    If you enjoy modern takes on classic gameplay formulas, the latest Humble Flash Bundle has a lot to offer with pay-what-you-want copies of Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures, Full Bore, and more. Pay $1 or more for Humble's Modern Retro bundle and you'll get Steam codes for the Oregon Trail-spoofing shoot-'em-up Super Amazing Wagon Adventure, side-scrolling wild hog sim Full Bore, and hack-and-slash action game Tiny Barbarian DX. Purchases totaling $6 or more will also grant access to the retro-styled multiplayer RPG NEStalgia and the foul-mouthed platformer Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures. The Modern Retro bundle will only be available through tomorrow, and proceeds benefit the American Red Cross and Child's Play Charity. [Image: FreakZone Games]

    Are WoW's battles just not random enough for you? Does DCUO look a little too three-dimensional? Do the modern trappings of MMOs genuinely bring you down? Ben Mallahan has created a delightful, free-to-play solution to your dilemma: NEStalgia, a Dragon Quest-esque classic RPG with some built-in MMO functionality, like player grouping and a billion super esoteric, hard-to-collect pieces of armor and weaponry. You can download the game for free on NEStalgia's official site, or check out a bunch of gameplay videos on its YouTube page. We'd suggest starting with the trailer posted after the jump!
