It's that time again - the Xmas Bundle is live and is available at IndieRoyale.com - The Xmas Bundle - Indie Royale right now (those with preorders can download or redeem keys at any time.)

The six-game Bundle is led off by Wadjet Eye's The Blackwell Trilogy Remastered, which includes the first three games in the award winning supernatural 2D point-and-click adventure series starring young New York writer Rosangela Blackwell.

This specially updated version of the trilogy makes a world premiere in forms including Steam and Desura PC keys, plus a downloadable DRM-free Windows version. The remastered Trilogy includes updated voice acting and a 'five years later' audio commentary track for The Blackwell Legacy, as well as a number of other smaller enhancements.

Also included in the Xmas Bundle is Eets, a cult 2D puzzle platformer for Windows and Mac that was the first ever title from Shank creator Klei Entertainment. Described as Lemmings meets The Incredible Machine, Eets boasts over 100 developer-made puzzles, plus 200+ user-created levels in a bonus pack, and is available for Steam (both PC and Mac) and Desura (PC), as well as in DRM-free PC download form for the first time ever.

The Bundle also includes an unlikely-themed multiplayer action title in the form of 800 North and Digital Ranch’s Dino D-Day, a multiplayer Windows PC FPS featuring both dinosaurs and Nazis. The Steam-ready Dino D-Day, in which you can play both as a velociraptor and as Allied troops, is powered by Valve's Source engine, as used in games such as Half-Life 2 and Team Fortress 2.

Rounding out the initial Bundle titles is Vertigo Games' under-appreciated oil drilling action-sim The Oil Blue. The satirical title has you exploring islands and managing drilling machines, based around objectives set by your employer, the United Oil of Oceania company. It's included in Desura and standalone DRM-free PC versions.

As before, the Indie Royale bundle series runs on a multi-day model where price will automatically increase as more people buy the bundle. Generous purchasers, however, can help lower the price for everyone else by choosing to pay more than the current minimum. They will earn a mention on the front page of the site in the process, and an additional bonus in the form of Rush Coil's festive chiptune '8-Bit Christmas' album. (This bonus was also available to those who pre-ordered.)

We're continuing to monitor and react to your suggestions on how we're running things - please contact us at Contact Us - Indie Royale if you have an questions about anything to do with Indie Royale.

The funny thing about this game is, the idea came from Drawn Together.

In the episode of Foxxy vs The Board of Education, Spanky Ham had contracted a deadly virus.

To help, Xandir P. Wifflebottom (The homosexual computer game character) proposes to Spanky Ham (The crude and racist Internet download) to get Gay-married, for the health insurance. Xander being a computer game character has an excellent insurance policy, in the unlikely event of his or his partner's death.

Although, upon hearing such distressing news, the ignorantly racist and highly fascist Princess Clara, pronounces:

"If gays get married, the institution of marriage will be destroyed! Societies will crumble! Rivers will run with blood! Nazis will once again ride dinosaurs!"

And vowed to put an end to Spanky and Xanders plans.

Oh, how I love Drawn Together

But not a bad price.

Force.Unleashed

The first one on steam was a monster download due to archaic non existent compression used on the texture packs.

The FU II is not 1TB, it's only just under 10GB, nothing at all.

Was meant tongue in cheek ol boy. The original DL was closer to 20GBs. They might have patched it or done whatever but at one stage it was a beast.

I loved the the first FU. Well worth it for 3quid. Theres a bit towards the end of that game that was wicked hard and had people stumped for ages. Was easy once you knew how though.

I picked up both force unleashed games.

The first one is 25gb

The 2nd one is a much more respectable 6gb.

I can't understand why they won't bloody compress it.

That is unless ofcourse, the PC version has uncompressed full on PC-glory textures and it actually looks better than FU2, which may ship with the console textures, especially at a dismal 6GB.

I mean, look at Skyrim - Amazing game, 6GB, awful textures!

Humble Bundle 4 added to the Steam registry, the games are:

Super Meat Boy
Shank
Bit.trip.runner
Jamestown
Nightsky

And if you pay more than the average then you get Cave Story+ and Gratuitous Space Battles.

No idea of specific release date.
