BTW, to end the discussion, the bundle gives a steam key for Vengeance now.
It... does?  First I've heard of it :)

I just looked myself. I only got a Desura Key, not a steam key in the one I bought.

I just bought it for 10 dollars, so I have graciously reduced the minimum by 1 cent for everyone. You may shower me with affection if you feel so inclined.

And of course, I had everything except for VotM, so I just paid 10 bucks for that, basically. No doubt totally worth it.  :D

Keith, you're like a kid with a bag of toys, and he lays them out, proudly, one by one.

I guess my 3-year-old comes by it honestly :)

Thankfully I've never seen her try to present a Hunter-Killer-Factory to us.

Buying bits of the game individually is kind of an interesting thought experiment. It's like if AI War was a free-to-play game, except instead of a 'pay to win' model it's 'pay to choose the way you'd like to lose'.

Already have the rest, but a nice deal for the soundtracks and I'm glad to contribute. :D

What albums are included in this bundle?
It says "9 OST"s so I think that means AIW + first four expansions (VotM's OST isn't done yet) + AVWW + Valley2 + Tidalis + SH.

Is the sound tracks sold separately somewhere? I've been looking for a complete soundtrack somewhere.

If not, I would be happy to pay $8 just for the chance to get the whole soundtracks (it would be a good deal for 9 OSTs even if the games weren't included), but I just wanted to check first.

The soundtracks are available on bandcamp, not sure if they're anywhere else.

It'll cost you a lot more than $8 from there I think, though.

Oh, anybody got a tigsource forum account? I lurk on there and there is an Indie Royale thread, but nobodies mentioned this bundle yet. Seems a bit spammy to sign up just to mention it, myself, although I'm sure some of those guys would really appreciate this bundle. No biggie, though.

Oh dude.
Is there an AI taunt where, when the AI kills a home command it says "GG"?

We'll have to get one of the DotA announcers on that immediately.

And then a soccerfootball announcer to record one for "Gooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllll!" ;)

It's gone now. The key it gave me was recognized by Steam as Vengeance of the Machine Comp (now that I think about it the "Comp" bit may have been on Strike Suit Zero, not VotM).
