Penny Arcade Adventures goes to Steam News

PC News by Robert Purchese

12 June, 2008

The first Penny Arcade adventure title is now available via Steam, Valve's digital distribution service.

Which seems a bit strange, given as it was the debut offering on the Penny Arcade-founded digital distribution service Greenhouse. Still, broader user-base and all that.

The Steam version will have added achievements so you can show off to your friends who, er, use Steam as well.

It has a familiar PC price tag of GBP 10 / EUR 13.

The game is available on Xbox Live Arcade too, but it costs a bit more at 1600 Microsoft Points (GBP 13.60 / EUR 19.20).

Unfortunately, despite the promise of lovely graphics and the overseeing eye of adventure game legend Ron Gilbert, the game turned out to be a bit mediocre.

Head over to our Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode One review to find out why. And can the next episode please have a shorter name thanks.

While it is good...I don't understand why if you've got your own digital service. Surely you want to help that grow so it is a worthy competitor?

Because as much as I like Steam, I would find it better if it didn't end up the only option.
