Default Penny Arcade RPG/Adventure

Either you like Penny Arcade, or you do not. Personally I love the non sequitur humor.

The game itself kinda looks like Freedom Force.

This game has had some discussion over in the adventure forum.

At the time, it looked more adventure but now it's looking more RPG (but it still looks cool).

Yeah, that's what it looked like at PAX. Definitely an RPG, but with some of the better parts of adventure games involved, such as interactive conversations. I believe there was also mention of inventory puzzle-esque minigames, though they weren't shown.

The humour's a little bit hit-or-miss where I'm concerned (I'm failing to find some of the more vulgar jokes funny; perhaps I'm getting too old for that kind of humour), but I'm still looking forward to the game regardless.

Wow, you went to PAX, Squinky? Nice. Still looking forward to this. I usually enjoy all things Penny Arcade, so this should be a treat too.

Also, Ron Gilbert!

Anyone know if this is PC only, or will there be a console version of it?
