Posted this in the Steam thread but figured it's valid here too:

Anybody interested in the old Road Rash games? They're trying to make a new one!!

Saw that one a while back, the team did not really inspire confidence in me though.

Huge fan of the N64 Road Rash.

Interesting thing happened with this, it actually manged to get funded. Might be out of pity but hey I'm sure they'll take it. Not too many projects have their biggest day on day 29

Pretty good editorial from them about some of their mistakes:

Also the article mentioned some of the mixed responses to the Ouya. Has anyone here seen the dev model yet in person? I suspect most of the negative reaction will be from people who had inappropriately high expectations.

I know it's not for a game, but what do you guys think about the Penny Arcade kickstarter?

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...ontent-the-ret

They set the goal at $10, because they had no idea how much they would raise and setting the goal so low guaranteed that they would be able to take the money.

NeoGaf is not happy about this.

[SniperHF]

I seem to recall them doing this before.

Fake edit: Yep

Except they had a much higher goal. So I think the $10 goal is stupid and a gimmick, they knew they'd get some money.

A new Jagged Alliance is trying to get made. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...ance-flashback

Problem is they did such a terrible job at launch that it's probably not going to make it. And really, who wants a JA game that only cost $350,000 to make anyway? Seems like a hugely wasted opportunity.

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

JA2 may be my favorite game ever. Put so many hours into it.

[Captain Awesome]

Yeah I think it's amazing, and I can't think of a game in its genre that comes close to topping it.

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

I love turn based RPG's. Stoked for shadowrun. Wanted a game like dead state for awhile. If its even average I'll love it.
