    It looks like it's going to be funded. Now for 18-odd months of bouncing off the walls and endlessly tweeting "is it done yet?"

    I'm in at the $100 level. Beta access! I think my wife would be a bit pissed if she found out. Nobody tell her!

    Too late ;)

    I hope the next video is as good as the first.

    Speaking of Bethesda, this would be a great opportunity to score a few points with the "hardcore" RPG fans by contributing and tweeting this thing. Their silence is suspicious. Perhaps butthurt over the "turn it into an FPS" joke that hints at Fallout 3?

    $798K...$799K... $800K! 14K+ backers...

    Just $100K to go....though I'm really hoping they actually hit at least $1.5M .... bigger world, and a mac os x version as well....

    I just happened to be checking the project site when the final 2 10,000 dollar packages sold within a minute of each other. 851k as of this posting!

    This is really going to happen, without a doubt!!!

    Met their goal in under 48 hours.

    But yes... PC gaming, and old school party based RPGs are dead. DEAD, I tell you!

    $873,000+ right now. By morning US eastern, they should be well past 900,000. Gives you hope for the future of humanity. Not in the game, because, heh, post-apocalyptic wasteland, but you know.

    $873,281. Wow. This is really happening. It was so wonderful to watch Brian Fargo talk about the game and can't wait for the second video.

    I tell ya, I didn't hear about Wasteland until I entered this forum and I'm glad I did and am glad to live in an age where this genre of PC gaming is starting back at it's roots. Obscure and awesome. Low budget but kicks ass.

    It's 25k away from reaching it's goal, the question now isn't wether or not it'll make it, but by how much is it gonna surpass it's goal.

    No kidding! This is so amazing you guys. Cheers to each and all of you! I haven't been this excited since...well...since Van Buren crushed my hopes and dreams long ago.

    It's a done deal, folks! $901,806 as of this posting, and counting!!!

    I'm really really happy and amazed at the gaming community. I wasn't sure what the response would be like. If I was Fargo, I think I'd be too excited to sleep tonight.

    Best thing I've read on a webpage in a long time. :D
