Yeah I can't believe.  They were finally able to add Bitcoin.

I sent this link (I'm away from home ATM) to my 2 almost teenage sons and they immediately requested that I break open their BTC that I have saved for them.  They are stingy little bastards and asked about the "Custom Amount".  I told them minimum $10 option.

"But Dadddd!  That's nearly 0.1 BTC"

Meanwhile their younger sister is still hunting for a pink "I LOVE BITCOIN" T-shirt....

They offer game bundles for a limited time and you can pay what you want.
You get more extra things, if you pay more and a part of the money goes to charity.

Some of the past bundles were really great (especially the one with Bastion).
You get games for a bargain, indie developers are able to promote their games and charity gets money.
It's a win-win-win situation.

I always purchase the humble bundle when I get notice of it (they need to inform people better - i've missed out on some great bundles), this time I paid for it again just to support bitcoin.
