And that’s not all, folks! All versions will be launching simultaneously, so everyone can play on day one and not have to worry about those spoilers you’ve been successfully avoiding for the past fifteen years. (Pro-tip: stay off Twitter.) "

Hot of the E3 news that Double Fine will be re-releasing Grim Fandango on the PS4 and Vita is this new documentary by 2 Player Productions featuring Tim Schafer. Grim Fandango is a classic adventure game and seeing more on it's history and development is seriously cool.
