Rain-Slick Destined for the PlayStation Network!

As part of our continual quest to bring the Penny Arcade game to every gaming platform we can, we are pleased to announce that On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness is coming soon to PlayStation 3 on the PlayStation Network! The team has actually been working on the PS3 version for a little while now and it’s looking really good.

We are excited about integrating our first PSN title with all the cool features Sony is building on that platform. You can read the official press release, or just stay tuned here for more news, screenshots and announcements as we get closer to the release of this version.

Review Roundup

Reviews for the game have been pouring in since just before release. Here are a few highlights:

IGN
GamePro
Official Xbox Magazine
