IIRC that $70 million included a lot of research, including trips to China and work on engine.

No Turkish Cypriots Allowed

Well, to be fair I don't think anyone had expected the funding to go that record-breakingly fast.

This wasn't right after the conference? Anyway, I think with modern technology it wouldn't be completely impossible to make Shenmue 3 on Kickstarter funds alone if they made 4-5 million. Considering it takes place in rural China, compare it to Vanishing of Ethan Carter with minigames and kung fu.

I think they disclosed it right after the Sony conference? Would've been awkward to announce right on stage that the Kickstarter was basically a test to see whether you'd put your money where your mouth is. Also I think they tried to get the message across in the pitch video... but frankly it was just terrible.

there'll be the choice of putting teddy bears or sporks inside Rock-It-Launcher at least

if its popular it sucks except when i liek it too

I'd expect 1+2 to be remastered and released on PC.

Cool I'll use them as ammo in Rock-It-Launcher.

Any AAA projects Obsidian is working on?

We could use them against ISIS and solve two problems at once.

Wow almost 3 million and not even 24 hours have past.

Avellone has been ghost writing for Bethseda for years. Guess Obsidian found out.

Desu Ex looks terrible. Tomb Raider looks okay.

Ironic considering Dishonored is first person game and character doesn't speak.

Always the same platitudes about Bethseda being repeated again and again.

Kickstarter pitch video was frankly terrible, future updates will need to be much better if they want to reach 5-10 million. Of course getting announced at E3 helps a lot.

"Last Guardian trailer" I watn Unendliche Geschichte arrpeegee

Cloud's buster sword will look even stupider in full grorious HD But Tifa's b00bies will at least no longer be pyramids Oh, and Aerith dies.

I bet one of the $10,000 backers is Ragnar Tornquist. Massive fanboy of the games.

Big publishers will see Shenmue fly through 2 million dollars and perhaps now consider allowing Kickstarter for other IPs they are holding hostage. Alpha Protolol 2, Beyond Good & Evil 2, Heavy Metal F.A.K.K.2 2, Oni 2, etc.

well I'm in for 100 doritos. Only two good games I had on Dreamcast. RE: Code Veronica was hilariously bad.
