Yep, it's yet another PC game sales news post (hey, they are time sensitive). This time we want to alert you to a new indie games bundle deal from developer Lazy 8 Studios. The deal will either net you six or 12 acclaimed indie PC game titles for one low price. You can actually take your pick of two bundles that are each priced at $19.99 each, which is a savings of at least 70 percent off.

One bundle has the titles AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! – A Reckless Disregard for Gravity, BrainPipe, Cogs , Captain Forever, Saira and Space Giraffe. The other bundle contains And Yet It Moves, Auditorium, Osmos, Aztaka, Eufloria, and Machinarium. If you can't decide you can get both bundles and save even more money overall. The mega bundle prices all 12 games together for $29.99. The bundle sale ends on September 22.

If you wanted to get into the indie games scene but were afraid to do so, Direct2Drive has just revised its Indie Games Bundle sale for its customers. For a limited time you can get 10 of the most well known and acclaimed indie games in one shot for just $29.95. That's compared to a price of $134.50 if you had to buy each game individually.

The games in the bundle include World of Goo, Puzzlegeddon, Gish, The Maw, Braid, Cogs, AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! -- A Reckless Disregard for Gravity, Osmos, Machinarium and Crayon Physics Deluxe. All of the above games are good in our opinion and some are true classics. It's a deal that you don't have to steal.

The Direct2Drive download site has offered up bundles of a number of indie games for limited times on a couple of previous occasions. Now the service is doing it again as it puts together 10 of the most well known indie games together in one downloadable package from now until March 12.

The bundle costs just $29.95 which is a massive savings compared to the $134.50 that you would have to spend for each game separately. The list includes the puzzle game Cogs which just won $100,000 in GameStop's first annual Indie Game Challenge. The full list of games in the bundle is below:

Braid
Osmos
World of Goo
Cogs
Machinaruim
The Maw
Crayon Physics Deluxe
Aaaaa!
Puzzlegeddon
Gish

Can't afford to buy the Nexus One? Then maybe you should bypass the Google Phone and try out the new PC game download deals over at both Steam and Direct2Drive. Both PC game download sites have some early week sales on their sites. Even Colt McCoy can't argue with these deals (that's our favorite new name, by the way).

Steam has a mid-week deal on all of the game's in the King's Bounty fantasy strategy-RPG series. All the games in the series are now 75 percent off their normal price until Thursday. Meanwhile Direct2Drive has the indie game title AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! - A Reckless Disregard for Gravity on sale for 50 percent off its normal price until Friday. Also Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War II is on sale for 50 percent off until Jan. 18. In addition a number of games on the site have seen some permanent price cuts. You can check them out right here.

The development team that brought us the downloadable base jumping PC game AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! -- A Reckless Disregard for Gravity is already hard at work on their next title. Today Dejobaan Games revealed their plans for Musorqua. It's a game that the team admits looks an awful lot like their previous title but in fact is a music-puzzle themed project.

The above YouTube video shows off the early prototype gameplay for Musorqua which has you falling through a tube and hitting and connecting with plates and other icons. The idea is that you are building and altering a song as you go along in the game. There's no word on when the game will be released and we suspect it may be a while before it's completed

Today marks the official release of the stunt game, AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! - A Reckless Disregard for Gravity. Going with the occasion is a brand-new demo that gives a taste of some of the game's 80 high altitude levels. The full version can be purchased via online outlets such as Direct2Drive, GamersGate, Impulse, Steam, and WildTangent or through the official website. System requirements are shown after the jump.

"BASE jump through a floating city, creating your own stunts to delight your fans.

You dive off a skyscraper, relying on quick reflexes to negotiate the intricate tangle of girders that make up the floating city. All eyes are on you as the judges mark your score. One hundred points for hugging those exposed struts as you fall. A thousand for planting a kiss on the side of that building. Twisting and turning, you thread the needle between two billboards, earning cheers from your fans.

But while reflexes are important, it's quick thinking that gets you the win. One block away, you spot a crowd of protesters decrying your sport, and make a split second decision. You break off course, stare them straight in the eye, and flip them the finger. They explode into a burst of fury, but the judges absolutely love it, bumping you up to first place. Now all you have to do is to make that landing without ending up a loose sack of broken bones."

The base jumping game with the memorable title AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! - A Reckless Disregard For Gravity (just speaking it gets us winded) has been kicking around for a while thanks to a pre-release demo. But the full game from developer Dejobaan Games is about to come out next week and Steam has a new offer for those who want to pre-order the title.

Simply put your money down now and you get a 10 percent discount off the game's normal Steam price. Also you get access to a free game, The Wonderful End of the World, from the same developer. That's a $9.99 value right there. So in short you buy a game about falling off buildings and get a free game about the end of the world via a mythological demon with the head of a fish. That sounds about right.
