Kickstarter Is Bringing Back Classic Games  

Grant Brünner:

In the past month and a half, we have seen an incredible land rush to utilize Kickstarter to bring back classic game franchises. It started when Double Fine Adventure launched, and ended up raising over three million dollars. Leisure Suit Larry, Wasteland 2, and Shadowrun Returns soon followed. Are they riding the coat tails of Tim Schaefer? Who cares? That doesn’t matter — we’re getting a bunch of crowd-funded games by people who really care about the franchises.

I do like this trend. I just wish there was a Kickstarter to convince even more game developers to do Kickstarters.
