![]() Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness Episode Two comes to XBLIVE Arcade this Wednesday and it features the same cartoon characters you love/hate but with better game mechanics. While Episode One was hailed as a hit for its graphics and novelty, it fell short for many people when it came to actually playing the game; if you're one of them, wait and see if there is a demo first. To hold you over until Weds, we have some screens, two videos and the press release from today below. You can get in on the 6-10 hours of fun for $14.95 (1200 MS Points).

Press ReleaseLAUNCH DATE SET FOR EPISODE TWO OF PENNY ARCADE GAME The Comedic RPG-Adventure Romp Turns Spooky In Time for Halloween VANCOUVER, British Columbia - Oct. 22, 2008 - Grab your gardening tool and watch out for giant spiders, out-of-control asylum patients and wacko sanitarium administrators! Hothead Games announced today that Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode Two will be available via Xbox LIVE® Arcade and via the Greenhouse digital distribution platform (www.playgreenhouse.com) for Windows®, Mac® and Linux® next Wednesday, October 29. The madcap Penny Arcade experience continues in Episode Two of the RPG-Adventure romp! Rejoin Gabe and Tycho and go crazy in a whole new episode with more puzzles, areas to explore and levels to gain, all while moving ever closer to solving the sinister mystery hidden deep in the heart of New Arcadia. Players can jump right in with a fresh character and new customization options or carry over their looks and stats from Episode One. Plus, new difficulty settings allow gamers to play it safe or go insane, battling bigger and badder enemies than ever before. Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode Two will also boast music from The Darkest of the Hillside Thickets, a Canadian rock band dedicated to promoting the literature of H. P. Lovecraft and a recent performer at the 2008 Penny Arcade Expo gaming festival. The song, entitled "Some Things Man Was Not Meant To Know," will enhance the game's closing credits. "This game is all about the strange and insane world of New Arcadia and the Penny Arcade-style humor to be found in it," said Hothead CEO Vlad Ceraldi. "With the cool gameplay additions we've made, including longer gameplay, completion tracking and difficulty settings; extra Lovecraftian overtones in the world and music; and the perfect time of the year, everything just came together." Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode Two is expected to offer players six to ten hours of gameplay, and is priced at $14.95 for the Windows, Mac, and Linux versions on Greenhouse and at 1200 Microsoft points via Xbox LIVE® Arcade. The game has been rated "M" for Mature by the Entertainment Software Rating Board for all platforms. Comments (2)

... I skipped the first. Actually, I bought it but didn't play more than a minute or two. I just didn't get it but maybe I'll give it another try. I do have it and can't sell it or anything so what the heck. |

... If I get sick and get some time at home (alone!) I might give this a try. I don't read the comic so it's no big deal to me. |
