Well here it is and it's a good one too! Humble Indie Bundle 7 is here!
The only real problem I have with Humble is that still they are rushing things and still putting out games that just aren't polished enough.
Games:
Binding of Isaac + DLC - A really really strange and kind of sickly twisted...shooter? Also it's a flash game.
Legend of Grimrock - An awesome dungeon crawler much like the old Dungeon Master game with beautiful graphics! Worth it for this game alone!
Pay more than the average for LOG
Shank 2 - A sequal to a previously included game, the 2D brawler is back as ex-mob hit man Shank returns to action in Shank 2. With those closest to him under attack, Shank is once again forced to go on the offensive.
Although this isn't technically even indie, it has a big name publisher - EA!
Closure - A dark and mysterious platformer where you need to stay in the light! Very interesting gameplay!
Dungeon Defenders + DLC - Dungeon Defenders is an original hybrid of two hot genres: Tower Defense and cooperative online Action-RPG!
Pay more than the average for this one.
Snapshot - An odd platformer where you take pictures which removes things like boxes to put elsewhere.

Some you may have missed, popular articles from the last month:
Grimrock is mostly flawless - I've played it since yesterday and I'm loving it, especially since I originally stopped playing it because I didn't want to bother with Wine. Didn't really encounter any problems yet.
Snapshot's fun, and the port works great.
Can't say about DD since it hanged on me so many times that I just gave up. Probably will take a while before it's playable (unless a different version is in the bundle, because what was in testing could hardly be called playable).
Closure's very confusing and reminds me of LIMBO a bit. But it's nice.
Isaac is terrible as ever because of flash, don't expect to play it on a moderate machine.
Shank 2 is great if you liked the first one, the port is quite good too, but they're not adhering to XDG specs, argh!

Yeah, and the damn secrets. Secrets everywhere! There's even one right where you start!
Btw., where you (or anyone) able to play DD? I've enjoyed it for some time (but again, stopped playing because of Wine), and I'd like to know whether this works now. Also, does multiplayer work while we wait for it's Steam release?

DD was very crashy for me.

Guys, I just realized the implications of DD on Linux. DD is an Unreal Engine 3 game. Finally, it's on Linux! This opens it up to so many more games!

Exactly Dungeon Defenders is a first Unreal Engine 3 game on Linux (Killing Floor and Red Orchestra are UE 2.5 based).
This opens a possibility for many new games getting a native Linux version. I can already see Sanctum or Q.U.B.E. heading our way.

I have emailed the porter Icculus to confirm if it means others will come, not sure if I will get a reply or not.

I do hope this means that so many years later, Epic finally greenlights the damn Linux port. Just so they actually go through.
Still this is looking nice: Unity, Source and now UE3. Things are indeed looking up,

Linux will just get more and more popular now and faster than ever before too :)
