Quick Look: Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

The Last Summer of Arcade? :(

been waiting for this one

Broth-ers.

Yesterday I read that as "Brothers In Arms" and thought a new such game was coming out.

BROTHERS! *Randy Savage voice*

• I only watch Quick Looks when I am eating food or drinking tea slash coffee.
• I cried when my third and final sister was born because she wasn't a boy.

Les Enfants Terrible?

Been refreshing the page waiting for this one. Kept getting a 404 error. Also, I happen to have two brothers. In real life.

Can't wait to play this game, looks really good. Any word on PS3 release date yet? I don't imagine that it will be out the same time as the Xbox version because of the Summer of Arcade label.

And why does this need to be on PC? Mods. That's why. Every time either of the brothers says something, it plays Randy Savage saying "Brothers" in the various enunciation. Instantly adds a star to the review score!

Single gamepad coop ahoy. This seems really neat and I like the art style.

'This may come as a shock to you, but I come from a long line of wives and mothers.'

I have a little bro, so I'm liking this game already. I've seen some gameplay of this recently and it looks pretty cool.

You, sir, are a genius!

That camera rotation drift; is that intentional or is your gamepad needing recalibration?

If someone doesn't do this for real I will be very disappointed.

Justin McElroy gave this a glowing review. Said he was in tears by the end and he knows a lot about brothers. Excited to check this out.

This is totally a co-op game, one person holds the left half of the controller, the other person holds the right half. This game could rival Divekick as the most romantic way to play a co-op game.

Actually seems like a very interesting game.

Broth-ers are not broheems.

"There's not a lot of medicine in caves." Based @jeff.

Any details on the PS3 release date?

Not spelling brothers without broth, priceless work Jeff. Wonder if this will be like the one Fatal Frame game where at one point you have to pick one of the two kids leaving the other one to whatever fate there is planned.

Lol, down there definitely looks like Dark Souls.

So how about that rope?

Pick up the bone.

I'd guess Microsoft has secured 3-6 months of exclusivity.

I'm pretty sure you have to pick up a bone to get the key.

PICK UP THE PURSE

you have to burn the rope then use the bone to bat the key out of the map

@authenticm: The way Gearbox has been going lately, I hope that BIA game never comes out.

Man'O'Man

Winter is coming...

Yeaaaaaah, no thanks for now. Looks very interesting, but I'll wait for the Steam version. I just can't stand playing those small downloadable experiences on my 360 anymore. Even though everything is low-res, those games usually barely reach a solid 30 FPS.

I will buy this game if someone shouts "BROTHER!" like Liquid Snake in it.

Da!
I guess this is the problem with games that have puzzles in them...

First quick look with an epilogue.

Ending was priceless :D always listen to Drew

Oh god, that was a fantastic QL, the rope bit was great.

Jeff and the boys in fine form lately!! Love you fuckin' duders!! :)

Kudos to Brad for his dedication to this Quick Look.

Just a brilliant QL

hahaha this is the best

Someone even noticed the broken bar on the cage! USE BOTH BROTHERS TO PULL THAT THING OFF!

Meh, art looks flat, wonky camera, and nightmarish looking controls. Not sure what every one is seeing in this.

Liquid Snake voice would be even better, though!

Can you at least try to pull it with one brother and it gives you a hint that he's not strong enough? If there's no such animation, then that's bad design imo.

Brad was right. It was totally bugged.

Skip to 53 minutes and there is a cut scene missing where the troll looks directly at the key and thecamera zooms in and then you just go over and grab it.
