Buying every great soundtrack that comes out can get expensive. But don’t you fret. The Indie Game Music Bundle 2 is available now and it will blow your mind. For an amount of your choice under $10, you can get five soundtracks (including Jamestown: Legend of the Lost Colony and Machinarium).

But that’s not all. Pay $10 or more and you’ll get more than three times as many albums! And not just any albums. You’ll get Mighty Switch Force (one of my top soundtracks of 2011) and Shatter (one of 2009′s best) along with a ton of other great stuff. The more sales the bundle gets, the more albums unlock for contributors of $10 or more.

We get it, though. Money is tight. Maybe you don’t have any cash to spare on this sweet deal. Well, we don’t want you to miss out. We have a download code of the standard bundle for one lucky commenter. All you have to do is tell us your favorite indie game in the comment section and you could be win the bundle yourself.

2009 was a busy year for me. I had just started a new job, I launched WingDamage with my bro and suckered a few friends into writing for us. A ton of amazing games came out. Here I present to you my personal favorites. This is my top ten, and it doesn’t quite line up with the majority of other people’s that I have found online. That’s just fine with me.

Some releases, while I liked what I played, I just didn’t have enough time to get a good enough impressions to rank them one way or the other. That said, I give you my top ten games of the year.
