Predictable Gigantic Shitstorm and Probably Getting Sued

Fingers crossed for another funny update on KS today

What about that one:

Dear backers. We are open for your questions and ideas. We understand that you're waiting for the new prototype, but aren't there questions about exclusive games for PGS, for instance?

Exclusive games... for a normal Windows and Android platform

 

[Klumpen]

^ Ok, now I think it isn't even a scam, it's pure satire!

 

[jeeks]

@EvilDragon Yep, that's a good one Imagine them trying to get a game dev studio on board: "We don't know the exact specs yet, or if the product will be anything like we imagined at all, but we want a game tailored to our hardware so people can't play it on other devices."

The sad thing is this is probably what they meant: A game that is exclusive for Windows and Android, so it can run on all their prototypes

 

[___]

since their definition of prototype seems to be pretty imaginative, I guess this means there are hundreds of potential exclusive games already?

 

[PowerGod]

Then I suppose even an exclusive version of STEAM will be released, to use its unique hardware

Yes, it will be called "Boiled"...

 

[Alperoot]

Yes, it will be called "Boiled"...

Ooh, I can't wait to see the prototypes.
And will probably be made of "other types of gas, but exactly same specs"

 

[PowerGod]

Yes, it will be called "Boiled"...

oh noes !! "Vaped" was better...

 

[JoeBlack]

Is it just me or PGS started to use fake accounts on KS to boost morale?

God knows and he ain't telling.

 

[Klumpen]

I think I'll cancel my Pyra pre-order and will get a PGS instead.
It's bloody good entertainment at least.

 

[Exophase]

I like how projects like this totally break kicktraq's projection modelling.

Maybe, but you can find true believers anywhere.

Every time some emulator hoax comes around and people point out why it's an obvious fake there are always people who get defensive and angry, start bringing up emulators that people thought were impossible and so on.

 

[JoeBlack]

In this case i am not so sure of "true belivers" more like blind belivers.
I backed PGS Kickstarter initialy, but those updates ... i mean updates are just ridiculous.

I would love to have x86 small PC for lite work, but i wont risk it in PGS case

 

[Gr8one]

GPD Win is looking promising for x86. I believe ED is doing preorders on his store too!

I'd love for PGS to exist too, would be a fun device to muck about with. It's funny for them being big fans of handheld gaming there is no mention of GP32, GP2X, Pandora, etc. If I was a university professor teaching a business class I would love to develop a case study on that project and contrast it with the Pyra, and I think PGS if they did any market research could have taken notes on how ED communicating with his updates and providing a great deal of inside information on the whole process. They say they spent 2 years developing this concept and there's nothing to show for it, too bad these scammers are probably going to run off with a nice payday. GGWP

More on exclusive games.

@PGS, So are there any exclusive games for PGS that take advantage of the extra features of the console? Has any game dev studio shown interest in your endeavor?

Why not. For example, some temporary exclusive games by indie developers. Sometimes they create true masterpieces.

So actually, timed exclusives.

Why would anyone do such a thing for a platform like this? PGS offers them a load of cash? It must be nice to have unlimited money for these things.

I'm just imagining how this gets enforced. Maybe the game starts up and makes you do something on both screens. Even that would be hard to tie to PGS.
