Quoting: kibblesHowever, I do not plan on deleting my account either. I do plan on canceling my Humble Monthly when it comes up for renewal, I will be looking for sales on other sites more... but I have so much through HB... (I have bought a ton of games since learning about them with the HiB#2...) I plan to use my account to keep downloading... to use my steam keys. I don't plan on buying more from them...but I plan to use the resources they have to support the items that I have bought from them already. Heck, if they have a 2 day free game special... I plan to get it... I just don't plan on giving them any more money.

I hear you. I am saying GB to over 100+ games in addition to some great comics but I backed up the games and books and just don't want anything to do with IGN at all.

Also this is the modern age, you don't have to give them money to support something anymore.

Quoting: kibblesI have given HB a fair amount of sales and I gave it to them on principle. Now that IGN is in the mix I will stop buying from them altogether for the same reasons.

Why does it matter to you who sits in the board, if they still operate like before? (genuine question, not meant rhetorical)

For me, I never liked the way IGN did business. I've already asked for HB to delete my account. No response from them, yet. I like to put my money where people do business the way I want them to.

Going to key my eye on them but I am ready to have my account deleted if they do something I'm not down with.

What have you been playing and what do you think?

The Original Strife Veteran Edition - I started playing this game as a kid @ a friends house but never got to end it. I made it as far as the tavern and began to bust caps in everyone and then got my ass handed to me. Now, I am on the alien ship. This game is excellent. This one has reignited my love of single player FPS games.

The King of Fighters 2002 - 1 v 1 mode - Been playing this game a lot during my lunch breaks with co-workers and @ home with the family. In 1 v 1 mode the game works like traditional fighting games where you only get 1 character instead of a team of 3. This is a great way to explore new characters you've never tried before. Right now I am trying to master Takuma.

Space Pirates and Zombies - With the release of part 2, I decided to dust this game out of my Humble Bundle backlog (I am down to 4 games that need to be played and ended from my backlog). It put a few hours in and I am having some fun with it but I am undecided on if I like this game @ this time. It's engaging but I've not had any 'smiling' moments as is said in my home when one is playing a game with glee in their heart! I can see the moment coming, though.

RUINER for Linux is now officially on hold (UPDATED)

Quoting: [email protected]Is SPAZ 2 good? What about SPAZ 1?

SPAZ 1 has been on my backlog since I picked it up when it was first introduced to me via the Humble Bundle release. The game is a solid shump/strategy game. The controls take some getting use to but if you are into these too genres meshing it's a fun game. I found the tutorial to be too long in the tooth for my taste but the ideas and story lines behind it kept me interested. I've not ended the game, yet - I have about 6 hours in.

Quoting: GuestHi ! Did anyone compare those versions with the emulator ones, in terms of input lag & video rendering ? Using Lakka/RetroArch + KMS + pixel shaders combinations, one can get amazing results.

The HB versions have the same exact ROMS that are found on the net with the exception of KOF2002 it's the 2nd version from the b model of the arcade release.

Quoting: KayKay91Oh god they have Garou Mark of the Wolves. It is the best god damn fighting game ever made!

It is but the Humble Bundle version is superior.
What makes you say that? They're practically the same aren't they? I just downloaded them both to compare and there's no real difference.

Can you pull the ROM out of the GOG version and use it in MAME?

The Wrapper on the HB version remembers your gamepad without having to initialize it also.

These HB are played heavily in my home on MAME and with the wrapper.
