I hope they show up in the ubuntu software center. They are pain to find (after installation) using the .deb files.

Lone Survivor and Super Meat Boy should be there by the end of the day, Braid already is.

Considering I still haven't seen Psychonauts in the software center, I am prepared to be patient for these new games.

I believe Psychonauts is being delayed due to its massive size. I would not be surprised if there are technical hurdles for packaging it that need to be overcome for the Ubuntu team. We've actually received some support messages that certain file systems cannot actually contain a 4.5 GB file, which is a new one to me!

These new games, on the other hand, should be finished tonight.

Super meat boy was already there but cost some 6 dollars or something. Ubuntu software center seems like an alpha.

I am glad you guys integrated with this because I want the software center to be a successful product but are you as frustrated by it as the users are?

Well, if you are on a FAT32 file system (e.g. often used for SD cards, USB Keys etc.), then you cannot store files which exceed 4gb in size if IIRC. Please correct me if I am wrong!
