The latest pay-what-you-want compilation from Humble Bundle collects a wide variety of PC-combatible Neo Geo classics from SNK, and many of the featured games are playable within the Firefox and Chrome internet browsers.

The Humble Neo Geo Bundle features multiple entries in SNK’s long-running Metal Slug and The King of Fighters franchises, along with a handful of lesser-known greats released throughout the 1990s.

All bundle buyers receive DRM-free copies of SNK’s landmark one-on-one fighting games Art of Fighting 2, Fatal Fury Special, Samurai Shodown II, and The King of Fighters 2000, along with the kaiju brawler King of the Monsters, run-and-gun shooter Metal Slug, side-scrolling beat-’em-up Sengoku 3, and arcade-styled sports sim Baseball Stars 2.

All eight games are playable on Windows, Mac, and Linux platforms, and can be downloaded and played directly from Humble Bundle’s website via in-browser emulation software produced by DotEmu and officially licensed from GameTap.

Donors that exceed the bundle’s average purchase price will also get a collection of four .mp3-format soundtracks, the original Metal Slug, sequel Metal Slug 3, one-on-one fighter The Last Blade, competitive shmup Twinkle Star Sprites, overhead-view shooter Shock Troopers, horizontally scrolling shoot-’em-up Pulstar, golfing sim Neo Turf Masters, and The King of Fighters ’98 Ultimate Match Final Edition.

Customers who pitch in $10 or more will unlock the bundle’s final rewards tier, which adds digital copies of sequels Shock Troopers 2nd Squad and Metal Slug X, in addition to the fighting games Samurai Shodown V Special, Garou: Mark of the Wolves, and The King of Fighters 2002 Ultimate Match.

Bundled copies of Metal Slug, Metal Slug X, Metal Slug 3, The King of Fighters ’98, and The King of Fighters 2002 include digital codes redeemable for Windows-compatible Steam versions.

The Humble Neo Geo Bundle will be available for purchase through December 22.

Xbox Game Pass deals are reportedly drying up, and that’s bad news for indies

Ask most players why they subscribe to Xbox Game Pass, and they'll probably mention day-one Xbox exclusives. But developers have long viewed the service differently. For many indie studios, a Game Pass deal wasn't just extra exposure — it was financial security before launch.

Landing a Game Pass deal often meant guaranteed revenue before a game even launched, reducing the financial gamble of releasing an indie title into an increasingly crowded market. Now, that safety net may not be as dependable as it once was.

I just played Ghost of Tsushima on a phone. I never thought I’d see this day and I’m not regretting this misadventure
Running Ghost of Tsushima on the Red Magic 11S Pro almost feels wrong
Red Magic 11S Pro running Ghost of Tsushima

I have tested plenty of gaming phones, but nothing quite prepared me for watching Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut boot up on the Red Magic 11S Pro. This was not cloud gaming or something like Remote Play from a PlayStation sitting somewhere else in the house. I used GameHub, linked it with Steam, and after some trial and error, had the PC version of Ghost of Tsushima running on a phone--and it was far more playable than I expected.

And yes, it looked as ridiculous as it sounds. Seeing Jin Sakai on a phone screen with a GameHub overlay, virtual shoulder buttons, and a live FPS counter sitting on top made the whole setup seem a lot more viable.

Forget console wars. Steam Machine may help kill lazy PC gaming ports
Valve’s expensive mini PC could become PC gaming’s new baseline
Steam Machine with Steam Controller

Valve’s Steam Machine has become easy to dunk on. The price starts well above current consoles, and the hardware sits somewhere between entry-level and mid-range gaming PCs rather than a monster rig. Early reviews have also talked about how demanding games need upscaling, trimmed settings, and realistic expectations.

With the ongoing memory crisis, it sounds like a rough time to bring a PC to the couch. Though the Steam Machine doesn't need to beat high-end gaming PCs or the big consoles. Its purpose was different from the start. And what really makes it better is how it could shift the PC gaming segment entirely.
