minus-square@FrankFrankson@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish86•2 years agoUh in 2017 Humble Bundle Inc. got bought out by IGN Entertainment which is owned by Ziff Davis …so yeah it’s part of a big shitty corporation.
minus-square@BURN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish49•2 years agoHumble has coincidentally been a lot more shit since then too. I used to buy game bundles all the time, now it’s $20 to get maybe 2-3 games worth playing instead of $15 for 5-6 indie titles that were genuinely good.
minus-square@WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish15•edit-22 years agoI stopped buying their game bundles when they started using Steam keys for everything instead of letting you download DRM-free. I still sometimes buy their book and “software” bundles, though, but I always check to see how they’re going to be redeemed.
minus-square@jayandp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish1•2 years agoTheir Manga deals have been pretty amazing, when they have them every once in a blue moon.

minus-squareFinal RemixlinkfedilinkEnglish6•2 years agoWasn’t IGN the shithole that had the Kane & Lynch ads plastered everywhere, plus a totally 100% unbiased review?
minus-square@can@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish2•edit-22 years agoWasn’t it IGN that hasn’t been relevant since at least 2005?
