Legend of Dungeon meets Kickstarter goal on first day

But there are still plenty of stretch goals Backing up a step, yes, that pretty-looking beat-’em-upfrom the other day,Legend of Dungeon, has taken to Kickstarter. As luck would have it, the campaign surpassed its admittedly rather modest goal of $5,000 within 24 hours of launching.

Modern Warfare 2 imagery already upsetting people

Thelatest trailerforModern Warfare 2, depicting a Washington under siege, was only revealed this Sunday, but it’s alreadyraised the ireof crybabies/pot stirrers who can’t handle the concept of a videogame trying something contemporary and unique with its plot. The Christian Science Monitordoes the predictable and easy thing — invokes 9/11 like it was Godwin’s Law and insinuating that no videogame should dare eventhinkof touching that sacred and Holy event.
