FHM and OOTP 14 (plus 5 other games) for $2.99

[rlsimpson2]

This is a great deal, and I picked it up even though I already had the two OOTP games. My question is as I was adding the keys to activate the games I noticed a "add a non-steam game" option, and when I clicked it took me to my list of files on my computer that I could add. This maybe a silly question, but does this mean that I could add games that I didn't purchase through Steam to my Steam account? But they wouldn't be accessible everywhere like the games purchased through Steam are, correct?

I bought it. Thanks for posting this.

Yeah, the non-Steam game thing just gives you the option of launching any game (or program) from the Steam client. It doesn't do much other than that, just gives you a convenient place to start all your games, and it'll show your Steam status as playing that game.

I haven't purchased this as of yet but am just inquiring. Do we purchase and then select which games we want out of it? Since I already have FHM an OOTP I wont need them and don't want to overlay the ones I already have?

Thanks for any input.

Nah, you get steam keys for all the games in the package. If you have the game, you just don't have to bother to enter the key in steam.

If you don't need a given game, you can always send the key to a friend as a gift.

Play (2) FHM and (2) OOTP games at the same time. I don't think there would be a problem. A developer would need too answer that.

I suppose you could run two copies of each game at the same time -- At the very least, I guess you would get an error.

But as Lukas said, you're free to do whatever you want with the keys for the games you already have, so give them away if you want.

Same with this bundle. And since we only have one version of FHM out there, we had to use the current one if we wanted to put the game in more people's hands. Given the word of mouth that has happened, I'm sure there are some hockey fans who have bought that bundle to get FHM and check it out.

And if anyone wants to post the names of big hockey fans I should target, feel free to post them here or send me a PM. BTW, I'm referring to hockey fans who have large followings on Twitter or elsewhere, not web sites or journalists or people like Kevin Smith. (The actor Jay Baruchel is a big hockey fan and has had a copy of FHM since the Beta days.)

I did I bought 15 my very next paycheck after getting in the humble bundle.

You can give away the extra keys.

Just to bump this-the bundle ends today so act quick if you want it. I got it yesterday as I've been curious about FHM and I've only played it a bit, but it's good enough for the first version that I'll almost certainly buy the next one when it comes out.

I will say this-OOTP14 and FHM are probably the cream of the crop in this bundle (especially OOTP), but the other games are a bit fun as well from the half hour or so I've played them-I hear good things about the Snooker game and Pool Nation as well. For any sports management junkie, this bundle is a must-buy.

As someone who paid $30 for what is essentially a bad beta of FHM... this is what came to mind:



Thanks guys.
