The 3 best games are at the $1 tier :)

The $13 tier is a waste. I don't care to have another Street Fighter, and if I did I wouldn't want an old one. Darksiders is multiplatform, plus I've seen it @ $5CAD. You could argue this achievementless version is somehow superior to the PS360 ones (is it even?), but the Deathinitive Edition exists too...

The average games have their niches, but I wouldn't pay the near $10 price they're asking. Maybe if the average comes down and they add games I'd actually want.

People have claimed the Ps4/Xbox One version is bad. Also, the $10 tier games are good, especially Rhythm Thief. If you enjoyed Earthbound, Citizens of Earth is similar to it. I also heard that Freedom Planet is similar to Sonic a bit. Also, don't forget there's more games being added too.

Heck, physical copies of Rhythm Thief are going for $40+, so getting it digitally for $10 is a steal.

I bought Darksiders II 3 times, on XB360, Wii U and PS4. I just loved the game that much. The advantage of the Wii U version has got to be the map on the gamepad, that's a very nice feature. With that being said, no matter which version you buy, it will be buggy as hell, be prepared for that. Vigil Games were rushed by THQ to get the game out and it's been plagued with many bugs, even game breaking ones at some point.

When the game stops on PS4, the console handles the problem smoothly and gives you the option to send a bug report. On Wii U, when the game stops, the soundtrack is going to freeze and an endless tone will be ringing, with the power and reset button becoming unresponsive, forcing you to unplug the power cord. If that's something you want to avoid doing then don't go for the Wii U version. WIth that said, Nintendo or Nordic Games could have patched the game (or the console) so that such problems doesn't happen anymore, I haven't played the Wii U version since the launch.

And with all of that being said, it's US$13 for 8+ games people, it's a great deal in any case, plus charity. If you don't feel good about paying that much for games (because eh, were cheap ass gamers after all), just tweak the way the money is split and favor the charities.

Subjectively good, they're niche. Rhythm Thief is a straight into the trash game for me, I don't care for rhythm games in the slightest and that one looks worse than most to me. I know I'd have trouble giving it to friends/family for free. I am a fan of RPGs, but everything I've seen about Citizens of Earth sounds very mediocre, I know I'd never play it. Freedom Planet seems to be the most interesting game to me, I've seen furry porn for it... Quantities of porn can be quality indicator, that game might be pretty good...

 
Freedom Planet is a subpar mashup of Sonic and Gunstar Heroes, and neither of those games were that good to begin with, so yeah.
Opinions. The game has amazing reviews by Critics and Players alike. And I enjoyed Sonic and Gunstar Heroes. Especially the older Sonics.
