Cinemaware launches Kickstarter for Wings: Directors Cut

[A1260]

you say no os4/morphos.. then you make it for the niche market pc... where have you been?... the big marked today is ps3/x360, not pc's anymore...  and no ps3/x360 version in retail, then i just give a damn. pc are just for office work or home web surfing.

another thing is when you can do Android port you sure can do a psvita version to... another big market missed.


but jumping on an amiga forum and expect people falling all over because big cinemaware is back. is just expecting to much these days, its 2012 after all.

If that's the case then what the heck they're doing posting on Amiga.org forum? Their message is like: "Hey, we are Cinemaware, and our company used to make games for Amiga. You know what? We need your money so that we could do a fantastic remake for iOS/PC/Whatever-not-Amiga, so come on and pledge". Maybe in a week or two we'll get a news item by Microsoft CEO: "Hi, our company made a stunning version of Amiga BASIC once, so go now and buy Windows 8/9/X/whatever"?

back in 2002 they released 'defender of the crown remastered', they did it fine without even doing any ebegging then...

The original Cinemaware went belly up in 1991.  There's an interview with the original folks here: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/26583/Interview_Bob_Jacob_On_The_Cinemaware_Era.php

Some guy named Lars Fuhrken-Batista bought the name and ip and had a six year run with it from 2000-2005.  

He sold it to egames.

yeah they even did a ps2 version of 'defender of the crown' back then...
