So.... episode 2 ready or not?

Mixinmojo say Telltale have said will be available tomorrow as a season purchase or upgrade

Can't find anything about it here, though, and (obviously) I'd like to be able to tie in my purchase with whichever BTTF DVD I eventually select....

Thanks for the link!

I hope it does come out tomorrow, I need something to distract me from the misery of missing PAX. Twice as long sounds like a very good thing too!

Joystiq says the same but sources Mojo. A few other reports but they seem to have picked up Joystiq. IGN has a page dated today entitled Hector: Badge of Carnage -- Episode 2 - Launch Trailer Video (http://www.ign.com/videos/2011/08/24/hector-badge-of-carnage-episode-2-launch-trailer), except the video is actually the Episode 1 trailer, LOL.

I also saw a report on an iOS site that Episode 2 is already available on the New Zealand App Store.

EDIT: Checked the Straandlooper (http://www.straandlooper.com/) site and it seems to confirm: "Episode 2: Senseless Acts of Justice hits the App Store, Steam, and the Telltale Games site tonight at midnight." Post is dated August 25, though, so I don't know whether they mean their midnight tonight, about 20 hours from now, or Telltale's midnight August 25, which is still more than 24 hours away. :p

Hector Episode 2 seems to be available on Steam already, though I haven't tried to purchase and download it. Episode 3 listed for September 22 there.

Just bought the "full series" on steam for 4.99 euros before they changed the price to 14.99. That was weird, maybe the made an error?

[FitzoliverJ]

Apparently also available for iThings.

So this is available everywhere... except the Telltale store? Why?

Yeah, kinda weird that we're hearing about this from everyone BUT Telltale.

A bunch of their people (especially the community-oriented ones) are at PAX right now, so they may be a bit thin on the ground in the office.

True, but still weird. I hope it shows up one the store soon.

I'd like to think they would have the foresight to a) leave one guy at the office to announce the release of their new game, or b) have a laptop with them. ;)

Nah, I'm sure we'll hear something, eventually. :)

Well, I bought the season upgrade yesterday.

(I figured, knowing TTG a bit, that if I'd buy Ep. 1, a season upgrade would be cheaper in the long run. And yes, Ep. 1 was $9.99-$7.49=$2.50 and the upgrade is $9.99 -- a total of $12.49 instead of $ 19.99. 'Though knowing TTG more, it's bound to be reduced within a year or so with their special discount offers :) )

Anywho, I was looking on the blog for a release announcement, but they're only reporting on PAX. So I just checked My Games and hey presto, there it is, patiently sitting there, waiting for me to scoop up a healthy 630 Mb of digital mayhem.
