I cannot reveal what secret sources I used to obtain these screenshots from the upcoming game:
From the Tycho portion of the game:

From the Gabe portion:

- Sources report that the final end-game boss for Tycho requires you to write a palindromic haiku. (If you’re playing on hard, it must be in French.)
- The ending for Gabe involves using a baseball bat to procure a Pac-Man wristwatch from Tycho.
Silent Hill 2 Plot Analysis
A long-form analysis on one of the greatest horror games ever made.
MMO Population Problems
Computers keep getting more powerful. So why do the population caps for massively multiplayer games stay about the same?
Batman: Arkham City
A look back at one of my favorite games. The gameplay was stellar, but the underlying story was clumsy and oddly constructed.
The Gradient of Plot Holes
Most stories have plot holes. The failure isn't that they exist, it's when you notice them while immersed in the story.
Programming Language for Games
Game developer Jon Blow is making a programming language just for games. Why is he doing this, and what will it mean for game development?
Hey SCUMM, long time no see!
Oh yeah. This game’s a keeper. I wants a copy.
Hehe… Good old Lucas Arts style adventure. :) What happened to this genre lately? I can’t really think of a single recent game that could compare in the level of campy wackiness, and humor to the titles such as Monkey Island series, or Sam & Max.
Ah… SCUMM.
Might want to check the spelling on the Tycho section, though…
Hm. “In Jest” or Ingest?
If this is really what the game is going to be like, it’s bound to me the most frustrating game since Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.
I can’t wait!
Shamus, I think I will have nightmares about writing a palindromic haiku in French.
Thank you so much.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
Spelling of “injest” and “villify” fixed.
I ran that crap through a spell checker and everything. Then I cut & pasted the text into PSP. How in the heck did I manage to butcher those two words during a copy & paste?!
Man, if there is a way to misspell something, I will find it.
Ask me about LOOM!
I really loved the Monkey Island Series (with the exception of the last installment. They switched from the SCUMM 2D engine to the Grim Fandango 3D engine. It was an instant turnoff for me.)
Can’t wait to play this game !
The descriptions for the images are inverted…
I think someone was playing Maniac Mansion recently.
Your mother is a duck.
Do we really need four different synonyms for ‘put down’, though? I know it’s Penny Arcade, but 2 or 3 at most, I would say.
