BNR: If, two weeks ago, I had to describe the Humble Bundles with a single word, it'd probably be "instabuy". Started in 2010, the Humble Bundles did a few things, and did them well. To begin with, they gave much-needed exposure to tremendously talented independent game developers- because of them, I discovered Machinarium, Dear Esther, Revenge of the Titans, World of Goo, Trine, VVVVVV, Jamestown, Canabalt, Fieldrunners, The Swapper, and countless others.
Valve CEO Gabe Newell has been ordered to attend an in-person deposition regarding an antitrust lawsuit filed by Wolfire games.
Big deal. He has to give a deposition i. person wowie. He requested to it remotely because you CAN request this and this is common as F especially with heads from larger companies being involved. Next.
If he can announce Left 4 Dead 3 after going to court, that would make us all happy

Starlight Children's Foundation and Humble Bundle have raised more than $500,000 in donations to support children's hospitals.
The Humble Pixel Pride Bundle just launched recently. It has seven games including Celeste, Super Lesbian Animal RPG, Boyfriend Dungeon, and more. A percentage of sales support The Trevor Project.
Well. They should at least put in games that started as LGBT not the tokenism that some of these title later did. Celeste is one such example. A developer later confirms she's trans but admits that wasn't the case before. Therefore the character development there has nothing to do with LGBT pride or anything.
At least put in real ones.
