I forgot to mention that if you pledge over $100 to Barkley 2, then you get a cyber dwarf body pillow. :lol:

Also, if you are the first to donate $1000, then they will let you pretend to be Tales of Games in an interview and you can say whatever you want and lie as much as you want. It has the potential to be horrible for their reputation, but a hilarious kickstarter prize.

I've found a wonderful fundraiser currently running on Indiegogo for the Z82 Retrocade. This fundraiser will allow us to finally have a classic arcade here in Central Arkansas run by two of the most passionate arcade professionals I have ever met, Daniel and Terry. Please take a moment to check out the link below and chip in whatever you can to see this project come to life.

Here's a very interesting project that's come about thanks to the THQ bankruptcy:

That's right; they're raising funds to buy the rights to the Homeworld IP.

I don't know if anyone else has a care for the DK series, but I just found this kickstart for a Dungeon Keeper-ish game. I WANT IT.
