A lot of gamers seem to get these Humble Bundles, Blink Bundles or Bundle Stars bundle of games. I just wondered what the best game you have picked up in a bundle?

Personally I'd go for Batman: Arkham City. You?

    Dungeons of Dredmore in a recent roguelike bundle... Didn't buy the bundle for that but played that more than anything else.

    Going back quite a bit here, but my Amiga 500 came bundled with Lemmings.

    Hotline Miami. If it wasn't for the bugs, i would say it was perfect.

    Agreed, PC version horribly bugged... I picked it up cheap for the PS3/Vita and, surprisingly, both versions worked fine...

    Sometimes it just won't load, other times you'll get it minus music, with and without FX. It can be very random but well worth it when it's all working.

    1st attempt: error (had to end a printer process ((i don't own a printer)) for Hotline Miami to close). 2nd attempt: Square blocks around character and items, still can't see text in updated version. 3rd attempt: 1st attempt. 4th attempt: No music. Sound, but no music.

    It's a labour of love, like New Vegas.

    Well worth it though. Wish the bundle had the soundtrack as well, i'm a grunge and metal fan but the soundtrack is out of this world. The game is usually on discount but the soundtrack isn't, tells you how good it is.

    Probably Rome Total War from a Humble Bundle...although that will be about the 3rd or 4th time i've actually bought Rome, I wanted it on Steam as opposed to a physical disk.

    For games bundles with stuff, I got Deus Ex with a PC back in 1999ish, which was awesome.

    Even further back i the day I bought an Orchid Righteous 3dfx card so my PC would play Half-Life and got Jedi Knight and Carmedeggon with it

    The Walking Dead Season 1 for me, really enjoyed it.

    I did get that bundle that included Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, but I'd bought the games 3 or 4 months previously so I didn't technically get them from the bundle. Really good games though, well AA was, I haven't tried AC yet. :blush:

    There are a few games that come with good reputations that I got in bundles that I've yet to play so there's a possibility I might change my mind. Stuff like Crysis 2, Darksiders II, The Swapper, The Sims 3 and Dead Space.

    Ah yeah the Telltale bundle, I enjoyed Back to the Future, that was a pretty decent game. Not played Wallace & Gromit (cba) or Sam & Max (waiting for the earlier games first) yet though.

    Train Simulator :P

    I honestly thought it would be boring trainspotter stuff, I only installed it and played it to take the micky out of it. I ended up oddly enjoying it, I still have a bash now and again. A surprising twist.
