Oh come on. I already have most of these. I'm not keeping it for lightning returns only :|
Already cancelled the order on the page (without viewing the keys). Do I also need to contact support?

Final fantasy alone makes this bundle worth, in my opinion.

I want to be upset but at least it has one FF game. Was hoping for two. Oh well will do giveaways for the LOK games and Tomb Raider later.

i am honestly baffled how many of you shout "refund". i don't see how this is a particularly bad bundle. FF13-3, Goetia, Hitman Intro Pack and Hitman GO are pretty good value. the rest is filler material, sure. but for 6.5€ i really can't complain. it's a decent bundle.

EDIT: now all i need is my email. still nothing here. xD
EDIT2: nevermind, got it on the website...

EDIT3: and Hitman Episodes 2-7 for 20€ is an awesome price, actually!

Yeah, I'm quite happy with it. Goetia was a game I wanted, and I was quite interesting in Hitman GO as well. The intro pack is nice in that we now get a further 20% discount on the full pack for when it goes on sale.

Also, check your order history, you can get the keys that way.

I'm very pleased with the bundle. Based on their past bundles, I was expecting a lot worse than that.

The only game I already owned was Tomb Raider: Underworld, so this was a good deal! Plus 50% off Hitman upgrade pack, that's worth $30 right there :)
A question: can the coupon be used in conjunction with a sale?

Same here... I'm glad that they "presented" us soul reaver too... Bring me nice memories.

It's valid for the second half of January so they've probably planned it to fall outside of any sale period. So the real question would be whether or not it stacks with the other 20% coupon

Happy to see Goetia and Hitman intro, the rest I'm not sure.

It's been so long since I played any FF games... Does it make sense to start with lightning returns?

I'll take a look at those soul reaver games and maybe make some GAs or trades if they aren't my cup of tea.

start with FFXIII and then play through FFXIII-2 and then Lightning Returns (because these games are basically a trillogy)

Comment has been collapsed.

A trilogy you say... Now the decision is whether to hold onto the game until I play through the first two, or trade/GA and pick it up in a year when I've had the time to play through the first couple.

First the anticipation, now the hard decisions... My friend just told me stressed is backwards desserts, so maybe I just need a cookie.

Apparently, according to a Steam review, lightning returns can be played stand alone as it fills you in with the previous story anyway.
Since this is the only FF game I have, I will have to play it standalone anyway :P

Awesome! Didn't own any of the games :-o Quite surprised about that.. Also wanted the Hitman games, so nice to get them :-) I don't really understand what people were expecting that they're so disappointed..

This is a perfectly ok bundle for the price. I have no regret or interest in getting a refund.

It has 4 games I don't own that look good - Goetia (which I had wishlisted), Hitman Intro Pack (which is short, and with my limited time that's not a knock against it), Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 and 2. I think I have Hitman GO from another bundle, but that could be for mobile.

I own Tomb Raider: Underworld and will trade FINAL FANTASY XIII. The former I also have a spare key of somewhere, the latter would be easy to trade.

Edit: All fine an well, but where are my keys?!?
Edit #2: The keys are available on the site, not in email.

I dont own any of those games so im happy but im waiting for the incoming SE humble bundle with something like jc3. If that happens i will definitely buy one. I wanted a ff game from this box and i got it so that is already good enough for me. For £5 the box was worth the price at least but i can understand why some people are complaining.

Humbles have been primarily Eidos rather than SE games so JC3 would be T3 if anything and as such likely cheaper on sale unless you happened to not own the rest of the bundle anyway.

I usually only buy bundles if i dont own any or just 1 game since i dont have that many games to begin with (good games). Last bumdle i bought was the t3 grim dawn bundle because i didnt own a single game. Was the same price on steam but the 6 extra games made it more appealing for me. One can always dream that the next bundle wont disappoint either.

Okay, this is clearly a problem with people expecting too much.
I for one, am quite happy with it.

  • The Hitman Intro pack is cool for checking out, if I want to buy more from that game or not.
  • I'm don't really care for FF, but when I look at the games in that franchise, "Lightning Returns" is probably the one that interests me most. I even had it wishlisted for areason I do not recall.
  • Goetia doesn't look terrible either. I do like click and point adventures. Keeping it.
  • I already have Tomb Raider Underworld. I'll just give it away.
  • The Legacy of Kain games really look old ... guess I'll just give them away to someone who likes stuff like that.
  • "Hitman GO" .. well yeah, that's meh. Another giveaway.

All in all, keeping 3 out of 7. I would have loved "The Turing Test", but it was unlikely, so all in all I'm very pleased with what i got. I wasn't expecting the latest $60 AAA titles within a €6.50 bundle.

If you haven't played Hitman GO on your phone before, it's definitely worth checking out. It's anything but "meh" imo, if you're into puzzle games that is (but I'm guessing you are since you wanted The Turing Test)

I do like puzzles every now and then, but the "phone" part really turns me off. I'll never understand why anyone would play games on a mobile device and even if I can play this one on my PC it's still a port from mobile. Anyway, I accidentally copied over the key for "Hitman GO" instead of "Hitman Intro pack" when I was activating my stuff on Steam. Done's done, so might as well give it a try. Perhaps I'll like it after all.

Did you grew up just playing games on PCs or on consoles like the GameCube, SNES and such?

I played my first computer game on a CP/M system (that's pre DOS, in case you wonder) and after that on an original 80286 and so forth, so yes it's always been games on PC for me. I never cared about consoles, with those controllers and without a proper keyboard. And I simply cannot understand all the fuzz mobile devices, for me even a laptop is too small and limiting. I don't have a smartphone and more importantly don't want one. Whole different attitude, whole different generation.

Different strokes for different folk I guess.

Agreed and you're right, of course.

Wow, a quick Google search shows the latest release for the CP/M OS was 33 years ago.

Yup, it had a ROM-BASIC overlay, copyright 1985. Available games were stuff like text adventures or simple ASCII games provided as code examples for BASIC in printed form - strictly non commercial. My first commercial game was "Ultima V - Warriors of Destiny" for DOS 5,25" floppy discs, on that 80286 with a GENOA Super EGA Graphics card. I still have the original box, including a cloth map and a metal trinket coin.

Linux is my main OS, I only use Windows for games and a few programs that aren't available otherwise. Even though there's Steam for linux too and an increasing number of AAA games, I still prefer to keep work and pleasure separate rebooting to Win7 (not 10) if I want to play something. And while there's a lot of choice in Desktop environments under linux, I still prefer doing many tasks directly on the shell. I mean what's the point of clicking and selecting stuff, to cut and paste it somewhere else, when you could simply type "mv xy yz" in a terminal? :-)

The pack has a nice value. Even though I already bought Lightning Returns less than a month ago, I paid $6 just for that game during a sale. Considering the whole pack was 6.49 Euro I think it's worth it just for Lightning Returns alone. Now it isn't their fault that I couldn't wait.
I'm not very happy about it but I'm not mad either.

Goetia looks interesting and I didn't have it and the two Soul Reaver games were on my list for some time. I already had Underworld (I think I have this game across all my gaming platforms) but it's a nice game for those who never played it. Hitman Go looks different. I'm not sure I like it but I'll give it a try.
The Hitman Intro Pack is a bit "meh" but it's worth a try.

All in all I'm not refunding it. At least I got some games I didn't have and they look interesting enough to justify the purchase.
