Brian Fargo Turning To Kickstarter For Wasteland 2!

http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2012/02/16/brian-fargo-turning-to-kickstarter-for-wasteland-2/

The founder of Interplay is looking to make Wasteland 2! Wasteland was the original inspiration for the Fallout series. Let's make this happen!

Wasteland 2 will be a sequel to the amazingly popular 1988 RPG Wasteland and the post-apocalyptic predecessor to the Fallout Series.

For a pledge of as little as $15 you can support this project - and get a full copy of the game on release - a serious savings from the retail price when this game launches.  Enjoy!

Awesome! - I am in for $15 - but I am seriously considering upping that to $50 for the box and real cloth map!

I'd love to see this be a runaway success - it is going well but we want to keep the momentum going - the more seed money - the better the game!

100% Funded at $900,000 in under 48 hours - and still climbing - already over a millon - should hit another one before it goes live!

w000t!!!

There is still time to get in on this history making project - pledge up to $50 and you'll get a full retail box - with manual and real cloth map - a solid return to old school gaming goodness!
