minalim: One of them is likely to be a really big RPG. And there's not many of those available on their platforms. I would guess Depths of Peril or Eschalon, but these could be it too:

Avadon, or his older games
Some of the games from indinera.com
Aztaka
Din's Curse

or maybe even Mark Leung's Revenge of the Bitch, which looks awesome if you play while being not exactly sober.
Please be this...

carnival73: I also thought that if they immediately got several Daddy Warbucks contributers in a row that price could drop below $2.99.
Those people are more likely to pick their moments carefully.

Preorder? Why not.

But I think that won't be good for them, some people won't pay more because they don't know what they'll get.
It's obviously Terraria. It's one of the largest indie games, both in size, scale and how big the game was on release. Also, it hasn't been featured in a bundle yet, so it's perfect.

Which is cool, because I never got Terraria.

It could be, but as far as I know Terraria is a) Steam Only and b) has had so many sales that I don't know if they'd even want to be featured in a bundle.

That being said, I wouldn't be surprised to see some kind of Minecraft inspired clone making its way in.

Of course, if it is Terraria, get ready for at least one giveaway.

PenutBrittle: You can buy the bundle for a minimum of $3.99 USD starting now, but you don't get to see what you bought until launch day. The minimum stays at exactly $3.99. On launch day, it starts at the price of $2.99 and goes up.

spindown: Why would anyone preorder at a price of $4 without knowing what games will be included when the price on launch day is $3? That doesn't make any sense to me.
This. Preordering doesn't make any sense to me without knowing what I am buying. What if I already have all 4 games? Would they give the money back?
I confess: when I first heard the name "Terraria" I was hoping that it was a sequal to Aquaria.

PenutBrittle: The Really Big is referring to something else (Game world? Content? Longivity?).
It may be true but what was the difficult in the last bundle?

Getting the page to load. So, this new one must have embedded wmv on the page or something.

Excactly, I guess the big part in "The Really Big Bundle" refers to more games than usual, maybe six at start. I wouldn't take it for a clue to any specific game.

And as I will probably pay my usual 10 bucks (if the games are good) I will have all the time in the world to buy this bundle...

Edit: Forget what I said, from the open letter:

"(Incidentally, 'Really Big' in its title is a reference to one of the included games and the scope/genre of the others, rather than it being a massive 1000-in-1 pack!)"

I think the name "Difficult 2nd Bundle" was a reference to "Difficult 2nd Album", and not related to the actual content of the bundle.

Actually, from the open letter:
Incidentally, 'Really Big' in its title is a reference to one of the included games and the scope/genre of the others, rather than it being a massive 1000-in-1 pack!

Probably it's also hinting at Really Big Sky, as already mentioned.

Fate of the World is pretty difficult.

So we've determined Really Big Sky and probably one or more big indie RPG. Not regretting the prepurchase so far.

Baslisk Games will start tomorrow a sale, so it's very likely Eschalon 1 is in the bundle and he hopes you buy Eschalon 2 from his website. While Avadon is very new, Jeff Vogel expirments with Avadon the different sale systems, so with all this crazy sales on amazon, gamersgate and steam so far it's very likely for me.
Don't know where people are getting the RPG part, that's nowhere in the hints. Also highly doubt it's Terraria. They have a content patch coming on December 1st so they can simply have a promo sale on Steam rather than get a $1 or less from these sales. Also, apparently from their latest twitter it won't be launching until next week so that would be after Thanksgiving (U.S.) -- they probably realize they would get drowned out in the Black Friday madness.
