Someone either is spoiled or does not value things.

Other bundles had better games and had option to pay above or below average, but a lot of ppl just buy all bundles they see, I don't. This is a type of bundle that I in most cases I dislike, old games, probably not bad, but I won't play them, so no reason to pay this money for this, even if I save 93% of money.

Spending 4,7€ in TEN games is not what can be called expensive. Having in mind that each game is less than 50 cents.
We could discuss if the games are good or not. Wich some certainly seem enjoyable while others don't. But for Christ's sake, don't dare to say that 50 cents a game is expensive. 60€ one game is.
And that's what I said, someone is spoiled. Sorry for the personal attack but, Jeez..
EDIT: To answer your edit, well I am not saying that everyone should get it. As more likely if you are not interested in the games there is no point of flushing that money down the drain. But, to those who might like the games, the price is quite competitive.

As I've said, I am not discussing their quality. Which to be honest I do not have the most minimal clue about, but Gorg seems neat, and Twin Sector too. Moreover Dead Horde and Trapped Dead are basically the same as that new zombie game.
What I was trying to say is that less than 5€ for ten games is not a bad price.
Comment has been collapsed.
Honestly they can't be that bad to not be worth 50 cents.
As I've said below my only interest is plainly on Unstoppable Gorg. As, to be honest seems quite nice.
Oh and the message I was answering to has been edited. So the conversation is not that coherent now.

Alien Breed 2? Bad? Fie! I love that game. Not much replay value, but it's a great game when you really don't want to think at all. Which is often for me.

You're missing the point. If you take 10 games randomly out of the massive number that exist, there's a high chance that they won't be worth €5 combined. You can't say that "...less than 5€ for ten games is not a bad price." without taking into account the quality. There's no such thing as a base price for a game. As with any digital product, the price is only dependent on how much the customer is willing to pay and how low a price the seller can accept for a copy of the product.

I could be missing it. Certainly.
But I don't know it still seems like a good price to me. As I've said they would have to be awfully bad not to be worth that amount of money.
And my original answer was related to the fact that it was claimed that the bundle should be 1$ maximum, wich to be honest, seems ridiculous to me.

See my other response to you, below. Beyond that, you should consider that every single one of those games has already been in a bundle. Some have been in multiple bundles. So most people who don't already have whichever of those games they're interested in, are likely those who aren't particularly interested in them at all.

Digital products, as products of any other kind, don't just appear out of this air. They are made by people who spend resources on them. Resources such as time, electricity, heat, also they should eat and rest. You can's just dismiss it with your unwillingness to pay. It's like saying a baker that his bread is a little stale so you'll take it but won't pay for it.
Comment has been collapsed.
The fact that a game was made doesn't obligate anyone to buy it. In the same way the baker is not guaranteed to sell his bread. If it's stale and he doesn't reduce the price sufficiently, do you really think anyone would buy it? Assuming there are tons of other bakers everywhere around, as is the case with digital goods.
The fact is, making a game is a gamble. If people are unwilling to pay for it, you won't recoup your investment. It happens all the time, to both large and small studios. You shouldn't pay for a game simply out of compassion for the developer. Pay for what you enjoy, so that more things get created for you to enjoy. At any one time, there is likely to be at least 1 studio that made a game you enjoyed and is in financial trouble. They deserve your money more than a studio that's selling things you're not interested in.

It doesn't, but the point was that there is base price for a game.

Producing digital copy also has a price. It consumes time, electricity, bandwidth, hardware maintenance. Regardless, if you don't like the game, by all means, don't buy it. But it's wrong to say that the game in question worth less than $0.50.
Comment has been collapsed.
Do you have any idea how many games exist out there? Do you really think it's fair to pay $0.50 or more for all of them just because they exist? I don't know how you live, but the majority of computer users on the planet are far from wealthy enough to afford that.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well I think I didn't get my point across.
What I wanted to say is that using their price as a excuse for not buying them in case you were interested is not what I would call reasonable.
My point was that for someone who wants those games, the price is unbeatable. Those games have to be EXTREMLY awful not to be worth 50 cents each.
That does not mean that everybody should get it, as that's a complete nosense. I myself I am thinking in getting it or not, as as you have well said, most of us aren't wealthy enough to blindly get every single offer that jump at us.
And well, I just realised that one of the messages I was answering to on the first place has been edited, so my answers make not much sense now, to be honest.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ah, I get it. Although, you neglect to consider that most people will only be interested in some of the games, not all of them, and the uninteresting ones will probably be valued at close to $0.00. So the full price of the bundle will be split only among the interesting ones. Also, it's completely reasonable to value a game you're interested in at $0.50 or less, if your interest is "I have a massive backlog, so I probably won't play this anytime soon, if at all, but I still want to give it a shot eventually." This level of interest seems to have become common with the rise of the bundles. People are now buying games that they normally wouldn't even have considered, only because they're available at a sufficiently low price. Low enough that, even if the game is disappointing, it won't be a major loss. And, generally, if even 1 game from a bundle turns out to be a previously overlooked gem in a person's eyes, the whole purchase was worth it. I believe this is the main reason why bundles sell so much.
With the above in mind, I don't see it as unreasonable to want to pay $1 for this bundle. There's nothing exceptional in it, regardless of your genre preferences, and anyone with a sufficiently large backlog will have only a minor interest in these games.

Even if you were interested in only one game, let's say Unstoppable Gorg wich is currently priced at 9.99€ and its respective equivalents you will still be getting that game for more than half its price and some extra sweets.
I would answer to the rest of your post, but I am leaving now, I might get back to it later.

Thanks for the notification. Checked it and there's not a single one I want. Trying to be more selective about indies. This is a great price, but in the end these would just clutter my games library and gather virtual dust.

Think this are all old bundles.
Maybe the mystery games will be good. :)

what is Grotesque Tactics Premium Edition? is it the first and second game in one key? Coz I dont see any dlc whatsoever.. Thanks..
Comment has been collapsed.
The real question would be, whether or not Steam has received an update to make Grotesque Tactics the Premium Edition or if it the banner is an oversight by BundleStars.com
The trailer on Steam is the same as this one uploaded by Headsup Games which states it is the Premium Edition, so I would believe Steam has received the update.

From Moby Games:
"The Premium Edition is the retail release of Grotesque Tactics: Evil Heroes which was previously only available as a download and is basically an enhanced version of the original game. The new features are:
Voice acting throughout the game
Changing the armor of the character will change the actual appearance
The characters are free to roam the country in real-time when no enemies are visible
Improved graphics (replaced textures, completely new water)
Improved camera
Additional quests
Additional enemies"

Comment has been collapsed.
I want some of those games, and I'm probably not going to find them at a better price, but I have such a backlog from Christmas, I'd rather not...
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm I might get it only for Unstoppable Gorg. I'll have to think over it though.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks dragonbob, without reading this post here, I could have missed the opportunity, guess I'll catch both bundles since I have none of the games concerned.

So when do the mystery titles get revealed? After purchase, or at a later date?
Comment has been collapsed.
I am seeing a ton of these games being away, so I guess they are.

I've got $5.16 onthe front page, and $5.24 at checkout. Didn't go any further.
