I like the title because it's pretty unusual. It's also funny how everytime it's mentioned, someone has to say it sounds like NIN. Funny because it shows that person knows NIN only from a single video / single album at best. That's because I don't know what that band has to do with pigs aside from Closer video / some The Downward Spiral titles.
I have half of the albums on CD and every song on my hard drive. Don't question my NINitude.

You guys can't possibly think "A Machine For Pigs" is somehow
worse than "The Dark Descent," can you?
[looks at thread]
Apparently yes, we can.
"Dark Descent" is, at worst, bland. Yeah it's a descent...
into darkness. Fairly typical imagery. Ho-hum, we get it.
"A Machine for Pigs", on the other hand, brings to mind all manner of ridiculous, cartoonish, not-at-all-scary images. Aww, look at the cute little piggy with his fantabulous contraption! Oink oink squeee!

Wow. That is a lot of not what I think of when I hear "A Machine for Pigs."
Actually I mostly just think of how much I want to cram thechineseroom's lungs full of toxic dooks, but that's neither here nor there.

I'm a huge NIN fan.. and the first thing that came to mind when I saw "A Machine for Pigs" was Lord of the Flies.

Well you're not exactly the poster child for well-adjusted.

Gotta hand it to Detholl, a machine for pigs does not necessarily benefit the pigs in my mind.

I sooo can't wait for this. I was worried when they announced the dear Esther team was working on this.(sorry that wasn't a game, that was a desktop wallpaper sim) But the trailer just looks freaking awesome

Christ, I'll never get credibility on my Dear Esther opinion now, not with that kind of backup.
