Sweet! And looks like we'll probably make it.

I've gotta say, I'm impressed with the Groupees staff (specifically Johnny.) He basically let the chatters come up with the goal, and purposely made it something quickly attainable. The fact that he interacts with the customers and gives hints, etc. is pretty cool tool.

I've been a fan of Groupees since BM2 though. I missed BM1, but managed to get all of the games. Wish I didn't miss out on BaB2 though.

You know, I was one of the main people giving Groupees hell after BM1, but man have they gotten everything together and made me feel guilty for ever being critical of them. They are easily my #2 bundle site after IR.

A relatively new bonus game? I'm sold. They only need 750 more purchases with 11 days left.

That trailer is making my pants a little tight in the crotch. Can't wait.

I'm a big KFS fan. It's brutally difficult though and not really expertly designed. It's made by Chinese people with a lot of ideas and not a lot of sophistication. I liked it but it is ABSURDLY hard at times. Kinda like Ninja Gaiden difficulty and pacing-wise without such sophisticated combat

Yeah, I missed BM1, and don't even really remember why people were upset with them. I think their site was really buggy? I remember people being a tad cautious with BM2 but that seems to all be gone now.

HIB is obviously my #1 - mainly because of HIB 5 and 6. Royale was number two for me, but lately I have skipped alot of their bundles, so it's dropped down for me, personally, not quality wise. I think Groupees is my #2, lol.

I know, and I 100% agree with you (both posts), but HIB just draws my love for some reason. =P

I think HIB is great, great site, system, games. My problem is:

#1 - I buy so many games and HiB seems to have the most repeats for me. Maybe if I grow more patient that will change.

#2 - Grouped keys? Really? So I still am paying for something I already own and get nothing in return?

#3 - Bundles don't happen often enough.

#4 - In between bundles are pretty weak IMO.

#5 - It is the Apple of indie bundles... snobby...lol

Absolutely agree on the grouped keys point. What a pain in the ass.

I'd rather have a unified key that I can get for a buck than separate keys that are gonna cost me $5.

Thought I posted in here, but yeah, probably one of the best packs I've bought so far for $5. Great timing that Stranger's Wrath HD was in this (not really interested in the other Oddworld games). All the other games were just extra for me since I didn't have any of them.

I guess I'm not really seeing your point.

HIB has prices to beat to get the full extent of the bundle as well. Nearly always more than 5$.

If Groupees keeps it up, they're going to be the #1 bundler in a lot more peoples' books. In a way I like HIB more because it's only a buck, but their BTA incentives never interest me ($4 for a $10 game that will hit 75% off within a year?), and like was mentioned above, way too many repeats.

Groupees is probably my favorite bundler though. Their chat support is the best around (when Jonny is online) and they're really down to earth. I also like their music choices better than any of the other bundlers (and also their pure music bundles). They've given out some weak games, but also some underrated gems, and they're getting better every time.

Keep it up Groupees! Looking forward to getting Kung-Fu Strike.

Damnit, I won Kung-Fu Strike from a BGCQ steamgifts giveaway. Was looking forward to it being To The Moon lol.

I'm really digging that kung fu strike trailer. The gameplay from the vid reminds of MK shaolin monks, and it looks we'll make the goal for it easily

Glad I passed on it when it was on sale....I'm never buying an indie game from Steam again.
