Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Review
Platforms: Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 (reviewed) I’d have thought you crazy if you were to tell me that the same studio responsible for The Darkness and Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay was going to make a game that would affect me emotionally more than any other game released this year.
