And I would point out other games seem to figure out where to put themselves in full screen :P

Linux - 2 monitors, game spanning 2 screens

Hi, grabbed it in the sale, under ubuntu 13.04 with nvidia proprietary 325 from xorg-edgers, the game fires up in a spanned mode across both screens (a 27" 2560x1440 + 19" 1280x1024). Hopping into resolution options I can only choose 3840x1440 or 1280x1024. The big screen is primary in X. ...

You're right! Pricing something over the market value should be considered evidence of greed. Find me a comparable game on the market that's this highly priced! :) Add to that, it's about the only situation I've seen where they're actually penalising their early supporters instead of giving them a b...

Salaries are usually factored into company's "cost" of production... Just sayin. D: Thanks for pointing this out so I don't have to :) I think some people are a little slow here lol. And I dont know about you but two point eight million dollars for a game that's not even finished yet cert...

if they sold it for what it costs then they'd go broke. It's simple maths, it's not something that can be argued. You keep saying this and it keeps making me think you don't know the meaning of what you're saying - Selling something for what it costs is the one sure fire, 100 percent guaranteed way...

They've already made $2,811,190 according to their own site. http://www.introversion.co.uk/prisonarchitect/ They've already recouped their past and future costs for this game several times over, and paid the bills for their next few projects too. Not that small a company eh? :) It's a free market, y...

Oh, and I kickstarterd Carmageddon incidentally. For $15, not $30. I have no problem with the concept of crowd funding and paying for a game to be developed before it's actually released. And in answer to the above, yeah, it doesn't really matter what I think, at the end of the day someone sets a pr...

Alpha testing is usually something you get paid to do, not pay for the privilege, lol. And the difference between pre-ordering the latest blockbuster for £40 (which I don't tend to do by the way), is that the whole point of the triple A blockbuster is that it cost an absolute fortune to make. Vast a...

Price!

Ok, I saw this randomly on steam, and I'm really interested, it looks like it could be a great game. Introversion have made some great stuff, I've owned for years and played plenty of Uplink and Defcon (bought Darwinia but didn't really take to it). Only one reason I've not bought this, and I though...
