I paid good money for this Dynex!
I'm in for $150. I want to see them hit 1.9 million. More music is always my weakness.

They're "supported by Xbox One" so I imagine Microsoft is helping fund development. After all, 900k isn't enough of a chunk on it's own to properly undertake a project like this

Backed for the CE. Hope it meets funding.
What is with Sony not helping with funding?

Avellone is in? HOLY SHIT! I can't donate because I don't have an international credit card, but once this is out, I'm buying it.
System Shock is a game I wanted to play since always.

Yeah, those are SS2 features and I like them there and expect them in SS3
But I like how much more simpler and straightforward SS is
and it also bothers me how so many games just have to have rpg/rpg lite mechanics even when they aren't necessary (Doom '16)
well, whatever
I might as well consider this a reboot instead of a remake then
ammo types were already in SS
and with all the stuff I had on hand I was a walking vending machine

Never played the original, but I hope it gets backed for all the fans.
Well microsoft is one of their partners, so i think it's safe to say the are funding some of it.

No PS4 version is a disappointment. I was ready to drop some cash.
I'll wait a bit to see if we'll get that OSX/Linux stretch goal at least.

I think I'll go in at the end of the campaign. Only want to back if it hits 1.7m
Can you not back via PayPal?
Okay, thanks for letting us know.

Unity engine on consoles though...

I've never had the chance to play a System Shock title before (and have always wanted to), so being able to play it in a modern form would be fantastic.
I feel like there should be some specific code written for known platform warriors that makes it seem like all games are being announced for the platform they don't own.

Developer launches a Kickstarter to generate funds for a complete remake of one of the most acclaimed games ever. First two pages of the thread full of YouTube comments-grade fanboy nonsense.
Paypal won't show up until they hit their 900k goal. If they don't hit that goal, they won't get the funding and paypal won't count towards that as far as kickstarter is concerned.

TBH at this stage its probably best to assume this is a scorpio game that may or may not come to XB1 depending on how MS's rules go.
Anyway toss me in with the "cool but Kickstarters that are already slaves to console exclusivity deals and go suck a lemon" crowd. Was dumb when Sony did it. Its dumb here. Downloading the demo though. Never touched SS1
Oh, didn't even see this.

Nice! This is the first Kickstarter I've backed. Good to see the X1 get some love for a change.

As someone who missed out on the System Shock series, I'm probably going to have to back this.

Kickstarter console exclusives, what a time to be alive.
Just glad Yu picked Sony.
Going to check out the demo soon, I played the original and it was kinda neat back then.

It's saying "Were open to other platforms in the future." on the kickstarter page.
Just tried the demo, but it's running really bad on my pc. Maybe 5fps.

Sigh....
Can we stop with the fanboy crap (this isn't directed at just you JetSet).
Can we just be happy System Shock is returning?
Demo is better than I'd thought it'd be.
I like how it gives you text for whatever you right click on like a holdover from Adventure games, which it probably was at the time.
My biggest gripe is that parts of the environment looks like that 3DNES emulator. You can still see how it was segmented into square tiles rather than a flowing, fully-realised environment,

Well young man, if you had looked at their campaign page you might have seen this:
Microsoft is providing them some kind of assistance, most likely financial.
What does "support" mean here? Because I highly doubt Steam is giving any kind of assistance.

Demo performance was bad, bad Unity.

Is Steam down ? Can't get online.
really no PS4? That's a shame.
EDIT: I see, they just want to focus on a few platforms first. But I can't back if it doesn't support my platform.

I suspect it just means they have something to do with the game. They're selling the game on Steam, GOG, and Humble; the game's built on Unity, etc.
Probably no monetary support from anyone other than (potentially) MS.
Steam is by having the demo up. Most likely steam is letting this go up and not have to go through greenlight or whatever the heck that crap is.

Erm... Shenmue 3 had a kickstarter campaign...

Interested in trying the demo before I get home. Curious how it could even work on consoles or dual stick pads. I know it's a remake, but it'd need to be a big overhaul.

A consoles version? No thanks
Would have backed if it was pc only, like it should have been
