That "Banner Saga" looks very cool and I've kicked in. I still stand by my original post that Kickstarter won't completely toss out big publishers it will sure allow indie gamer makers to get levels of funding that they probably couldn't of in the past.

I think that there is a difference between raising $2 million and raising $50 million that can't be bridged by Kickstarter.

He has the peripherals he needs. He's just looking for the PC itself.

I should mention that we are in Canada so shipping is a consideration. That particular computer is out of stock on newegg.ca. Thanks for the lead though!

Looking for some advice for my brother. He's a graphic designer and is trying to build himself a good PC for doing photoshop work, etc. He said that after doing some research he built a PC for about $1100 but that seemed expensive to me. I know you can build a decent gaming rig for about $800...

I wish Uncharted had a "skip combat" button. As for Bioware, I haven't really enjoyed one of their games in a long while (ME1 was decent) but the quality of their writing has gone down a lot.

This. When I see old NES games on ebay for ridiculously high prices that I used to own (but no longer do) it makes me rage a bit. Same with my old Transformers from the 80s.

I avoid games published by EA wherever possible so I'll pass on this.

They left off my personal favourite. The ending of Pac-Man: Still brings tears to my eyes when I think of how great this ending is. The story is nicely wrapped up, heroes and villains each get their just deserts and there is a real sense of pathos for the player.

When I go to a movie my expectations are that of a one-way medium (the movie is shown to me). When I play a computer game it should be a two way medium (ie: it shows me stuff but I control stuff as well). This "game", based on what I've read in this thread, is like a movie. When it is...

While Steam is pretty much another form of DRM, it still comes off as warm and cuddly DRM.

I think it looks really cool, but I'm waiting for a Steam sale to pick it up.

I've been burned by Paradox enough times to know that you don't buy their games until well after the first patches have come out.

This is my biggest fear when thinking about the future of gaming being all digital and whatnot. I like having a physical copy of a game so that when the zombie apocalypse wipes out the internets I can still play Half Life and Fallout 2.

Hopefully this'll work out. I'm tired of twitch based shooter RPG's in the first person. Dammit, I'm old, cranky and want turn based combat back.

I'm stoked about this. Gave some $$ as well (can't wait to get my signed poster). I like the idea of giving the middle finger to large publishers and making games independently of them. Tim Schafer is the man and Grim Fandango is still probably my favourite game of all time (and the...

Portal 2 was easily the best game I played last year. Good graphics, great writing, great voice acting, cool moments and a funny ending. Throw some awesome co-op on top of that and you have a very memorable gaming experience.

The one screenshot I saw looked like the humans were wearing blue suits leading me to think it was set in the 50s.

Anybody who posts "I never played X-com" should be required by law to buy it and play it. I'm excited about this because a) Firaxis makes awesome games and b) X-Com should always and forever be a turn based isometric style game (except for the globe bits). It looks like they are setting it...

This type of garbage is what is hurting the PC gaming industry.
