About the only thing I have any experience with on this bundle is Overlord II, and that's a pretty good little game for just a buck.
Ones I've played:
$1:
GRID Autosport - it's fine, just more GRID (from before the reboot, anyway)
Toybox Turbos - Micro Machines without the license. Lots of fun and way better than the awful Micro Machines World Series.
BTA:
F1 2018 - Awesome.
Dirt Rally - Awesome.
$15:
F1 2019 - Even more awesome.
The F1 games have been consistently, objectively great since the 2016 edition and have only improved each year (2020 is due out next month, incidentally, which is probably why this bundle is hitting now). 2018 is great for getting your feet wet at the incredibly low BTA price (£3.40 at present) and includes the DLC (two extra classic cars); if you're a Humble Choice subscriber, F1 2019 was already in that a few months back. (Edit: As was Dirt Rally 2.0, IIRC.)
Dirt Rally is probably the best rallying series out these days, although I've only played the first one.
The BTA, currently sitting very low, is probably the sweet spot; but $15/£12 for F1 2019 and Dirt Rally 2.0 is still very good.

Here are a couple Steam reviews to whet your appetite. (89% positive reviews)
If this was released in 1998 it would have been a classic. We'd be talking about it like we talk about Chrono Trigger and FFIV. This game is amazing and has so many weakness of old turn based RPGs fixed up in clever systems. The style system encourages ramp up, while the refresh system forced variety. The ability system gives an easy opportunity to try new builds.
It isn't perfect. There's a lot of little UX problems like knowing what buffs and debuffs you or your enemies currently have, but the UX is still wildly better than the old RPGs i used to play
This is one of the best old school RPG's I have played in a long time, it reminded me of chrono trigger but a bit smoother graphics i just hope that the awesome team at Zeboyd Games keep making gems like this one, I am about to go and download their new game Cthulhu Saves Christmas and hopefully have just as good an experience playing it too.
People in the Switch thread are asking about CrossCode, which hits consoles next month. You know, if anyone wanted to drop in and wax lyrical about how awesome it is (despite my deep respect for it, I haven't played enough of it and I'm not the right person to do that).
Picked up Outward to try and fill my need for RPGs that let you wander around and poke around at things. This is definitely some Eurojank survival RPG stuff.
First I missed out on some items by going to sleep on a bedroll in the starter area at the advice of an NPC. That ends your time in the starter area.
So I restarted, did stuff around the starting city, went outside the city games for the first time, saw one of the white flightless birds I saw in pens in the city, and promptly got nearly killed by the flightless bird when it charged me.
Afterwards, I bumped into two bandits. I killed one and was "killed" by the other. In this case, I was rescued by a wandering huntress and came to back at home.
This is going to be an odd and interesting experience.

Outward was pretty fun and I really enjoyed my time with it... for a janky but interesting approach to open-world gaming. I'll go back to it at some point...

I just started in earnest, currently about 13 hours in. Its so good. Like, soooooooooooo good. Very much like the old Ys games pre-3D, and very akin to my memory of Secret of Mana, which might be wrong because its been ~20 years.

So good.
I can try to drop in and discuss. I think I'm about half way through the story. I keep getting distracted by treasure hunting (not a bad thing).
Also I can't find a solid guide for the Circuits (basically the abilities/talents).
The itch.io Racial Justice bundle is knocking at the door of its $5,000,000 target with still four and a half days to go.
People and companies are still asking for their games/books/other stuff to be added. Checking now, they've added another 43 games since last night. I checked out the thread on their forums where people are asking for their stuff to be added and found one item of particular interest:
That's my point. They added 3 and the DLC for 3 but two is still in that weird split store limbo
Pretty sure the only way they could potentially fix that now is by replacing the Steam version of ME2 altogether with the Origin version linked through Steam.
They'd have to make a new DLC bundle build for native Steam - and at that point the Steam version of the game would need an update to support both solutions too, without them clashing. Which seems like kind of a crazy can of worms.
Or you can just plug your Steam CD key into Origin (I assume that still works) and you're set to just pick up the DLC and rock out. Honestly it's much, much simpler that way, the only caveat is needing Origin (which you need anyway for ME3 regardless of whether you buy it on Steam or Origin).

a work of art of recognized and established value.
Yes. Yes it is. By one definition of classic.
'Classic rock' is anything over twenty years. So 'classic video games' must obviously be something you remember playing that one time back when.
Hard disagree. When I listen to the classic rock station I definitely don't hear any music from 2000.
The programming on Classic Rock stations has barely changed in 20 years. As a genre, it was solidified in the 90s to give boomers something to listen to other than grunge. Loosely encompassing the era between Elvis and Nirvana.
In terms of video games, HL2 is a classic (and has been considered a classic pretty much since it came out) and it's only 3 years older than ME1. HL2:E2 and Portal came out the month before ME1.
But lets face it, when people say "classics" usually they just mean "good stuff from when I was in high school"

No seriously. Drop everything and buy this bundle even if there's only a hint of getting Pyre. That game alone is worth its full price.
Done. I decided it was a $20 bundle.
I went away for lunch and when I came back they have now broken the $5,000,000 mark, there are now 1,639 items in the bundle, and Pyre is now part of the bundle.

I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite post on the Citadel.
It never was.
If you already own it you can redownload it from https://help.ea.com/en-gb/help/origin/origin/download-dlc-for-classic-origin-games/#masseffect , but if you don't the simplest way is still just to get it on Origin and get the DLC bundle from there. ME2 having already been on Steam since release ironically complicates matters now.

I will thoroughly play it before I explain it in a post. Beware, as expected, it is multiplayer focused.
