Always hard to say, but they’re totally competent devs—I expect them to deliver the game, at the very least. Darksiders was a better game than Darksiders 2, but I’m super interested to see their take on the JRPG. Read more

Don’t apologize for being helpful, but if you feel weird doing it in the comments, my email is at the bottom and I’m always checking it. :) Read more

They’re still tweaking around with it, I think. McMillen puts these games out in-between the big stuff. They were still showing Super Meatboy Forever at PAX, though I have no idea when it’s coming out. Read more

Nope. But on the PS4, you can filter out PC players. It’s just an option. Read more
