They don't get any of the money if it fails to reach its goal, so probably.

If they don't hit the goal, they don't get a single cent, so it will be a heartbreaking defeat.
It might set them up for a decent relaunch, but at this point, it's likely all or nothing for keeps.

Didn't know, thanks for the replies.

 

[demosthenes]

Will back tonight.

 

[Zaph]

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Great stream

Hopefully hits 10000 backers by the end of the day.

Has anyone irritated Shu about this on Twitter? If not, someone should.

great Idea! I don't have a twitter though so I can't

 

[Deleted member 80556]

Pledge 40$ already, Kev, dammit.

Has anyone irritated Shu about this on Twitter? If not, someone should.

He has even pledged for the game.

 

[besada]

But has he posted the KS link? Because that would be great.

 

[alr1ght]

yes

 

[besada]

Yay, Shu!

 

[Rated-G]

Gonna try and alter my budget for the rest of the month so I can raise my pledge from $40 to $100. Man I hope the next 48 hours are kind to all involved!

Also now I've totally got Barkerville stuck in my head and Simon's Quest will never be the same.

 

[LiK]

yes

c'mon Shu, raise dat pledge!

 

[Triggerhappytel]

$35 though? I mean, it's great that he gave it a bit of exposure, but he can afford more than that, can't he?!

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Shu only put in $35


Cmon man!

$35 though? I mean, it's great that he gave it a bit of exposure, but he can afford more than that, can't he?!

Those Sony exec paycuts must have been brutal

 

[SpasilliumX11]

[Vire]

$35 Shu? Serious breh?

Aren't you like a CEO or some shit?

 

[Triggerhappytel]

$663k now. Holy shit, this is really gonna happen! It looked dead in the water until a few days ago, but I've really got into this and it's been pretty exciting.

 

[besada]

Another idea: Tweet the bands that appeared in Amplitude, tell them you heard them there long ago, and Harmonix could use a little publicity help.

 

[Dead Prince]

$35 Shu? Serious breh?

think of his twins. they probably already put in $1K each.

Sony is doing worst than we thought.

Well, sure, but first you'll have to start a Kickstarter so that POD and Slipknot can have enough to pitch in to the Amplitude Kickstarter

 

[VanCityGamer]

Wow, looks like it's going to be very close. Do we think it'll make it based on the pace over the last several days?

 

[clintar]

I'm not seeing this $35 tier with $20 psn monies...

 

[slabrock]

was limited to 1000 backers

 

[shwimpy]

Have you seen Sony's financials?

 

[epmode]

I'd say it's a sure thing. Congratulations, Harmonix!

 

[clintar]

Oh, thought there was the DLC one before and this one was new. Nevermind, then.

 

[Odrion]

Sony is doing worst than we thought.

They need to get their PSN store cards back, lol.

 

[acevans2]

It seems like it can make it fairly easily at the rate they've been going at the last few days. Have they hinted at a Vita stretch goal for hitting, say $800K or anything?

 

[terrdactycalsrock]

I mean, at what point does this guys just start going to banks and looking for small loans? If I was super close to getting kick started thats what I would do

 

[BruiserBear]

I mean, at what point does this guys just start going to banks and looking for small loans? If I was super close to getting kick started thats what I would do

That's why I think it's gonna make it. If it gets close, say 20K away, someone from the developer or Sony could step in and make it happen. It would he worth it for the PR alone at this point.

 

[SteveWinwood]

I can't believe this is going to make it.

Congrats to them!

 

[~Kinggi~]

This is actually an impressive final push for something i thought wasnt gonna make it.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Well, sure, but first you'll have to start a Kickstarter so that POD and Slipknot can have enough to pitch in to the Amplitude Kickstarter

:lol


The running joke with POD in the stream gets me everytime.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

40k while I was at work. C'mon kick starter that could

 

[UnluckyKate]

No idea if the code will be for US or EU and if the 40$ included previous 35$ with DLC, but hey. I backed this at 40$.

I want to see this happens.

 

[daydream]

'Barkerville' rendition was better than I could have ever hoped for, lol.

Hope this makes it!

 

[chrominance]

$35 Shu? Serious breh?

This has been mentioned before but it's highly likely Shu's tweet was for promo value more than anything. Telling people you just backed at $1000 does nothing. Telling people you backed at $35 and also hey there's $20 of DLC in it for you if you do the same, that's likely to convince a lot more people because they can actually afford $35.

 

[Flambe]

Backed. Barkerville was great

Does nothing? There was a huge spike in pledges when Insomniac dropped down 7.5k.

Lot's of extra added exposure. Sony really has done the bare minimum to help this game out.

 

[Loudninja]

666,000 coming up

 

[IAmRandom31]

I think they will get there with time to spare. The final 24 hour push usually brings in good numbers especially when a project is close to funded

I want to believe

 

[Antilurker77]

At $666k right now. This is gonna make it. It just has to.

 

[Futureman]

does Shu live in US? If not then I don't see how he'll be using his PSN money.

 

[Sami+]

Really happy for all the Harmonix fans. We did it.
