Quick Review of Penny Arcade Game

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the wonder-how-they-would-rate-their-own-game dept.

Now that it has been in general circulation for a while, Kotaku has a nice simple review of the good, the bad, and the ugly in the new Penny Arcade game, On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness. "When you've been making fun of the video game industry as long as Penny Arcade's Jerry 'Tycho' Holkins and Mike 'Gabe' Krahulik have been, deciding to create your own game is one ballsy move. You have to know that every review site you've ever trashed and every developer you've viciously sodomized with your barbed wit is watching your every move, desperate to see you stumble so they can get in a few licks."

    So there's the "how and where do I go to make hobo meat edible" adventure-quest element... I think it might be worth buying just to see how that plays out...

    There's no reason to think that. Complaining is far easier than doing. Nice example, btw.
