So who wants to be the first one to post this on Waypoint and watch all the kids freak out? :D

Is that the new thing now is to have people donate to get a game? The 3rd time I've seen that in the last month..

For some smaller, niche and nostalgic type games yes. Its been around but recently with Double Fine being hugely successful with it, everyone wants to try.

Yeah seriously, I was just wondering the same thing.

It'll die off. I highly doubt there's a project people can get so jazzed about they'll donate $400,000 in 24 days, unless it's a charity thing, which it's not.

I'm all for it if it gets games made that wouldn't get made otherwise. Especially games like 2D point and click adventures (DoubleFine Adventure), Leisuresuit Larry, and ... well maybe a Shadowrun RPG.

They'll hit their goal. You do know Double Fine was targetting $400k and they got over 3 million right?

My gosh, I didn't know that. There's some dedicated fans out there, tons of respect to them.

The other thing is that it's not just a donation, you're buying the game as well for the minimum pledge amount in most cases. Double Fine Adventure, for example, was $15 for the minimum pledge and you get a digital copy of the game.

Ah alright, that makes a lot more sense.

I bought the Double Fine one and I'm excited to see how it turns out. I think they'll pull it off, but I feel that it'll take 1-2 bad devs that can't deliver to sour the whole thing. Guess we'll see.
 
Play this.

Sing this:
-------
Frame drops keep shittin' up the thread
And just like the noob whose aim is too wide for the spread
Nothin' seems to hit
Those frame drops are shittin' up the thread, we're complainin'

So I just played me some classic Halo one,
And I post I didn't like the way Reach got things done
Engine starts to plod
Those frame drops are shittin' up the thread, we're complainin'

But there's one thing I know
The scrubs they send to meet me won't defeat me
It won't be long til Halo 4 comes to complete me

Frame drops keep shittin' up the thread
But that doesn't mean Halo is doomed, don't be misled
Quittin's not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna freeze the game by dongblainin'
Because you see
Tashi ceiling is three

[really long trumpet section]

Bah I hate "Clips" and those extended trailers! I watch the first trailer and I'm fine! Especially for a movie of this caliber.

I usually am but goddamn this one is looking awesome. I really think it's going to blow away anything they've done so far.

Cmon, great cast and Joss Whedon uniting them? I've had faith in this movie since its inception!

Oh I have too. Hell while most weren't too keen on Iron Man 2 I've loved both of those movies and the Captain America one. So I know this one is so going to blow away all of those by the looks of it.

The actual list from about 2 weeks ago:
1. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
2. Call of Duty: Black Ops
3. FIFA 12
4. Battlefield 3
5. Halo: Reach
6. Modern Warfare 2
7. Mass Effect 3
8. NBA 2K12
9. Skyrim
10. Gears of War 3

Not as bad as your list but still a bit sad.

Halo Reach didn't do it right if u ask me....
COD MOD 2 holding its own still despite very little monitoring and useless DLC. Respect

I'm watching the new Trials Evolution editor videos right now and it makes it really clear that Forge misses some basic things.

You should be able to check the framerate on your map. And not just in Forge but also in custom games because there's a big difference between the two in terms of framerate. A simple option in the gametype settings that shows the FPS in the upper right corner would be great for map testing. Something like an object-density meter would also help greatly.

A undo/redo button would really help too. Would make for less frustrating moments.
