Bastion is a story about a Kid, his hammer, and a world gone all kinds of wrong.
Start Pre-Ordering Bastion for PC, Then Nab the Soundtrack
I love Greg Kasavin but this game is getting more attention than others because of Greg's history with the core of the GB crew.Or is it getting the attention that it deserves because its one of the ebst games to come out thies year, especially for XBLA. Or maybe because hey dude? There's no other games right now
"Contemplating" fat guy who constantly states he would buy every game that gets mentioned on this site, but only for the PC, will be pleased.

I'll never understand your attachment to physical media. What you want is on the disc itself, cut out the middleman and the clutter.
Loved the game enough that I'll get it on Steam as well, and I bought the soundtrack the moment it was available.
Beautiful, beautiful music.
I'm a little pissed that it wasn't even hinted that a PC release was potentially this close. Steam's much more my platform of choice and with the PC version launching this close they could have at least given us a heads-up that the wait was going to be weeks (instead of years like it was for LIMBO and Braid). Or did I miss something?
They said they were aiming for "fall." I think they didn't want to give a cemented date just in case it took longer than expected, but they DID say it was coming by the end of 2011.I'm a little pissed that it wasn't even hinted that a PC release was potentially this close.

I'm gonna wait on getting the soundtrack until I play the game first but if I like this as much as I think I will, day (something) purchase
Keep in mind that the "Summer of Arcade" promotion does come with an exclusivity deal of sorts. Part of it probably involved them not being able to say definitively when the PC version would be released for some amount of time. Gotta drive sales on the console end somehow, right?I'm a little pissed that it wasn't even hinted that a PC release was potentially this close.

Game looks pretty great. I'm going to briefly entertain the idea of a just world where this game sells more copies than the latest Call of Duty.
Okay, now back to reality. Get this game, fools!
