Don't shoot the messenger. And don't get me started about grown men (redneck, bogan or otherwise) playing a significant amount of video games...

The latest Humble Bundle looks great (courtesy of 2K Games):

Any amount:
Bioshock
The Bureau: XCOM Declassified
The Darkness 2

Beat the Average: (around US$7.20 atm)
Bioshock 2
Mafia 2
Spec Ops: The Line

Pay over $20
Bioshock Infinity
XCOM: Enemy Unknown

Some great games there. I'm keen to pull the trigger on the Above Average package mainly to pick up The Darkness 2 and Mafia 2. Pity I brought Spec Ops: The Line in recent Steam sales though.

Saw this today. Now that I no longer have Korea's unlimited data for downloading, I'm not sure how useful this Bundle is going to be to me. :(

Can anyone suggest a rough estimation on the size for each game, on average? Or I could just check on Steam, I guess . . .
O love will you read the letters I will send to you.

I suspect they're mostly around 10GB or less. The real question is do you need to download all of them to play in the next month?

So you know the CPU and ram are not as important when it comes to gaming (compared to graphics card). The i7 really offers literally ZERO performance over the i5 in gaming. Unless you will be doing A LOT of multi threaded CPU intensive tasks (video rendering, 3d modeling, programming, audio editing/creation), then the i7 is useless to you.
