I am absolutely flabbergasted at how good this little promotion game is. The humor, the style, the dedication is just phenomenal. It really makes me proud to be a Space Quest and Adventure game fan. Everybody needs to back this project so we can have this beautiful fanbase continue to thrive and we can once again be graced with the kind of hilarious and twisted space game that only Mark & Scott (The Two Guys) could make in this galaxy or the next!
AMD

+ - Is AMD already too far gone ?->

Submitted by Taco Cowboy
Taco Cowboy writes "The reason why today feels a lot more dire for AMD than its recent history is that we've seen what the company has to offer: we've seen the Trinity line that aims to fight off Ivy Bridge and the fact that it doesn't truly have enough to set it apart, and today we saw the somewhat misguided new Brazos line of chips, which AMD opted to compare against Intel's Celeron lineup, waging an anachronistic battle for a netbook market that no longer exists

Windows 8's arrival raises the stakes of this particular hardware generation even higher. This autumn will be a boom period for purchases of new laptops, desktop, hybrids, sliders, transformers, and tablets, and the market-stimulating effects of Microsoft's new OS launch look likely to benefit Intel most of all. The ARM upstarts will have a unique sales pitch to offer and will find their niche in the market, but AMD's is stuck competing with Intel on Intel's favorite battleground, and this time it may not survive the fight."

Decaffeinated Jedi writes "A team of fans has released a short retro point-and-click adventure game titled "Pledge Quest I: The SpaceVenture Adventure" to rally support for the new Kickstarter from Space Quest creators, the Two Guys from Andromeda. The game features its protagonist, Bea (named for Roger Wilco's love interest in the Space Quest series), completing a series of puzzles that culminate in her logging on to her computer and making a pledge in support of the upcoming sci-fi/comedy SpaceVenture game from the Two Guys. The "Pledge Quest" game was conceptualized and developed by fans in just a few short days, in hope that it would rally support for the Two Guys' SpaceVenture (which reaches its deadline on June 12)."

Now, the original creators of Space Quest and the folks responsible for sarien.net are planning a new game, and have already put out some teasers to test browsers and show off the artwork, and show they haven't lost their sense of humor."
