    The Humble THQ Bundle





    buy it here:
    The Humble THQ Bundle (pay what you want and help charity)



    Also a fun note, they usually add more games later, so pay above the average, get more good games later.

    It sucks that I already have COH, Darksiders on Ps3 and Red Faction on Ps3, but i get all the COH DLC and Metro looks pretty cool. Thank you for the find!

    This is fantastic. A lot of people on twitter were angry but I think it's a good thing. I won't be participating because my PC is on the fritz, but I urge everyone else with a gaming PC to definitely give this a go

    Why on earth would they be angry? It makes no sense. You choose how much of the amount you pay goes to each cause, even if you're only only paying $1, but they encourage you to pay over the average with a bonus, so it's likely you'll pay at least 6-7 bucks.

    They were angry because they thought it was "runing what the humble bundle was all about."
    Yeah, it's not indie, it's larger titles, but for charity. So it's possible that even more people would buy. Either way, it's a great cause.
    Probably just hipsters being mad that a corporation is treading on their turf of lattes and scarves.

    Acutally they are pissed off that They think this bundle is the direct opposite of what the humble bundle should be


    1. Humble bundles are pay what you want - This one is a minimum requirement of 1$

    2. Humble Bundles are DRM Free - THQ Games are Steam only

    3. Humble Bundle is Mac/Windows/Linux - This is windows only.
