When Double Fine announced that instead of making another big retail game, they were instead working on four downloadable titles, I got excited. Brütal Legend was a game with an amazing atmosphere and direction, but it felt stretched too thin over a not-quite-as-strong gameplay system. So when this news hit, I thought "Of course! This way they can focus on what they do best, like writing and art direction, without the game outstaying it's welcome." The first of the four projects, Costume Quest, is out now on XBLA and PSN, and we get to see if this was indeed was the perfect move for Double Fine as a developer.
