doesn't telltale have the rights to that or something?

Disney currently own MI rights after buying LucasArts last year, so that is probably the end of that

of course on the plus side that means there's a possibility of disney world recreating the le chuck ride from m2 in fantasyland

Whoa, I'd kick money to that if Parish is on all the time

The New Jack Mormons! (kingfish), Thursday, 28 March 2013 12:23 (eleven years ago) link

I (greatly) prefer Parish in text form only. But, I kind of want to support Ray Barnholt who had that great 1up soundtrack podcast.

early trailer for a game currently being developed by one man, Lionel Gallat, who worked in film for 15 years animating the likes of "Shark Tale", "Despicable Me" etc. like a Disney Demons Souls!

Al Lowe is coming out of retirement to make Leisure Suit Larry games again

the bitcoin comic (thomp), Tuesday, 28 May 2013 23:29 (ten years ago) link

he was doing that like three years ago!

i didn't even give much of a fuck that you were mod (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 28 May 2013 23:55 (ten years ago) link

it's a quote from the first post in this thread

the bitcoin comic (thomp), Wednesday, 29 May 2013 00:11 (ten years ago) link

xps lol @ scott kurtz being involved

then again i guess it makes sense as TenNapel outed himself as a conservative crank iirc

Nhex, Wednesday, 29 May 2013 00:27 (ten years ago) link

ah, well yes.

i didn't even give much of a fuck that you were mod (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 29 May 2013 01:00 (ten years ago) link

Yeah, TenNapel is one of those guys whose personal opinions are absolutely something you never ever want to get near. Games are great, but everything else.....bleah.

Hockey Drunk (kingfish), Wednesday, 29 May 2013 03:17 (ten years ago) link

i had to share my pain; once you see that stuff you can't unsee it

Nhex, Wednesday, 29 May 2013 03:32 (ten years ago) link

sleepingbag, Wednesday, 29 May 2013 03:41 (ten years ago) link

Double Fine going back to the well (for an entirely different project)

0808ɹƃ (silby), Friday, 31 May 2013 02:54 (ten years ago) link

tbh I totally want the game that I imagine it will be, but considering the ship date is a year and a half from now and it'll reach its goal through the efforts of Other People I don't know that it's worth backing…especially since I've not been digging into the backer-exclusive Double Fine Adventure updates at all.

0808ɹƃ (silby), Friday, 31 May 2013 02:55 (ten years ago) link

man, this looks like the sort of thing i would drop three bills on and then have a hard time figuring out where to put after the first month.

Even thinking about playing Skyrim on that thing is tiring me out. All that running...

As a promo event for their latest Kickstarter, the DoubleFine guys are streaming a Small World(the board game) session, with a thinner Tim Schafer, Brad Muir, and Chris Remo(from Idle Thumbs)

the Kickstarted Shadowrun Returns is out on Steam.

And here's what happened when a dude canceled his project that was fully funded:

turns out I met this dude.

one month passes...

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mightyno9/mighty-no-9

my first reaction was "man, so shameless" but after watching the video and reading the page it's well done... may back this one. no doubt it will be huge by the time it's all said and done (2 days and it's already 55% of the $900k)

Nhex, Sunday, 1 September 2013 17:25 (ten years ago) link

One of the most well-done kickstarter proposals i've seen.

I do dig the Ico meets Swords & Sorcery aesthetic. it's already tripled its modest goal

one month passes...

not asking for enough money for the amount of staff they want to carry for the next year, too many physical rewards for a primarily digital product, not a particularly clear-headed risks/challenges section…smells risky to me.

Star Citizen, born on Kickstarter, passed $40 million in funding pledges today.

Congratulations! And my condolences. (Sanpaku), Tuesday, 11 March 2014 02:13 (ten years ago) link

I've never played Shaq-Fu, but it's always had a massive amount of hate directed to it. Seems like it was released too late (fighting games being kinda old post-MK2) and also ahead of its time, like it was already the kind of game that could get funded on Kickstarter.
