I think it's choice like in the "farmer's choice" sense. They make the choice and present us with their "selection". Then it's just a Hobson's choice for us.

There are two new bundles available, and both seem pretty decent for a change.
F*CK CANCER BUNDLE:
World War Z: Aftermath
Dead by Daylight
PAYDAY 2
Magicka
Dungeons of the Endless
theHunter: Call of the Wild
Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak
Homeworld Remastered Collection
Little Nightmares
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
Peppy's Adventure
Red Faction: Armageddon
Hamilton's Great Adventure
You get them all for $10, and 100% of the money is donated to cancer research! That's a good enough reason to spend your money already, but it's a great bunch of games too, even if they're not exactly brand new anymore.
Epic Games Store Celebration Bundle:
Saints Row: The Third Remastered
Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning
Mortal Shell
SCARF
The Last Campfire
What the Golf?
Shakedown: Hawaii
All games for around $15. I don't know any of those, but they're all something that I might even play at some point. What the Golf? seems particularly interesting to me. The main thing that makes this bundle worth mentioning though, is that it's the first (as far as I know - I might be totally wrong as usual!) bundle with Epic Store games (with Epic keys obviously) in it, and I think that's a great thing. I wouldn't mind seeing a GOG bundle next. :)

Humble Bundle have just released their own Ukraine bundle, called (
https://www.humblebundle.com/stand-with-ukraine-bundle) Stand with Ukraine Bundle.
For €36.39+ you'll get 123 items (mostly games, but there are some game assets, tabletop-RPG stuff, and comics too), and the games at least seem very high quality to me. My favourites in this bundle are
Quantum Break, Max Payne 3, Slay the Spire, Metro Exodus, and
Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons, but there should be something for everyone. The only problem is that as a long-time subscriber to Humble Choice I've already got most of those games, but in this case I'll gladly spend my money anyway - all of it will be donated to Ukraine humanitarian relief efforts!
The bundle has been available for about an hour, and they've already raised more than €600k. That's awesome and a bit crazy! :D

Some other games in that bundle I can personally recommend:
Driftland: The Magic Revival (think Netstorm crossed with Majesty)
Yoku's Island Express (Pinball Metroidvania)
Skullgirls 2nd Encore (Really good fighting game)

Also really good:
This War of Mine
Kerbal Space Program
The Long Dark

Folks, if you haven't played the latest Amnesia yet, it's really good! Also, I know this ain't most people's cup of tea, but PGA TOUR 2K21 has been my main after-work chill-out game lately, it's good!
Overall tho, this bundle isn't as exciting as the itch one. Yeah the games are more high-profile but that just means I've already played all the ones I wanna play! Post Void is the only one that jumps out at me as something I kinda wanna try but haven't already. Orbital Racer and Liberated also look nice. They both have mediocre reviews, but still kinda look like my thing.
Oh well, it's for a good cause. Bought!

Wow! The Stand with Ukraine Bundle has raised nearly 14 million euros already! :wot: That's fantastic. I wonder how well the bundle is selling in Russia, and if everyone who has bought it gets a special visit from FSB...

14 hours or so left and they it seems they have added a couple of games since. In any case, it's going to be a real chore checking what games I already have in there and what I can redeem on Steam.
