not only that but your fan base would only have to front a small percentage of the initial investment.
you get in return a free game, and a royalty percentage on the sales commensurate with your investment amount.
EDIT:
if i came to your house and offered you a deal wherein - if you invest $5,000 into the development of Silent Hunter 5 i would give you .25% of the total worldwide sales profits would you invest yoru 5 thousand bucks?
worst case scenario... the game falls through and by contract you get your $5,000 back in full
Best case scenario... worldwide sales profit tops $5 Million... and you get a check for... $12,500 - almost triple your money
