Humble Store has a winter sale for the next two weeks. How do they handle sales, one discount for the entire duration or is it one of those where I have to check up every day to see if that 50% has turned into 75%?

I'm looking into buying Prototype 2 and Invisible, Inc.. Question: is the RADNET access pack or Invisible Inc's DLC worth my time and money? From what I can tell, Invisible Inc is good addition to the base game and worth it, whereas RADNET gives a bunch of online stuff I don't care about and some overpowered toys into an already imbalanced sandbox of destruction.

The Invisible Inc DLC is, as far as I understand, simply "more options". I'd say you're OK with playing the base game, then getting the DLC on a bigger sale (if you enjoyed the game) to have an excuse to play it some more :)

Omkiron: The Nomad Soul

Summary:
Apparently a game that David Bowie was heavily involved in making is free for a week from the Square Enix store as a tribute to him. 
Add to cart and use the promo code "omikron".  Go through the process, and you'll end up with a Steam activation code for the game.

Just did this myself, so it works.

According to RPS, for the US, the link is
https://store.na.square-enix.com/product/281956/omikron-the-nomad-soul-pc-download

and for the EU (or all non-US?) it's

Apparently, if you are not in the US or EU, you can't get it for free. I guess maybe with a VPN.

EU store link opens the store page, but when I click "buy" it gives me an error. :/ Anyone else able to get it?

EDIT: Okay, working now, but you have to register an account AND provide a full mailing address and other personal information in order to get the game. Be aware of that.

In any case, the game is only $10(not even on sale) on Steam if you don't want to give that information to a mega-corporation that has in the past created super-soldiers to drain the life-force from the entire planet for profits and evlulz. And before that, created a super-soldier to rip the planet apart for profits and evlulz.

Of course, you can always use a throwaway email address and fake mailing address. $10 isn't cheap for everyone, and it's a cool game to get for free.

Consortium is free at the moment. I'm not sure for how much longer. There's no option to buy so it should be yours if you claim it.

CONSORTIUM is definitely an interesting game. Though I had no idea what was going on half the time, having not played that mobile game that explains the setting.

The latest humble bundle is currently ~$10 for XCOM: Enemy Unknown and all of the DLC plus Civ's 3-5, or for $5 more ($15 total) you also get Beyond Earth and one Civ:BE DLC as well. Considering that with the Long War mod I've put in over 230 hours into XCOM alone, I highly suggest picking it up if you don't have those games already.
