LIMBO OF THE LOST IS REAL
(Posted 2008-06-19 03:28:49 by basscomm)

Sometime in May a game came out with very little fanfare. It was some
generic point-and-click adventure game that had been in development for a
long while, and finally surfaced. But, about a week ago some folks noticed
that the game had images that looked like they were lifted directly from
other games, a blatant case of 'asset theft' [
http://pushbuttonb.com/news.php?item.160.1 ] it would seem. The publisher
even went so far as to remove the game from shelves [
http://pushbuttonb.com/news.php?item.174.1 ] to investigate the issue.

This led some folks to initially postulate that the game didn't even exist
since they had never seen it on store shelves [

irrefutable, kind of grainy, cell-phone-taken evidence that the game does,
in fact, exist. My copy arrived in the mail today. Behold!

Now I just need to decide if it's worth it to crack open the seal or if I
need to save it to sell on eBay in twenty years.

And I should probably get batteries for my actual camera.
