I just wondered how long that title would look.
As Stephany reported earlier, the first episode of the Penny Arcade episodic gaming series has finally arrived on both PC and Xbox 360. The Xbox Live Arcade version differs from the PC version in that you control your character directly with the controller as opposed to the point-and-click interface the PC version uses. You might want to consider trying out the trial version on XBLA and the PC demo to see which control scheme you prefer.
The game is the most expensive Arcade game to date at 1600 Microsoft Points ($20), but developer Hothead Games has stated that the installments won’t be released as frequently as Sam & Max. Hopefully that means you won’t be bleeding 1600 Microsoft Point cards too often.
