It should also be noted that this is a painting.

Are the ones you've found possibly the convention exclusives? I know there was a Luke's Landspeeder and I think a Slave 1 in this style, maybe more (Darth Maul's ship?) and those required waiting in lines and getting raffle numbers and jumping through hoops and also had a high price tag to begin with.

The functionality seems cool, but can I have an Oculus Rift adventure game like this that isn't so... mundane? I just mean, to go from "I wanna be a pirate!" to "I wanna be a guy with Alzheimer's!" isn't exactly the leap in narrative I was expecting.

Plastic Man, NOOOOO!

I have the iPad version, and it was a little buggy at launch, but most of that has been ironed out by now. This type of game works really well on the device. I'd heard that it was unlikely they'd port expansions, though. Hopefully that's changed because I'd love to play some of the new content at some point.

According to other articles, King did indeed directly contact a third-party developer to clone this game, when the deal to publish the original fell through.

I suggest Stoic just apply to trademark the word "Banner" as it pertains to videogames. Because if King won't let them trademark "Banner Saga" together because of "saga", then that means other people could release games with the word "banner" in it.

You are correct that they deliberately commissioned another developer to clone the game. Most likely coded from scratch, but it's obvious that developer was given the game and told to replicate it.

Shepard always was a sellout!

Are you ready for this jelly?

I think that image link is borked.

Here's a question about this part, as it relates to the word 'candy': "But no one else made that claim to the word with regards to video games yet"

When will Hasbro step in to challenge King's trademark application to the word "candy"?

Well, I was going to wait until I worked my way through some of my backlog of games before picking up Banner Saga, but this has put it to the top of my queue. Bought.

You mean Interplay?

Yeah, and it showed the shot wear he shared the beer with Brad Pitt only Pitt wasn't there for the flashback.

The game comes with the Source 2007 SDK, so you don't have to download anything separately if you don't already have a Valve game that came with it.

The question is, did Owen Good mean the old X-COM in his original post, though?
