In Case You Were Wondering, Star Citizen Is Insanely Ambitious

Star Citizen, largely famous for being one of the most ambitious games currently in development (or ever, potentially), has just recently crested the $68,000,000 mark in its crowdfunding endeavor.  Touting lifetime insurance as one of the many perks of pre-purchasing a souped up spaceship, developers Cloud Imperium have made the allure of buying into their unreleased MMO as tantalizing as ever.  Luckily, though, nearly every interview with head honcho, Chris Roberts, has worked to assure "investors" that every dollar being spent isn't necessarily being whisked away to fulfill his dream of owning the world's first Wing Commander island theme park.

Wing Commander creator has ambitious plans and needs your help

Chris Roberts Returns to Gaming with Star Citizen

No, that image is not the TCS Tiger Claw you see above, though the ship's creator is very familiar with the famous ship from Wing Commander.  That is a screenshot from Star Citizen, an incredibly ambitious new project from Chris Roberts.  Roberts is famous for his days at Origin systems creating the Wing Commander series and then moving on to launch Freelancer and Starlancer.  All of these games are from a genre that is all but extinct lately, the space simulator.
