Hi everyone, Im Scott Richmond from Cold Fusion Entertainment. I have developed a game already (and in stores) under XGames and I must say XGames is probably the best bet for any "young" developer around wanting to get into the gaming business or have their game published independently. Many people have noticed the same opportunity they could have with getting their own games developed under Xtreme Games that they too have joined and gotten their games in stores. XGames has grown alot, and the big companies have noticed this too. One for example Hasbro! Even though Hasbro may be selling their games division, they are still pursuing Xtreme Games in court. What does this mean for you? Even if you do not publish under Xtreme Games, if Hasbro wins this case, that will set a trend for the rest of the valueware market and who knows where that will lead to... (Possibly the whole video game market itself) That means you will have these big companies trying to knock down the little developers and the industry will go "kurplunk"! "Is there light at the end of this dark tunnel?", you may ask. There can be, but its going to take the help from everyone on this board. Here''s the deal: Xgames WILL win in court against Hasbro because they have a very justifiable case against Hasbro (money aside). The problem is this: Xgames, without funding for the court, will not win against a company (Hasbro) that can fund such a lawsuit. Even with such a good case, Xgames will lose if they have no lawyers to represent them. Here is your chance to help!!! XGames needs donations. If you are ready to donate or if you want to find out more information about the whole ordeal, then head on over to: http://www.xgames3d.com/xlegalfund.htm We really encourage you to donate through the link above, however you may not feel comfortable donating the minimum amount of 20 dollars. If so, there is still a way you can help. We soon will be offering a donation at www.xgamesfund.f2s.com (the donations are sent directly to Xtreme Games) that will allow you to donate any amount of money you wish through the secure transactions of PayPal (this is a popular transaction program used by millions of people all the time at ebay). This way, you will not be set on the amount to donate, you may donate as much as you desire. If you cannot do this, at least help spread the word about this fund, it is vitally important to the game development community and you will be helping to save a very prominent developer Xtreme Games lead by Andre Lamothe, who we all know himself has given so much back to the community with his books! Its now our turn to help him out when he needs it most! Most important of all, its time to change the way the gaming industry works! Sincerely, Scott Richmond Cold Fusion Entertainment
