That was actually a really good manual, and taught me some new things! I may have glossed over it on my first reading, but did you cover economic issues directly?

Was it 'Murder on the Zinderneuf'? It randomly put together the crime, the clues, and the culprit. You questioned people and searched rooms for clues, and finally named your prime suspect....

Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space is fun. It's meant to be a casual version of the 'Epic Space Game', and succeeds. You fly around and have adventures and collect stuff and random encounterize...

I'm mostly interested in a post mortem of this particular bundle, though it likely wont happen. Is the money to THQ really gonna help them, or is it to be immediately consumed by their massive debt?...

This bundle brings up a whole host of interesting questions. For one, does Steam really benefit from hundreds of thousands of people suddenly owning 4+ huge AAA games downloadable exclusively from...

You know, I'm biased because I could give a rat's-ass about multiplayer, but what Cortex Command appears to have done that is truly impressive and rare is to have a competent AI implemented.

I can't speak for the developer, but I gather it was a success story as far as 'sold only from own site' games go.

I was just playing Driver, and wondering why the hell it was freezing every minute -- because I'd bought it a few weeks ago and played through the entire game without a problem. This was the start of...

I'll concur. I had the exact same reaction to the zombies.

Well Xenonauts is up now too, but that wasn't really a prediction. I personally hope there is something from the old Infocom people. I think they'd do well with a new text adventure, with bonus...

Whoo! Called it!

My only worry is that the developers haven't proven a talent for real strategic combat -- for instance, the whole Fantasy Wars saga is timed battles with mission-based AI. No real computer strategy...

This is a swell game, FYI. Though you'll die like a dirty dog quite frequently.

This is a really weird premise for a thread. That said, the actual game looks pretty cool.

I would say that most people don't know what goes into putting together a game, and the money involved. A smaller project is likelier, in my opinion, to show a return than a tactical squad-based...

Little people trying new stuff are getting buried under the old-school developer nostalgia-fest, and the...

I did kinda like 'Murder on the Zinderneuf' ...

Pong is definitely a great old franchise to bring back. There used to be lines around the block for the arcade version!

This one slays me:

Most of the comments are inquiries as to how they made their goal so quickly, and from a...

Leisure Suit Larry! Dammit, I should have guessed that one.

OK, I'll predict that someone/someones from Infocom will try a new text adventure, maybe based on a previous title like 'Leather...

Who's the next notable developer to try their luck at Kickstarter? I gather that the makers of the coming X-Com-a-like Xenonauts are about to give it a shot.
My current prediction: Carmageddon...

Thank you! I'm just now feeling 42 days of stress finally lift.

I'm sorry, I'm way too beat right now to search around, but wasn't there a group making a full-on freeware 'realistic' racing simulator?

Herzog would have the best 'Let's Play' video ever.

Wait, someone didn't like Samarost? Jesus.
