The shocking news about Borderlands… What could it be? A two-fer? A three-fer? Whoa!

Buying games, playing games, doing good– all at the same time? Is it true that gamers can be the Ones to Save the World? Well, if the Humble Indie Bundle ignites a whole flood of gamer-initiated philanthropy, then maybe so… But for now, there are certainly some impressive statistics gleaned from the Humble Indie Bundle [...]
