Double Fine Day of Overdelivery, pt. 1: Happy Action Theater
Double Fine Happy Action Theater is NOW AVAILABLE on Xbox Live Arcade!!!
Here is a handy link you can use to buy it!
It has 18 completely different activities, many of which involve you performing bizzare acts in front of your television. We don’t force you to performs these acts. But when we turn the game on, people do it themselves! Look what happend when we took the game across the street to Bar Basic and let people check out the Clone-O-Matic(tm):

Here is a second, even more handy link you can use to buy it!
Here is Happy Action Theater being reviewed on IGN by KIDS:
Here is a third, possibly unnecessary, but still pretty handy link you can use to buy it!
And here is a fancy trailer that our friends at Microsoft made for us:
That trailer was so fancy I think it calls for an even handier link you can use to buy it!
Ah heck, why not one more, just to be safe?
So, in conclusion I think the safest thing to say is that Double Fine Happy Action Theater is the thing your life has been missing all this time.

STACKING COMING TO PC
SAN FRANCISCO, CA – December 16 —Double Fine Productions is happy to announce that Stacking, the Russian Doll Adventure recently named Downloadable Game of the Year by G4TV’s X-Play, is coming to the PC.
“I had nothing to do with this,” interjected Steve Dengler of Dracogen Strategic Investments, even though he totally funded the whole thing.
“Please, it is Christmas time and I prefer my good deeds to be anonymous, like Santa,” he added.
“Uh, everybody knows about Santa,” said Stacking creator Lee Petty, “He’s on every street corner in town.”
“So’s your mother,” said Mr. Dengler.
“Ho ho ho, that’s not Christmas talk,” said Santa Claus, who had slid into the room through the chimney without anyone noticing. “Christmas is about the spirit of giving, like how Double Fine is giving away the excellent DLC adventure The Lost Hobo King along with Stacking.”
Lee and Steven scowled at each other for a bit longer, but then they had to laugh and agree that Santa was right, and everybody gathered around to hug and sing Christmas carols. They sang about what an awesome game Stacking was, how great the Lost Hobo King DLC was, and how lucky everyone was that all this joy would be available on Steam, in the Spring of 2012 at the bargain price of $14.99. It was a strange song that didn’t rhyme much, but it was heartfelt.
And Lee’s mother, who is a saint, never found out about any of this.

Perhaps Iron Brigade may come to Steam as well? *crosses fingers*"
"I created an account just to thank you for this.
Thank you!"
Iron Brigade DEPLOYED WORLDWIDE, with matching SHIRT!
Iron Brigade, the game formerly known as I can’t remember what, is now available AROUND THE WORLD. No more European embargo! You can download it right now from XBLA. RIGHT NOW! Also happening today, if you already own a game called Trenched, you can download an update that won’t just rename your game to Iron Brigade, but also unlock new loot, leaderboards, and an awesome survival mode for FREE. To celebrate this momentous day in fictional military history, we are releasing a brand new Iron Brigade T-Shirt!
Oh wait, this is NOT a T-shirt! That would get us sued! This I-Shirt features the flying emplacement logo from the hit game Iron Brigade, emblazoned across an olive green American Apparel shirt. Why waste hours at the gym when this amazing garment could give you a MANLIER CHEST in MINUTES!?
P.S. American Apparel shirts run a little small, so unless you are actually wasting hours at the gym, you might want to order up a size.
Now go download Iron Brigade and KILL SOME TUBES!!!
"Thanks for the information. This is very useful to me. I waited for another article. Samsung Galaxy Harga Nokia Asha Berita Terkini Mobile Prices"
"*ad"
"The add on the main pages still says Trenched."
"Hey! You got to earn that T-shirt to wear it!"
"That's the T-shirt. It's an image of Brad, standing against a brick wall, wearing an Iron Brigate T-shirt, on a T-shirt... I-shirt. That wall he's standing in front of is the 3rd wall."
Iron Brigade descends upon Europe November 30!
Sorry, but we had to wait for this whole Greek debt thing to get resolved. Also, Brad was really upset about the state of Italian politics, and vowed he wouldn’t release his game in Europe until Silvio Berlusconi stepped down. You can understand his feelings, I’m sure.
Anyway, the good news is that Iron Brigade will be out in Europe on November 30!
Also, on that fateful day, Trenched players worldwide will get an update that will rename their beloved game to Iron Brigade. WHY? Why are we forcing everybody to change the name of their game? Because if the names are different, if we did the Biohazard/Resident Evil thing, you would not be able to play a multiplayer game between the two versions.
No, seriously.
Surprised? So were we! HAHA! That is the sound of me being so surprised when I found out we had to rename our game! HAHAHA! Joy and surprise! HAHAHA!
Anyway, we really wanted to make sure that everybody could play together around the world because our game is a game about LOVE. The ultimate goal of our game is, after all, nothing short of WORLD PEACE. So we went the Hero’s Quest/Quest for Glory route instead. Now we want all the children of the world to gather together, hold hands, and say “Iron Brigade” over and over and over again until they can’t even remember what it was called before. And then we want them to shoot Tubes together while sharing information about their disparate cultures.
As your reward for tolerating all these renaming shenanigans, Brad and his Band of Brohams are releasing a brand new (and 100%-free-to-you) SURVIVAL MODE, plus new LOOT. So really, this whole thing was pretty much totally worth it and I’m glad it happened. In fact, if anyone has any new ideas for a name, we could totally change it again! Woo!
Stay tuned to the official Iron Brigade website for more news about the upcoming DLC, Rise of the Martian Bear! Or whatever we change the name to later!
"Wow!I really loved reading your blog. It was very well written and simple to understand. Unlike additional blogs I have read.

"If you called it "Robot Quest" people would be stepping over their own mothers to get a copy. I'm telling you. *raises eyebrows*"
"Many, many tubes shall rue the day they were built. Even more than before."
"Hey, look, we also have capcha codes to stop all the comment spam! Yay!"
