Latest Humble Bundle, the Sid Meiers bundle. I have a thing for Civilization games, fond memories of Civ 4 back in the day, so this was a good opportunity to pick Civ 3 and 4 complete editions up.

Currently you get Civ 5 with all the DLC, Civ 4 complete, Civ 3 complete, Ace Patrol 2 and Railroads for $15, which is a great deal outside of a steam sale.

I got Civ V a while ago from some giveaway, but I still haven't even played it yet. :scared:

Got the Curve Indie Bundle for $22 NZD on both the PS3 and Vita. I've been wanting to play Thomas Was Alone for quite a while, and getting it along with Lone Survivor, Proteus and Stealth Inc. is worth it, I think. 👍

Finally got a new phone, sick to the teeth of half arsed Android devices and I'm just not a massive fan of the iPhone...loving it so far. Rapid response. :D

How is it for typing messages? Are the buttons too small or close to each other?

You don't get all the DLC with the Civ5 however. Someone pointed that out in the game deals section of reddit. http://www.reddit.com/r/GameDeals/comments/1x0aoy/humble_sid_meier_bundle_pwyw_for_civilization_iii/(how do you change the link to whatever words you want? Can't yet see that....)

I would actually like to buy this although apparently its not valid in China as of yet. I could use the VPN for UK or US, but its just a little bit extra hassle. Kinda odd it wasn't yet available.

I also got this but only paid $8.50. Didn't need the other DLC.
Currently giving away the code for Civ 3, 4 and Ace patrol on a thread in the PC Gaming section.

It works amazing, best keyboard I have used on a portable device. The operating system is awesome too.

That is slightly disturbing, I've had it since October and clocked around 430 hours :lol:

Once you're in, there is no escape. Especially with friends online.

Odd, when I got BNW a while back it came with all the DLC up to then, ignoring scrambled map packs. Shame it doesn't work in China :odd:

Ok most recent purchases. Surprisingly all cycling related. :dopey:
I sold a couple of items on ebay and got a fair bit more than I was expecting so I bought these.

Carbon pedals to replace the current alloy ones I have that are starting to look a little worse for ware.

Cannondale vest for when the weather starts to cool off a bit.

Both items were bought at a big discount from the recent chain reaction cycles sale. I really should un-subscribe from them.

And a new jersey.
My wife was kind enough to recently give me an e-voucher from my favourite store and the decision was easy as I have always wanted one but wasn't prepared to stump up the price for it.
Rapha classic jersey in black.

It's by and far the most comfortable and well fitting jersey I own (bloody well should be for the price) and apart from my bike is now my favourite piece of cycling kit.
 
I'm just posting this as it will be purchased next week.

Moto G - 8GB.

This is my first Android so if any of you have recommendations for apps, skins, or whatever else let me know.

Went ahead and jumped over to the Apple boat after using numerous friends' iPhones and deciding that I liked the interface better. I tired of the struggle to fit my Note II inside my pockets, too. This phone's small and light enough that I forget I'm carrying it.

The note II is just stupid big. I'm fine with a smaller phone like a HTC One or something of similar size.
 
5S right?
I have one too.

Sure is.

I liked it for the ease of reading things on it, but the iPhone's nicer display quality makes reading just as easy. Being able to easily slide it in and out of my pocket is a bit plus.

Yeah. I like the iPhone but they're just expensive for me because I have a contract-less plan so I have to buy phones unlocked. How do you like iOS 7?

I actually prefer iOS 6, but only for aesthetic reasons. I don't have much experience using it, so I really don't know what the technical differences.
