Worth the wait? Brutal Legend heads to PC this month
Years later, Brutal Legend is finally going to be available on PC. It'll hit Steam on February 26, 2013 for $14.99 and is curiously being published by Double Fine. The landing page is already up, allowing would-be players to save 25 percent on the purchase and get some bonuses, like immediate access to the multiplayer beta and exclusive Team Fortress 2 items: Eddie Riggs' hair and his guitar. A mix of action-adventure and real-time strategy, the game was loved by some, despised by others, and misunderstood by the rest of us. Perhaps the new budget price and passage of time will be beneficial. Beyond the title itself, the original score composed by Peter McConnell has also appeared on Steam -- it's priced at $4.99 when bundled and $7.99 individually. Did you know?

12:00 PM on 05.18.2013 Preview: The Last of UsI was skeptical of The Last of Us. Despite all the hype and high promises, to me, it looked like post-apocalyptic Uncharted. I wasn't sold on the dynamic nature of how the game progressed, and as we all know, zombies have been literally done to death in the past five years. Then, I got a chance to actually play it. How many days until June 14th again?
