's kind of funny that average purchase is higher than a majority of game bundles.
The average usually is for these off-shoot bundles. The first eBook bundle had an average of $14.28 and the second $10.90. The humble music bundle did well also with an $8.37 average.

I guess without the appeal of some games for a dollar, most of the cheaper buyers skip out leaving the more dedicated fans to raise the price up.

Methinks Humble ran out of devs willing to sacrifice their games on the $1 HB altar :D

Malv0isin: Heh. Getting people toned down so they can come back with Humble Origin Bundle 2!! :)

Including all those games that people thought would be in the original bundle: Dead Space 2, Bulletstorm, Medal of Honor: Airborne, etc. And this time, it'll be the EA we all know and love. None of their portion goes to charity.
Lets see if HB will donate their tips to charity this time ;)

hedwards: To be fair, I think most of the best American comedians never get on TV because they offend most of the viewership.

Plus, your British, you guys have some pretty fucking amazing comedians. Seems unfair to be expected to compete with Benny Hill, Eddy Izzard and all the rest.

Fesin: I'd wanna buy it for Louis CK alone (I love the guy), but the BTA is pretty damn high - I guess it's because everybody who's gonna buy this bundle is gonna want Louis CK.
You can buy the Louis CK on his site for $5 (here). It's DRM-free, too.

There's no shortage of them. Just look at Groupees.

Jimmer1: If you like comedy, this is a pretty strong offering. I think the weakest of the group is Buress and he's very good. If you've not heard the women before (Bamford & Notaro), do yourself a favor a watch some YouTube videos. They're hysterical!
I agree, Louis C.K.'s piece (which I bought earlier when he put it out DRM-free for $5 back in 2011) is easily worth the price of admission. I don't see why so many people are complaining; after all, they've done non-game bundles like the indie music and eBook bundles before.

My only complaint is that they didn't include Aziz Ansari's DRM-free peformance recording, "Dangerously Delicious".

That Jim Norton intro

Hmm. I'm not so impressed by the bundle. Seems that they are starting to sell anything, not only games. I'm waiting for the Humble Cars Bundle: Pay as much as you want for a Laborghini, a Porsche and a Ferrari. ^^

Might be a great bundle, but the intro video is so off-putting that I totally lost interest in it. I hope Maria Bamford is better in her own shows...

I was tempted by Louie, but when I think about it I already spend too much on TV (£50 a month) and not enough on games (maybe £10 a month) so I'll keep my paltry money for when Humble goes back to games.

They've been doing non-gaming bundles for quite some time now, namely two E-book bundles and a music bundle. This isn't exactly the first time they've done something different. :P

Holy shinkeys! Someone just paid $10,000! Brought the average up by like 34 cents!

I think this bundle was made specifically for me. Honestly, I'd say 4 of these people are in my top 5 current favorite comedians.
I'm really happy to see Gary Gullman here! There is not enough love for that guy! I saw that special on TV a few months ago, and it was one of the funniest hours of television I've seen in years.
Really excited to finally hear Tig's album. I kept putting it off, but now I don't have an excuse.
The only person I'm not familiar with is Hannibal Buress. I've never heard of him.

Really outstanding bundle, IMO. I'm really excited to watch and listen to all of it.

BTW - Gary Gullman and I am Comic are both video, not audio. Dunno why they are indicating audio on the front page. They are video only.
