Isaac Clarke returns for another heart-pounding adventure, taking the fight to the Necromorphs in this thrilling action-horror experience.
Originally announced as multiplatform title, including PC,

PC product page, but whether this means the decision has been made or not, nobody knows (thanks
Blues).

Another busy week has come to an end! We had quite a few events to attend over the past few days, including Microsoft's X10 gig, so expect some interviews and previews in the next few days.
We have a DVR full of goodies to work through, and last night, we watched Human Target and Psych, but it's still more than 40% full of other TV series. I foresee that the couch will get lots of loving this weekend.
