The fund-generating (organized begging) site, Kickstarter, has done a buttload for video games. Games, have arguably saved the site from potential financial bankruptcy. A poster child is obviously Tim Schafer’s Double Fine Adventure that nearly broke all functionality on the site.
Just as there are great success stories of awesome games being crowd funded, there are also some really dumb games getting the green light. Here are a few of the crazies...

Unemployment quest. Really? Whatever next. I love Kickstarter, especially when they get games like Shadowrun off the ground, but clearly the "fad" part of funding games is really get some crap funded. Nice article, had a good laugh!
