Legends of Video Games Kickstarter

Heres a kickstarter from Len Perralta, from the Geek A Week series, offering a set of 16 cards that depict some of the biggest names in gaming such as Ken Levine, Tim Schafer, and Gabe Newell. There is some pretty cool stuff that you can get in the pledged so if you want to check it out here it is. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1337047168/geek-a-week-legends-of-videogames

Looks like they actually meant to make an online garage sale.

Is he allowed to do that? I didn't read the whole thing, but did he get the rights to use those peoples names and (sort of) likeness?

Edit: Fuck it I read the whole thing, my comment is a waste of space :P

@Brendan: Yea, if you read on down the page there are links to recordings where he is interviewing these people for the card.

Yeah my comment is dumb, I read the whole thing. It's a really cool project!

I did not know he was from Cleveland. I guess I will support it. (I live very close to Cleveland, like supporting local things)

i think we've all wasted enough money on paper (trading) cards in our lifetimes. cool idea but i'll pass
