Telltale Games

holy crap! this is very unexpected. i could see back to the future working in the tell tale style of adventure-comedy, but jurassic park will be a new experience and formula that should prove to be a challenge and show how versatile these group of people are. looking forward to these epic adventures.

I love Jurassic Park and I am interested to see how this game will turn out. I much rather have another park building JP game but I'm sure Telltale will make something interesting and great!

'kay, so oh my god.

*swoons and falls over*

May this be a sign that video adaptations of movies published by Universal will not suck so much in the coming years.

This is frigging amazing, and its sure to generate a lot of attention for Telltale. Profitable attention. Congrats Telltale!

I wonder if the original actors will be voicing their characters IF their characters are in these games?

Hell yes! I am so excited about the Back to the Future news. That is a franchise I dreamed about seeing as an adventure game but thought would never happen. Brilliant move Telltale!!

i'm not holding out for the original actors to return for these games. maybe the ones who don't have a career anymore like christopher lloyd or jeff goldblum, but michael j fox is right out that's for sure.

why, pray tell, are you resurrecting two basically dead franchises? They are sooo 1990's

Great scott!

I got to start saving money. These titles are unexpected but should, nay, will, be awesome!

meh, just another season, telltale will make it and then it will be over it is only 5 eps, it's not like they're making a season for each movie...

Are you? Now THAT would be good.

AWESOME!!!

..............Back to the Future?


...Back to the Future?


YES.

You're not thinking 4th dimensionally!!!

YES SIR! THANK YOU!

I am in sheer awe right now.

I almost want to believe it's a joke, some hurtful hoax, because my brain might just explode from how amazing this news is. Not just Back to the Future, but Jurassic Park as well... One of those by themselves would be Earth shatteringly awesome, but both? English doesn't have a word to describe how infinitely astonishing this all is.

First, Congratulations!!!!

Second, please tell me that there will be a PS3 demo on the upcoming JP and BTTF bluray releases. Telltale missing out on getting a PS3 demo onto the recent Wallace & Gromit bluray was a sorely missed business opportunity, and it would be disappointing to see the same mistake again.

Other Universal franchises that would be awesome in episodic form: Firefly/Serenity, Evil Dead, and Battlestar Galactica. Heck, I'd even be interested in Heroes in episodic form if Telltale were allowed significant rewrites beyond the first televised season's material.

Hopefully this means 24-bit HD audio for the music -- both of these franchsies have amazing symphonic soundtracks, and giant booming surround sound effects!

omfg! that's incredible!!

I really REALLY have always wanted this to happen. A BTTF adventure game, made by Telltale and episodic. Dreams do come true.

Get out of my brain Telltale! How do you know all my favourite things and make games out of them! You guys pretty much have a perfect record with game titles.

Am I the only one not extremely excited for this news? Puzzle Agent, please.

Eh, I prefer original stuff. I'm worried the bars too high with these projects.

I wonder if the BTTF games will be like the short-lived animated series of the 90's?

Not sure how you will pull Jurassic Park off into an Adventure game. There's dinosaurs eating people constantly there. lol. More like an action game.

I never played a good game based on a movie. I hope that's about to change... what kind of a games are we talking about anyway?

Hu-freakin-zzah! Totally unexpected. Hope this goes awesome for you guys!

I'm excited, but make sure to concentrate on Devil's Playhouse and Nelson Tethers first. Don't do what you did with W&G when ToMI was about to come out (the later episodes weren't a good and felt rushed)

Telltale, kudos on making brave and exciting challenges.
(BTTF made me start the gamer nerd journey I'm on today!)

But you do realise that if you don't rise to the challenge, there'll be a LOT of angry fans, right?
Fans that have wanted BTTF 4 since 1994?
That despise all game versions/adaptations to date?
Who can't imagine BTTF altered much if at all?

I REALLY hope you have Fox, Lloyd, Wilson, Silvestri, Gale and Zemekis on speed dial...
(Or some mind blowingly AMAZING stand ins! Castanella is definitely too costly now!)

Just please...DON'T go the direction of the TV toon. Too cheesy and poorly thought out.

Oh and Universal shares the gamble. A trilogy remake would have an immediate "KILL EM ALL!" reaction. A game? Not so much.

I have my fingers crossed for the first time since you formed and I purchased, that this ISN'T screwed up. I want to believe you'll do as well as usual.

On a side note, I bet Lucas wishes his lackeys never canned the Sam and Max 2 project. XD

id love to see how the heck you can take a pile of dung like jurrasic park and make it into a game with adventure quality.. there have been so many games made for it and all stank badly..

bad move imo..

back to the future has promise but even that would have to be like stuff that happened in mid times not the movies themselves..

idk im not liking either idea.... but only time will tell

btw what is with the movie games.. im lost here.. was there a yard sale?

"Holy crap!!" was going to be my call. But freakazoid beat me by a long way :)

Congratulations are definitely due, Back to the Future seems kind of like the ideal title for Telltale to take on after all their time-travelling hijinks so far.
