The Humble THQ Bundle


The Humble Bundle (for those of you who don't know - shame on you) is a collection of games which you can buy for an extremely low price and by doing so, you can support charity and the developers.  Usually this collection of games is made up of indie games such as The Binding of Isaac, Braid, Blocks That Matter, Super Meat Boy and Bastion (the list goes on..) but this bundle includes eight "legendary" titles which can be redeemed on Steam for just a dollar, if you pay over the average of $5.62 (as of writing) you get Saints Row The Third and Titian Quest.  The full list of games includes:

  • Saints Row The Third
  • Titan Quest
  • Red Faction
  • Darksiders
  • Metro 2033
  • Company of Heroes
  • Company of Heroes - Opposing Fronts
  • Company of Heroes - Tales of Valor


If you was to buy each game separately it would cost over $210, but you can get them all from as cheap as $5.62, just bare in mind that you only have 4 days, 53 minutes and 22 seconds left to do so (precision is everything according to my girlfriend girls on the internet. I'm not even going to explain that story.

The Suitcase That Automatically Follows You

Everyone knows there's nothing better than a suspicious looking device following you around in an airport, this is where Hop comes in. Hop is a bomb suitcase which communicates with your smartphone and follows you around because lets face it, pulling a suitcase around is a pain in the ass and we wouldn't want to you strain your little arms.

"The Hop is designed to follow behind the user at a constant distance, but if the signal is lost the suitcase locks itself and a vibration is sent via the phone to alert the user. The bags can be programmed to follow one another or to be controlled jointly by any staff that may handle your luggage."


In other deadly important news, I haven't made a news post in almost a year! I'm back lol jk. Also, dear god the Blogger interface is beautiful.

26-Pound Gummy Bears


Abnormally large gummy bears are nothing new and are as popular as naked celebrity pictures, but if you haven't even heard of the 5 pound gummy bears, you're in for a treat, possibly literally if you exclude diabetes and weight gain. Vat19 is now selling 26 pound gummy bears which has an empty belly acting as a bowl with the capacity of over 1 litre (which I assume you vomit into after eating the bear's head). This gummy bear weighs approximately 7280 small, ordinary gummy bears.

"Need an epic centerpiece for your next party? Look no further than the Party Gummy Bear. This 26-pound candy beast ensures that your shindigs have no equal.

Imagine the shock of your party goers when they realize that your 32,000-calorie gummy bear also features an integrated one-liter serving bowl! Serve punches, candies, or even more gummy bears from within this seventeen-inch-long confection."

They come in blue, green orange and red and can be yours from the low, low price of $200! Click here to view the product page, alternatively if you haven't got $200 to waste but have a bizarre love for gummy bears (the sticky kind of love) you can buy 30 pounds of normal gummy bears for $90.

The Humble Bundle


If you haven't heard of this by now, I feel bad for you. The Humble Bundle is a collection of games which you can get for any price you want, the price you pay is split between a couple of charities, several indie game developers and the website itself. The bundle includes Voxatron Alpha, several old games by the creators, Gish, and two more recently added games Blocks that matter and The Binding of Isaac) have been added on to the collection. There is only 2 days left to buy the Humble Bundle, and if you pay more than the average price of currently $5.25 you get two more awesome games. To buy all the games individually would cost around $35.


"Pay what you want. If you bought these games separately it would cost around $35 but we are letting you set the price. All of the games work great on Mac, Windows, and Linux."

To buy the game bundle (which can also be redeemed on Steam!), click here.

Of course if you don't want to donate to charity and indie game developers you can always play the demos for a couple of the games in the bundle. The Binding of Isaac demo and the Blocks That Matter demo.
