Most of those reviews are fake. Devs have gotten really bad with this lately, the % doesn't mean shit anymore, have to actually read the reviews to make sure they're legit.

I'd rather repeat more of the good games we've played than play a shit game that has so many fake positive reviews.

Ah, I see. That must be why most of them have good reviews.

Since when do we discriminate against bad games? At the worst it would be a warm up for a rocket league night.

What he said.

 
Totally wish Shake Your Money Maker had MP though.  Bro night.  Tell my wife I gotta go throw some virtual money at a virtual stripper with the bros. 

 
I'd say gambling too... but can I take a moment to mention how steam is "age gating" more shit now, except it's not really age gating, since it doesn't require putting in an birth date.  It's more "NSFW" gating and it's really annoying.

 
I noticed that too. In the last couple of days all the sudden seems like some stuff that is pretty par for the course and tame for video games is suddenly age 'Adult themed' gated like it's weeaboo furry porn.

Like I Kickstarted this and played it a little and I'm really struggling to find why it needs an age whatever gate.

So pretty much Valve's new policy is if it's not Freddy the Fish or Teddy Floppy Ear or Amazing World it gets age 'Adult Themed' gated?

I think Steam is now doing that fake "age-gate" based on words used in the description.  "Genocidal" probably triggered it for that game.

Right, let a machine auto flag store pages based on key words. Great job Valve. Never ceases to amaze me how lazy they can be.

That's kind of fucked because people might not buy games with those gates thinking there is nudity or graphic content or whatever.

Meh, we can't check every game!

 
Casual central with the new bundle. Have a bunch of them and don't want a lot of these casual ones like the Bus Driver one. I believe I have the Realms.....maybe on GOG....just not an amazing bundle. 

 
And for me... School Bus Fun is the standout game in this bundle.

Unfortunately, it's wrapped up with a bunch of bad games and 6 repeats. I can't help but think my $3.00 could be put to better use.

Motoki talked me into buying School Bus Fun years ago, and oddly enough I actually played it. Fun game.

I want Hotel Giant 2. Puzzles Under the Hill, and maybe Rail Cargo Simulator.

 
New Friday is up
 
Pay $3.49 or more (ONLY FIRST 24h) and get the following 10 Steam Games!
Pay only $1 and Get these 3 Steam games
 Milford Heaven - Luken's Chronicles (STEAM) 
 Soul of the Devil (STEAM) 
 Watson's Watch (STEAM) 

 

Pay only $3.49 or more (ONLY FIRST 24 Hours) and Get The Entire Bundle of 10 Steam Games
 There Came an Echo (STEAM) 
 AdvertCity (STEAM) 
 The Bug Butcher (STEAM) 

 Battle Forever (STEAM) 
 Stardust Vanguards (STEAM) 
 Infection: Humanity's Last Gasp (STEAM) 
 Music Wars Empire (STEAM) 

I know some of you got it for free, but I'm excited to play backlog Bug Butcher. Seems some essential features will forever remain in limbo since the devs got no monies, though. probably why it's getting bundled.

 
Seems like a good bundle and Soul of the Devil and Walton's Watch will be added to my RPGMaker collection.

Surprised you didn't buy Soul of the Devil in of those cheap bundle packs on steam (I didn't either, but just saying).

For me, the bundle seems weak if you already own There Came an Echo and The Bug Butcher, which have been free before.

Was that pack cheaper during the summer sale? If so, I missed it.

There Came an Echo featuring Wil Wheaton and Ashly Burke NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE *closes, burns down browser*

Ashly Burch? Oh god. Wil Wheaton is bad enough without a baby-voiced, unfunny pseudo-celeb thrown in the mix.

 
The bundle was somewhat expensive....well expensive for cheap bundles. I saw it in one and would have had to pay like $2.50 or so....yeah not for those type of RPGMaker games. 

 
lol, how far ig has sunk.  takes almost 1/2 a day for anyone to post about a new bundle.  people would rather hang out and post in the poopies thread.

someone needs to take ig out behind the wood shed and put it down.

 
Both Groupees and Indiegala Monday bundles to be exact are usually poop. I don't really know why everyone is going crazy for yet another Remute bundle. 

 
Not sure I would say calling the Remute bundle better smelling than Millers turd is going crazy. Also, this IG Monday is unusually bad. Think I must have bought Freebie for 10-15 cents during the steam sale.

Similar to our Steam+ MegaDeals Thread, maybe we should have a Bundle Sites+ Megathread dedicated to Poopees, IndieGala, BundleStars, HumbleBundle, etc.

I guess they realised selling loads of dirt cheap (half-decent) Hump/Friday bundles makes more money than barely cheap (half-decent) Monday bundles.

New Hump Day Bundle! Super humpy!

That Johnny Graves game looks halfway decent. Not sure about the rest of it.

Johnny graves has about 30 minutes of content. Maybe it'll get more added eventually, but I doubt it seeing as it got bundled so quickly.

I think everyone is better off playing Victor Vran, Van Helsing, or Torchlight 2.

Can't complain too much about the +++'s but there's not really much else here. Gala continues to keep their head above the Poopees line, but just below RepeatStars. Bundle-making must be tough these days.

I thought Astral Breakers might be fun as I always enjoy a good puzzle game, but if you've got a good vs. tile-matching game then you aren't going to get much out of this one. It's Super Puzzle Fighter without the charm, depth, and polish.

I think you're being unfair to Indiegala. They may not have fantastic quality, but they are doing bundles that generally have better quality than groupees bundles, and they tend to be cheapter besides (with happy hour.)

Last year I would have said that bundles in general seemed to be struggling, with every site seeming to be in a slump, but that's changed. I think Humble's been having a great year, Bundlestars is putting out some nice bundles, and Indiegala has had a number of bundles that are at least a decent value and mixed in a few really nice ones too. Groupees isn't as bad as it was in 2015, either. It found a way to get worse.
