My slow-clap processor made it into this thing. So we have that.<\/p>\n<p>But enough preamble, here&#8217;s what you can get in your potato sack this time around:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1\u20262\u20263.. KICK IT!<\/li>\n<li>AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!!<\/li>\n<li>Amnesia<\/li>\n<li>AudioSurf<\/li>\n<li>BIT.TRIP BEAT<\/li>\n<li>Cogs<\/li>\n<li>Defense Grid: The Awakening<\/li>\n<li>Killing Floor<\/li>\n<li>RUSH<\/li>\n<li>Super Meat Boy<\/li>\n<li>The Ball<\/li>\n<li>The Wonderful End Of The World<\/li>\n<li>Toki Tori<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So, basically, exactly the same games that were in the potato sack last time, although they&#8217;re even cheaper now &#8211; you can get the whole lot for just $19.99. To put this in some perspective, sold separately you&#8217;d pay $74.87 for this collection of games. What a savings!<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps more significantly, though, the last Potato Sack sale was part of a Portal 2 alternate reality game, preceding the game&#8217;s launch. Is Valve prepping an announcement about something? You read that wild speculation here first.<\/p>\n<h5>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/sub\/15030\/\" target=\"_blank\">Steam<\/a><\/h5>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Related Articles<\/h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/39467-humble-indie-bundle-v-adds-braid-super-meat-boy-lone-survivor.html\">Humble Indie Bundle V adds Braid, Super Meat Boy, Lone Survivor<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/39459-true-open-worlds-are-the-opposite-of-fun-says-the-unfinished-swan-dev.html\">True open worlds are \u201cthe opposite of fun\u201d, says The Unfinished Swan dev<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Indie game news\" href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/tag\/indie\"><strong>All indie game news<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cheap as chips!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":159,"featured_media":39640,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[31,553,1626,4966,85,697],"class_list":["post-39623","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-active","tag-indie","tag-portal-2","tag-potato-sack","tag-steam","tag-valve"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39623","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/159"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39623"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39623\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":39642,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39623\/revisions\/39642"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39640"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39623"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39623"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39623"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
