Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness comes out this spring, and while Xbox 360 just have to worry about when to download the game, PC, Linux, and Mac users have other worries. How much is this game going to cost me? Is my computer powerful enough to run this monster? Will I be able to perform a Hyper Ultra Extra Combo Extreme? Fortunately the latest press release from Hothead Games answers the first two questions, announcing a price of $19.95 and some relatively modest system specifications located after the jump. As for the third question, just check out the latest screenshots to catch a glimpse of the mystical H.U.E.C.E.. Magnificent, I say!
