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!

Just when you thought it was safe to flop down on the couch in happy exhaustion, new DLC for Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster has been announced!

Its called Unidentified Furry Objects and it’s awesome.

It’s time to go back to the Book and meet strange new characters from another planet! New pages, new activies!

The perfect thing to play if you want to work off that big Thanksgiving dinner!

Or the last five big Thanksgiving dinners!

Building robots is fun and easy. Here’s a tip: The ingredients are cardboard, tin foil, and roller skate shoes! Another important tip: Save time by having the AI, speech, and locomotion systems provided by a small child who lives inside. But most important of all, use the authentic Robot costume building plans from the hit game Costume Quest! For your convenience and ease-of-reading, we have printed them on an attractive t-shirt! So when you’re done building your bot, you could, like, wear the shirt maybe or something. It’s blue!

Available in both Men’s and Women’s sizes. Shirt from American Apparel, and you know what THAT means.

Hi, PC gamers! How you doin?

Click “Read the Rest” to see the press release…

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – October 14—Double Fine Productions is happy to announce its first PC title in over six years. The epic Halloween adventure Costume Quest is available right now on Steam! The game is available for $14.99 and includes the celebrated add-on adventure Grubbins on Ice.

“I’m still mad!” cried that one guy who always posts on our forums, “I mean, what took them so long?”

“We have always said that if it were up to us, we’d release our games for the PC,” Schafer stated in a calm but inspiring tone. “Well, now… it’s finally up to us!” he said, holding his sword in the air while everybody cheered.

“Thanks to Dracogen Strategic Investments,” said a quiet, falsetto voice that no one could figure out where it was coming from.  “Steve Dengler is so likeable and handsome, eh?” said the voice again, but this time we were starting to have suspicions about who said it, even if his lips weren’t moving much.

Costume Quest is a Role-Playing Game set on Halloween night. You play as Trick or Treaters on an urgent mission. Monsters have invaded your town, kidnapped your twin, and worst of all, they are stealing all the candy! The player builds a party, collects candy, takes on side quests, and crafts new costumes along the way. These special costumes transform them into giant fantasy warriors so they may fight a variety of monsters in exciting turn-based combat to save Halloween. It’s effing awesome.

Grubbins on Ice follows the further adventures of our young heroes as they plunge through a mystical portal into the dimension of Repugia, the very home of monster kind! New quests, new locations, new costumes, and a couple of sweet yeti jokes abound. So does a giant eyeball.

“Well, I’m a tiny bit less mad,” said the guy from the forums, “But they’d better keep making PC versions.”

“We’re working on it, eh?” said a tiny voice.

This is the last one I swear!

Because after I touched his belly, they banned me from the set.

...because otherwise how could I play Xbox 360 with my kid? Best thing is…

...I got to keep this:
