Yeah, half, if not more, of games in my Steam account that I will never touch came from all kinds of bundles. I did play the original Unreal though earlier last year:)
$15 is about what you'd pay total for Tomb Raider, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, and Sleeping Dogs at their historic lows, so adding in those other games makes this a pretty good deal. They always add more games, too.
This is an amazing bundle - i've bought both square enix bundles, with any overlaps going to my step-son's steam account.
I'd recommend it just for Deus Ex, Tomb Raider, and sleeping dogs (too bad it's not the definitive version). Those 3 are pretty good games. Hitman Absolution was okay - Deus Ex uses the same game engine I think, but I thought Deus was more fun.
So, it's a Square Enix bundle that doesn't feature any of Square Enix's most popular franchises? No Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest? Both franchises have numerous PC ports. In the case of Final Fantasy, a whole lot of them.
This would have been an Eidos bundle, if Square Enix hadn't all but stopped using that name. All of the games in this bundle were Eidos franchises (Hitman, Deus Ex, Tomb Raider, Kane & Lynch). Sleeping Dogs was released after Square Enix acquired Eidos but has a more American/European signature than the Japanese games you're referring to. That's a different part of Square Enix. So don't expect any FF or Dragon Quest games to be added later.

I paid $5 for each of those titles. $4.99 is as low as they get and that is what I paid for each.sweenish - Wednesday, February 18, 2015 - link
Deus Ex has been lower. In the last two weeks it has been $4. On steam.Mr Perfect - Tuesday, February 17, 2015 - link
So what happens if you have one of the games already? You end up with a Steam code that is of no use to you?JarredWalton - Wednesday, February 18, 2015 - link
You can always gift it to a friend. Or try to sell it I suppose?thel33ter - Wednesday, February 18, 2015 - link
You get a humble gift link, which you can email to a friend. They stopped doing Steam keys a while back, except the Star Wars bundle last week.JarredWalton - Wednesday, February 18, 2015 - link
This one definitely does Steam keys -- I've got a couple extras for games I already own.erple2 - Wednesday, February 18, 2015 - link
The last several humble bundles I've used have used steam codes, so I'm not sure what you mean.I think I bought the one before the star Wars bundle from the last time.

I'm only aware of FF7, 8, and 13 having PC ports. Are there others?Redstarr1 - Tuesday, February 24, 2015 - link
