Whoah, just noticed this. They just literally sneaked this must-have game into Steam store.

Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons

Edit: Before you cry and whine about Steam's misinformed warning about the controller requirement, let it be known that you can also play the game using your keyboard.

it's a dual stick platformer... kinda, it would be a pain to play it using only the keyboard.

Not that I don't agree with you about this game, but The Binding of Isaac is a "dual-stick shooter" and I played 165 hrs of it with just my keyboard.

Some PC Elitists need to open their eyes and realize that some games are better played with a gamepad, period.

This game you control one character with the left analog stick and the other with the right analog stick in a 3-D environment. Do you think 4-way WASD and arrow keys would give you better movement and control?

mouse for one keyboard for the other perhaps, ive played most consoles over the years and the wii's the only one i didnt like though didnt have one myself so perhaps id have gotten used to it had i bought one regardless i prefer k/b & mouse for pc games, as to games being better with a pad well on that id disagree for some games itd be as good as but say RTS games as an example while you can get em playable with a pad it adds uneccessary difficulty im talking c&c3 being harder on the 360 from personal experience, ironically my first c&c game was on playstation many years ago

Yes, RTS and FPS are clearly games that are better with K+M.

Racing and fighting games are games better played with a pad.

Flight games are better played with a joystick.

3D action games and platformers are those that can go either way. Pad is my personal preference.

I have to agree and disagree with you here bobafatt. While I do feel the same about those categories, I also feel that the option of either is there because we all feel more comfortable playing differently. It's evident amongst those same elite keyboard mouse gamers who complain that they can't remap the keys. If they remap the keys then they aren't playing it with the keyboard layout provided and as such are no different than players who wish for controller support or better K&M support. It all comes down to the player. We get used to what we use most and basically train our brain to play that way.
Sorry for the bad grammar and run-on sentences.

+1

You'd think a PC port would at least be playable with PC controls.

Then again, maybe this is better. Consider it a partial port, for controller people only. Better than teasing us with the promise of a full port, only to deliver an unplayable mess.

+1 - It's better and easier duel controls on keyboard, unless a console fan boy kiddo...

The game was made to be controlled with twin sticks. It's its basic mechanic.

Playing it without controller will probably take tons of effect from story, through.

Just got a link to this game from another thread, and it looks neat. Of course, I dunno' if I can run it. Still, wishlisting it.

This game I saw ages ago when it was still under development. Looked pretty sweet and quality gameplay, well worth it if the keyboard controls work alright!

EDIT: Game is easy breezy using the keyboard to control both brothers at the same time. Puzzles are simple, the game could be rushed though, but still lots of fun and looks quite pretty.
