Indiegala, Bundle Stars, good ol Humble Bundle?

Personally I've grown to love Bundle Stars. As much as its a pain to let my bank know that i'm buying stuff from England (my bank is really hardcore about fraud protection) they seem to have a good eye for making bundles that have at least a few games I want. Their format is nice too, lets me know if I'm getting a trading card game and has a convenient link to the team page for it.

I still like Humble Bundles option on who gets paid what amount, but if their selection is trash and I skip it they don't get anything anyway.

Also here is a giveaway because I didn't know about bundles, trading, things like tremorgames, hell even bitcoins, till I came here. Great community of knowledgeable folks.

Humble Bundle, so far i've bought 3 bundles from them (Jumbo Bundle, Codemasters Weekly and SEGA Weekly), and none from the others, because they offer rather crappy or unknown games.

Yeah thats how I felt about bundle stars, now i feel like the games are mostly unknown sure, but a good chunk of what I've bought has been really fun.

Bundle Stars is my favorite based on the selections they come up with, they also make it easier than Humble bundle to get the actual keys if you want to gift them. Humble Bundle used to be my fave, but I didn't really try any of the others prior to that. I do like the ease HB gives you with adding games into your own account without having to enter each key. I do use Indiegala at times, but usually I find the games are ones I either do not want, or already have...although lately that has been the case with HB also. Honestly it depends on what is being offered. I wish I had the spare cash to buy many of each one as they come out to support the charities and such.....but alas I cannot.

I just recently got a job so hopefully that wont be the case anymore but I know what you mean, that was the nice part about HB and Bundle Stars is with HB the price slider and bundle stars if you're on the ball about it the price is almost always $2

Selection, layout, customer service -- Humble, obviously. Anyone who tries to put them down likely has recurring issues with people/things "selling out" and a preoccupation with being "underground," "indie," and whiney.

Humble Bundle has usually well known games so at least it's not risky buying their bundles, even if I skip most of their weekly bundle. BundleStars has 2-3 good games in each bundle (One Finger Death Punch <3). I bought some bundles from Indiegala, their bundles are average, sometimes with a good game in it. Groupees & Indieroyale are worth checking, sometimes they have an interesting bundle.

GetLoadedGo is pretty good (but not very indie). Besides that Humble Bundle is the only bundle that is fairly consistent quality/value wise.

I kind of disagree with that. Since I was informed about bundles I've only bought 1 Bundle and 1 weekly from them, the rest have been either weak or books n such. But I'm new so maybe I just missed the good ol days.

So if i missed when Humble bundle was consistently good that implies that it is no longer consistently good, so why is it still most peoples favorite?

That's entirely a matter of subjective opinion. Humble Bundle tends to be far more diverse in their offerings, which I know makes a lot of people complain, though they do still maintain a fairly consistent level of quality in everything they offer, even when it's a form or genre that one doesn't personally care for. I started buying from there in December, and have a diverse enough taste in games to have bought almost every bundle, and have been very happy. Yet, there are some that don't interest me or I don't have the technology to really enjoy. That doesn't stop me from recognizing the quality of the bundles for those into it, and knowing many people were made very happy by it. So, THAT'S why it remains a favorite. They please everyone a great deal with the perfect bundles for them, at some point. I am even 99% certain there'll be more really major AAA bundles in the future, for those insistent that they are the only suitable bundles.

Humble Bundle - I think they were first and they have awesome games to offer.

Groupees does a lot of great stuff, and the games they bundle are often fun and many surprisingly good, even if obscure sometimes. The fact that they have a lot of build-a-bundles and very big bundles certainly don't hurt either, especially when they're running several at once for different charities around the world.

Bundle Stars does usually have good value bundles but I've only been interested in 1-2 games they have ever offered, unfortunately. This is the first time I've seriously considered buying their bundle and it's for a single game, so I'll probably just wait and see if there's a group buy I can get in on.

Humble is #1 for me, and Groupees had some great bundles too.

I like Humble Bundle the most, because most of their bundles come with extras such as Soundtracks and DRM-free versions, as well as the sliders so I can give all to the devs if I please. Bundlestars tends to have many tempting bundles, but often only one or 2 games from those appeals to me.

Humble Bundle followed by Groupees. Indie Royale had good bundles early on, but nowadays they're mostly uninteresting. BundleStars has good bundles occasionally, but I already have all the games in them.
