Humble Indie Bundle 7 expanded with more games!
27 Dec 2012 at 9:10 pm UTC

Quoting: "liamdawe, post: 7342, member: 1"The THQ will probably always be the biggest just for the fact it was all AAA games people could get for cheap. I doubt anyone would suddenly blame Linux if this bundle isn't close to the THQ one since this is an indie bundle it should be measured against the other HIB's not the THQ one.

Well what they could say is that this didn't sell as well as the THQ bundle because it didn't have all those AAA games and the reason it didn't have those AAA games is due to Linux and DRM free, so for future bundles lets drop that whole Linux and DRM free thing so we can have AAA games and replicate the success of the THQ bundle!

Well it has still not reached 50% of the THQ bundle. I am afraid that the VC/corporate guys backing Humble Bundle Inc while blame Linux and DRM free for any drop in revenue/donations compared to the THQ bundle.

THQ looking at possible Linux ports
16 Dec 2012 at 3:43 pm UTC

A pretty meaningless statement. Looking at it can mean a whole bunch of things and can can have a lot of different outcomes. Looking at it for which games? Which timeframes? How seriously are the considering it? Have they talked to any potential porters? Are they thinking of native ports or something using Winelib or the like, maybe both on a case by case basis? Lots of potential issues here. It could just be a loose thought by a couple of guys.

I got this, just because of the whole THQ thing. Since these guys seem to value the same principles the Humble Bundle guys used to.
