The Humble Bundle team kicks off the Humble Weekly Sale with Bastion, pay-what-you-want prices
Definitely starting on the right foot
Oh, those Humble Bundle folk, always planning and plotting. This new one is a doozy. Introducing the Humble Weekly Sale, which as its name implies is an ongoing project that will offer a game a week at pay-what-you-want prices. To kick the venture off, this first week the Humble Weekly Sale has Bastion available -- coinciding with Supergiant Games' announcement of Transistor. Tune in every week for a new sale!
If you pay above the average there will also be better rewards, because the Humble Bundle doesn't want the project to turn into a simple free game a week for gamers to exploit. For Bastion, above-the-average payers will acquire the game's soundtrack, sheet music, a never released digital art pack, and Bastion iPhone/Android ring tones. Pay over $25 and get a hard copy of the Bastion soundtrack, a Bastion postcard, and a postcard for Transistor, too.
Damn, if they had included the song from Transistor's new trailer I would have bought the $25 pack in an instant!
Check out the Humble Bundle website for more information. The current average price is hovering around $2.61, which is rather low if you'd like to pick up some new ring tones or the soundtrack -- not to mention one of the best games in years. Bastion's definitely the way to get this party started.

Buy it anyway! Do it for the postcard.
Also, people paying <$5 for Bastion. Sick bastards.
I'd be interested in seeing how well a Transistor kickstarter would fare, despite it technically being "started" already.
If you haven't played the game yet though, you really can't beat the price.
