I wouldn't call Sega a bad publisher. But I'd call that bundle just their poor attempt to gear attention towards Humble store to buy their other titles there.

The $1 is pretty good while the BTA is lame unless you are really interested in Empire Total War, but I took a chance on the hidden games being worthwhile.

The $1 is very nice if you don't hate steam, BTA is not that good unless you rly want one of this game I guess. It seems that BTA going down for now.

Everything is Steam-only. Supposedly, Miles' Tactic DLC is DRM-Free, but I suspect it's a mistake on Humble's part.
Edit: Apparently, it's really not a Steam key, after all.

Haha, if Humble Store starts to do that kind of shit, they won't have me as a client any time soon...
In any case, this is a pretty disappointing bundle. I think it would be doing a lot better if they included more retro in the BTA tier instead of trying for a "get cheap DLC, force the suckers to buy the base game at full price" approach. If they had just done a few classic DRM-Free Sonic games in the BTA and Jet Grind Radio it would likely be selling in the $5+ range. It seems like a minimal impact type of thing to throw in, but it would probably have generated a lot more interest. Also, even though Valkyria Chronicles was just released, making it a $15 purchase tier would have also likely swayed a lot of people to splurge, thus increasing the BTA and likely causing a lot of people on the fence or not considering it before to go ahead and buy it. Humble can generate some pretty massive traffic, and I think the volume from those who didn't buy Valkryia Chronicles on release would have more than made up for any lost revenues from discounting it less than 50%.
I think this is largely a fail on the part of whoever at SEGA was in charge of this promotion.

there were too many people begging 2 days ago in this thread, why does anyone ask for Metro2033 when it has already expired?
