mondo84: Is it safe to say that we'll probably see fewer HIBs?

Smart move by them. Build a loyal, happy following and strong reputation, then offer more options and products.
Nah. If anything I bet they do more of them, just with less of a time window (think weekend sales) and more BTA games. It would be a neat way to compete with Steam sales, as it's a business model that even Valve can't offer.

Just as a sidenote, the games are accessible in your humble account page like the games from the bundles.
Anyone know if it'll be possible to get a DRM free copy if you already purchased, on steam or somewhere else, some of the games they offer (the binding of isaac, dear esther, trine), like GOG did with the witcher? It would be pretty cool

No such system exists right now, sorry.
Great and useful listing! You can add Rochard :

bazilisek: I knew there were quite a few of those, but this is a lot more than I expected. Thanks for compiling the list, EC-. Can't wait for the store to open, though I imagine GOG won't be too thrilled with it.
They pretty much offer everything GOG does with Steam keys on top.

How will the pricing be handled? They aren't going to try the PWYW, are they? It would be an awesome progressive step in the right direction, but it would probably also fail.

Exactly so. Plus the Grimrock guys claimed Wolfire gave them the best cut, so it's a win-win-win.

The widgets aren't PWYW, and it seems to me that most of the games are priced at about $10. They'll probably keep PWYW for bundles, and perhaps for special weekend sales and such, but the regular store will most likely have fixed prices.

I've read that from other developers as well. Also keep in mind that the games come with soundtracks if they have the musical note icon on the store page.

Added, thank you sir.

I'm up to about half the character limit. If it gets to where I run out of room then I will look into hosting the list somewhere...
GOG should take a list of all those games in the OP. Write them down. Mark those games they already struck a deal with to release.

And frikkin release them all on Thursday. I do not want to see GOGs release slots cluttered by dozens of indie games already sold DRM free on the humble store.
This is great but my problem with it is that it isn't doing anything special that GoG and Steam don't already do like there isn't any discounts on the games to make you buy from hem instead.

On the other hand I am sure they will get around to doing something like that and it is nice to see them grow, I still remember the very first bundle and how I was excited for it.

It won't change that much for them, most of the game are already available DRM-free from either the devs website or Gamersgate and even some of them "semi"-DRM-free on Steam.

Their discounts have been available through the various humble bundles on offer. Buying through the humble store will apply the games to your humble account/e-mailed key pages in the same way as the bundles do.

As for speciality, it's more up to you to decide if it's important. 1. They are DRM-free like GOG, which games on Steam are (for the most part) not and 2. Developers have said that the humble store platform gives them the greatest profit margin of any of the distributors, so you can be assured that most of your money paid is going to those who made the game.

Yeah I figured that stuff, I was just saying right now it's too bad that there isn't any discounts on the list of games from the OP
