Reviewcast: Limbo

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

Posted in Reviews by Aaron and Alex Leach

Classic

Summer of Arcade has already begun, and the mighty Microsoft has kicked things off with the release of the dark and moody Limbo. Get your inner goth on with Aaron and Alex as they look at what makes this glum game worth your happy dollars. Also, if you’ve already finished the game, be sure to stick around after the usual closing thoughts for some spoiler-iffic talk about the game’s story and themes.

Intro Music: Jen Titus-O’ Death

Middle-tro Music: DJ Dangermouse, Sparklehorse & David Lynch-Dark Night of the Soul

Outro: Johnny Mandel-Suicide is Painless
