Yes, it’s that time of year again. The summer (and its accompanying Summer of Arcade) are fading into memory, and the cold bite of winter’s wind will soon be upon us… but not today! Today we’re looking back and forward with 505 Games’ Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, which kicked off the SofA on XBLA back in early August and will be releasing on PSN and Steam this coming Tuesday; so whatever your platform of choice, we have you covered.
We’re not stopping there, though, as in a fortuitous case of happenstance, 505 Games is also releasing Terraria on iOS devices. And that means codes! And not just iOS codes, but XBLA and PSN as well — those codes will be dropped on my Twitter account over the next week along with other past 505 releases (not all 505 of them, but still).
HOW TO ENTER
I am an only child. My parents beheld my awesomeness and decided it would be a cruel turn of fate to bring another Green into this world to perpetually wallow in my shadow; after all, there can be only ONE highlander. Anyway, this game got me to thinking: what if I could choose someone(s) to be my brother? Who would it be?
So that is this week’s question — to enter simply post who you’d pick to be your brother along with your console preference in the comments section below. If you’re interested in more format than one just list most desired on top. Also, if you’re on Twitter please include your @handle as well. If not, just make sure the email address you enter is valid.

Winners will be selected on Wednesday, September 4th. All entries must be submitted by 8 PM EDT/5 PM PDT on Wednesday. Please note that although anyone can enter you must either be following me on Twitter or submit a working email address to win.
Good luck!

I have a beautiful sister who always cheers me up when I’m feeling low and I’m so proud of what she has achieved. Basically I have no need for a brother, she’s like a sister and brother in one. My best friend in the world. I have played the demo of Brothers and just from that I can see it is an amazing, beautifully crafted, emotional experience. Definitely could be this years Journey. Should I be lucky enough to win a copy I would like Steam. Thanks for the opportunity. 🙂
