Hey guys, it's been a while since I've been here. Mostly because I pretty much gave up on Nintendo stuff and all that, but also for other reasons too. Anyway, I just came here to tell you guys about this thing Wolfire Games has going on:

No, this isn't a scam. The game's developers all agreed to this. Any money that will be made from this will go to either two charities, the game's developers, or both. It's all your choice. You can even choose how much money goes to which charity/the developers.

It'd sure be nice if most people spent more than a cent, though. Even $10 would be fine. But sadly, the average donation is about $8 right now.
 
I saw this earlier on, I'm thinking of getting it.
Also, i'm sure someone has donated 1 dollar.
 
Looks awesome, at least 3 of those games look pretty sweet. If I had 20 bucks I'd spend it on this.

Pretty good cause.

Yeah, but most people pay a penny because they can. They've got a "leaderboard" up there with the most money that's been donated and by who. The highest so far is $500 I think.

I payed $7, but only because that's all I had :/

That's terrible, kudos to the person who payed 500 though, that's much more than I would spend.
 
Ehhh, I'll pick this up. I don't know if $50 would be reasonable, but whatever. :S

Wow, that's really nice. I do love when companies do this kind of thing, there's a game on XBLA; Chime and the money goes to the charity it's for.
But yeah, I think I'll pay what I have at the time being.

It would be worth it alone to buy World of Goo, but I already own it. :D
Yeah, I did too. I got it during some steam sale back in December.

Anyway, Penumbra's good for someone looking for a scare. It actually scared you, instead of making you jump with something that just pops up in front of you like in Dead Space or Doom 3.

Wii Points Cards FTW!

I might just pay a penny now, then go in later and donate more.

Yeah. But make sure you get the extra one as a gift so you can give the games to a friend, just so they don't go to waste :p
 
Well screw you Paypal. Seems I can't get these because Paypal wants to reject my card.
 
They just added Samorost 2 to the bundle, any purchasers (upcoming and previous) will be able to download it.

I can't see that on there. But evenso, that's awesome.

Edit: nevermind, I see now.
