That's funny, I heard inhaling some water vapor is good for your lungs. Ah well.

And on-topic, 'tis a nice little bundle.

Steam is one of the major factors contributing to global warming.

Thanks for the heads up on this; I snapped up Rune Classic (which works fantastic in WINE) and Aztaka.

It's a pity we still don't have a DRM-free distribution of Rune, one of the most memorable games from my youth, but at $1.50, Steam is something I'd gladly live with.

Guess I pick up Rune once it is down to 1 of 7.

Can you, please, confirm that it's a link for an actual direct download of the game and not just for a txt file with instructions on how to redeem the game on Steam?

IIRC, the latter was the case in a recent groupee bundle and the game was indeed a Steam exclusive.

Only because people keep their systems chugging 24/7 idling for cards.

You can get card packs even while you're offline. The number of card packs issues is related to how many cards have been unlocked by players and your player level. You don't have to be logged in to get a free card pack. You have to be logged in once a month at least.

In order to be eligible for card packs, you need to have received all your card drops from that game already. The more games you have all your drops from, the greater the chances of you receiving a pack. And you can sell the cards and make more money than on the packs, because you're unlikely to get even 1 pack a week, while you can grind hundreds or thousands of cards in that time.

As an example, I've sold about 130 cards on the Steam Market so far, and crafted 13 badge levels, and only received 3 booster packs. The cards have made my far more Steam Monies than the 3 packs.

Ehm, once a week. :p

thanks for correcting me ;p
what do you mean? I got one pack already, and I was stupid enough to unpack it ;P If I sold the package I would earn around 50 cents, and after unpacking I got only 30 ;p

What I mean is, you wouldn't have gotten the pack if you had any card drops remaining from the game. Yes, you shoudl sell the pack instead of unpacking, but you'll make more money by selling all the normal card drops anyway because packs are so hard to get in comparison.

You're right. I just checked how many new games from what I have got cards after the steam sale ended and I'm speechless :P But I'm too lazy to even download all the games that have cards, so... ;p

If you're talking about Pickers, the size of the download file is 188 MB, so I doubt it's just txt file. ;)

Yeah really, these various bundles have gotten to be so numerous that there's not really much point in tracking them. I can't remember the last time I bought in on one, just because I've got so many games to play that I'll probably never play through my backlog.

EDIT: When this bubble pops, it's not going to be pretty.
