Did I not see this in Best Buy?? Published by Team 17???
@joey302 That was The Escapists 2.
Okay...
I find it really odd that this gets a strictly limited release while The Escapists 2 is available at retail...
@Silly_G Well going by the reviews, 2 is much the better option, so presumably less interest in 1.
@TheDragonDAFan ahhh! Ok
@gcunit : That's what I hear, which made me wonder why they even bothered to release a physical version of 1 at all.
Either way, good for those that are keen on this.
Hard pass, The Escapists 2 sounds so much better. I'm a big fan of limited releases but in my opinion they missed the mark on this choice.
@Silly_G Yeh. For me personally, if they put the two games in one box/card then I'd be interested to try them, but a limited release of an iffy and bettered game is not for me.
@contractcooker Escapists 2 really is much better.... I've played them myself to spot the MUCH needed differences, like Multiplayer!
