SBCG4AP 101: Homestar Ruiner! - It's Out!

[splash1]

actually, I think you find snakeboxer the game,also.

yes, you find the secret snake boxer manual and if you find it all, you will unlock the secret mode

[Strongsadioware]

You don't actually have to FIND the game, however you have to get the manual for it so you can unlock the Super Secret Forbidden Mode!

[splash1]

yeah that's what i meant

[georgethecow]

well aparently after you finish the game you go into Sandbox mode and explore the environment further

Um. So does anyone know if there's something else to look out for?

[biscuitdoughhandsman]

well aparently after you finish the game you go into Sandbox mode and explore the environment further

that'd rock:D

[splash1]

i'm not exactly sure it's true, i saw it off HR wiki so i highly doubt any of it's true

[Ooze33]

Depends. Where exactly are you?

Ahm in good 'ol Tejas.

[nathew]

Ahm in good 'ol Tejas.

11am central time.

[smellyman206]

hmmm, monday... what an evil day to do such an awesome thing. you telltale people are silly.

[smellyman206]

Ahm in good 'ol Tejas.

Tejas... hmmmmm, that's a weird way to spell teegas. You texasinians, texans, texites? anyway, you tex______ are silly!:p

[nathew]

shall i break out the facepalm? i'm feeling pretty facepalmy right now.

[splash1]

eh?

[someguyfromazoo]

It's probably the tejas texians thing.To smelly, it's a misspelling of the PLACE, not it's inhabitants.

[nathew]

and technically not a misspelling, since that is the original name ;)

[Strongsadioware]

I will break out the mighteh facepalm.

[Strongsadioware]

If you don't change this to a "Comming soon? More like it's already out!" sign, ahem...
"YOU GET NOTHING. YOU LOSE. GOOD DAY SIR....I SAID GOOD DAY!"

[Ooze33]

It's probably the tejas texians thing.To smelly, it's a misspelling of the PLACE, not it's inhabitants.

I was just making a joke on how some people stereotype Texas being a Yee-Ha cowboy and tumbleweed land. If people actually think that, THEY ARE WRONG.

[nathew]

yeah, mostly it's just pollution and bad drivers. with an oasis of awesome called austin.

[garebage]

watch keep cool?...doesn't that mean don't post dumb posts?...

thats not nice

less !s please...

[Rather Dashing]

I bet it would have been out sooner, but Telltale wasted time trying to make a Strong Bad puppet show for the website, and failed miserably. Or perhaps they were trying to bust a pirate out of a bottle.

[splash1]

um that was a Sam & Max puppet show and they were doing the Pirate when episode 4 of Season 1 was coming out

[Bobeo]

1 more day!

[splash1]

yep!
it's almost tiiiimmeee :D:D

[m0r1arty]

So erm... 11th August 2008.

When and in what timezone?

Cheers in advance!

-m0r

[nathew]

i don't think it's coming out on aug. 11th for people who put the date before the month and say "cheers" ;)

[m0r1arty]

You want to use the ISO standard then?

Fine by me, it's a bit punctilious though.

When on 2008-08-11 is the game set for global distribution via WiiWare, and which timezone are you using as a basis?

Ta!
;)
-m0r

[nathew]

i'm pretty sure telltale is based (along with nintendo) in pacific time. that's the united states, homie. not global.

or if you're just pretending to be british or something, and you actually live in the united states or canada or general north american continent, it'll be out at the same time across all them time zones.

[m0r1arty]

Cheers Kiddo, I am British (Scottish actually), and have just come back from Redmond, Washington where Nintendo of America have recently moved from so can gather the concept of PST.

Just thought with Greenwich being so close I might get lucky and grab a first peak.

Cheers for your time and attention in assisting me.

-m0r

[nathew]

ach! aye! yeh'll git yehr gaem sewn ehnoof. ;)

[m0r1arty]

I think you'd appreciate this one more than most.

[Jake]

As said in the other thread, the U.S. WiiWare release will be at 9:00am Pacific Time on Monday. Barring any unforseen insanity, the PC release should be coming in around the same time.

The PC release is of course worldwide on Monday morning (because anyone with a PC can buy it and download it regardless of where they live :)). As for the Wii version in Europe, European WiiWare games always release on Fridays, and Nintendo of Europe tells us that the game will be available on 8/15.

[Iron Curtain]

-m0r

Actually, PST = GMT - 8:00.

I live on the East coast of the US, which is GMT - 5:00.

so EST = GMT - 5:00.

[nathew]

well, with daylight saving time, apparently eastern time is GMT -4. at least, according to the bottom of this page ;)

[Armakuni]

It's 7:17 here now... but it's much earlier than that in the US :(
Blah, still several hours left! :eek::(:p

[azza29]

Hmm... 0900 11/8 PDT = 0200 12/8 AEST

Looks like it'll be a late night for me then... (and yeah, the dates are right, if you're American that's how the rest of the world writes it...)

[Rather Dashing]

As far as I know, George Washington started writing dates that way to confuse the British when communicating plans for the Revolutionary War. It was writing the dates this way that earned us our independence, as Brits stumbled around trying to figure out what Revolutionary forces meant by doing something on the 20-someth month of the year.

[Dangerzone]

Yeah there is still about 10 hours or so left... (from the time stamp of this post)

get some sleep.... :rolleyes:

[Strongsadioware]

Sleep tight, dewds.

[m0r1arty]

It's a shame the Yanks didn't get hold of a Vigenère system or have Lady Lovelace and Charles Babbage on their team - The game would have been out by now "For sure!"

-m0r

[macajeff]

Spare a thaught for us poor people in Ausralia!

Its 2100hrs here in Sydney and still no game. :-(

Sooooonnnnnn........................

So, In other words, Americans write the date like that because they intend it to be confusing. ;)

[Dash383535]

3 More Hours For Me 8:00AM It 5:05AM Here

[NNoah]

so, release at 9:00 PST would be 12:00 EST? I'm a bit confused.

[sonicdude12]

3 More Hours For Me 8:00AM It 5:05AM Here
Wait a minnute, does that mean you get it 8:00AM with the pacific? You'd have to get it at 11:00AM 'cause if you did get it at 8, it would still be 6 in Cali. But that depends where you live of course:D.

[macajeff]

well its 2340 hrs here in Oz and still no signs of the game. Its gonna be a loooooooong night!!

[Ooze33]

It's 10 till 9 here and I'm attempting to wait calmly for this game to come out.

[Givil]

[Tandy 400]

Spell correctly and maybe we'll talk to you.

[azza29]

[splash1]

[Tandy 400]

This reminds me of an email....

...when Dangeresque 3 is coe-ming out...

[ShaggE]

i am so exsited.

There's a cream for that.

[MoFaJo]

so i know the game comes out today but at wat hour and min.

[HitTheRoad]

It's 10 till 9 here and I'm attempting to wait calmly for this game to come out.

I just preordered mine expecting to download it and DO'H! it's a preorder! I should have known it wouldn't be out for a little while longer. :D

This is going to rule. Can't wait to get my hands on some major Snake Boxer V!!!

[Luigi]

ARG!!!

Whah! I can't take it any longer! GIVE ME SOME STRONGBAD KICKING HOMESTAR'S BUTT ON MY WII ACTION ALREADY!

[MoFaJo]

[Tandy 400]

Four minutes? Where the hell did you get that?

And Luigi, calm the f*ck down. It's coming out at 9:00am PST.

[garebage]

[deadlinejon]

[Luigi]

ARG! Not acceptible. *Gets out his compy*

Dear Strong Bad,

Thanks for making us wait for the game.

nub,
Luigi

[Dangerzone]

just ignore them... and maybe it will go away

my personal forum rule #4

"those who are too lazy to check top 5 threads on a forum and those who ignore the forum search function... deserve to be ignored themselves"

this rule is right under rule #3.... It's not polite to swear asshole!

[123123fun]

ARG! Not acceptible. *Gets out his compy*

Dear Strong Bad,

Thanks for making us wait for the game.

nub,
Luigi

Probably alot of people have been emailing him stuff like that, or worse. "Deere stronguy, gimme ur sbscgfapg... game NOWW!!! and MAKE IT FREEEEE! WAHAHAHAHAH!" (Shudder)

[smellyman206]

Ok, why isn't it out now? I need to know! pleeeeze tell me. Or i might just explode...

[someguyfromazoo]

Please do.

[randomworldland]

It comes out 9:00 AM Pacific Time.

[Tandy 400]

I'ma stop swearing now. Infractions not nice.

And smellyman's post is making it hard not to.

[123123fun]

Ok, why isn't it out now? I need to know! pleeeeze tell me. Or i might just explode...

i've posted the times once, but I suppose not everyone likes to look at previous pages. Go to the 16th page and look for the boldly printed times, you might learn something.

[ShiratoriNinjaBrat]

ummm okay it's 11:41
the world goes apeshit blows up and never gets to enjoy 16 bits of strongbadia in all it's vector glory.

war erupts in every bar stall across the globe...
everytime you go pee you get jumped by a strange smelly man in coach Z's mask

all across the world. women and children and piling mud in sadness.
you've been defeated..
the sucks is wins

[123123fun]

.....ooooookaaaaayyy then.

[someguyfromazoo]

Great, you've now given me the fear of what might happen when I go to the bathroom.

[123123fun]

YESSSSSS ten minutes left eastern!!!!! XD

[HitTheRoad]

.... Mmmm, yeah. Moving on, 10 minutes to go. :)

[123123fun]

it would appear we have a mere five minutes or 500 seconds left :3

[ShiratoriNinjaBrat]

actually i really don't feel all that impatient for the game to come out. but everyone is checkin the forums like crazy.

so make up the most ridiculous excuse u can for the game not coming out.

3 minutes!!! hahaha

[123123fun]

ok... unknown to the public, the president moved april fools day forward to august, and the game coming out today was a joke.

[123123fun]

hey i think it's out it must be since the sbcg4ap site is down for editing.

[AwesomeManMcCool]

Yay up. downloading right now. Party fun times to be had!

[123123fun]

im downloading it too :)

[fender1359]

It"s still not on the wii!!!!!1!!!

[ebonypony]

Do Australia get it today? It appears.. not out.

[fender1359]

Yay i got it!

[randomworldland]

Do Australia get it today? It appears.. not out.

Australians get the Wii version in a few more days. Sorry. :(

[ebonypony]

Nooooo... if I haven't pre-ordered the PC version, can I still buy and download it?

[Shmeh]

Nooooo... if I haven't pre-ordered the PC version, can I still buy and download it?

Yes. The season bundle is still available at the same price as those who paid earlier or you could buy just the one episode.

[Dollaroo]

Okay, for all the people who haven't found it on your WiiWare menu, don't worry. Check to see when it was last updated and wait for the day of the week. My WiiWare menu updates every week on Friday.

[StrongMatt]

It's out on Friday, for us non-americans, damn, I wish I lived in the US.

[Bryko614]

It's stupid how much space the WiiWare game consumes on your Wii. I'm probably going to buy the PC version.

[biscuitdoughhandsman]

I GOT IT FOR WII! and currently, i'm like 3 1/2 quarters of the way through! i also have forbidden mode of SB5! TTG I LOVE YOU!!!!!:D:D:D

[RMJ1984]

and ofc i have gotten my Creditcard stolen a few days ago and is still waiting for a new one xD guess ill have to settle for the demo.

[Frozen]

Heh... funny mistake in SBCG4AP episode 1 demo uninstaller :p

[Armakuni]

Hah.. I guess the game is too cool to be uninstalled :p

[ChazzMcSpazz]

YES! IT IS AWESOME!!!! I finished it last night. I kept checking the wii shop channel every half hour and it was finally up at noon. Everything about the game is awesome. And cool! Can't wait for STRONG BADIA THE FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BadStrong]

I'd say that Strong Bad HIMSELF is the one who ruins Homestar Runner, by swiping his trademark shirt while Homestar is in the shower, and hence, causing Homestar to be accused of Public Nudity charges. And I can just TELL that Homestar's nudity will be unnecessarily pixelated.

The world may never know why this person knew the plot in May...

[Strong Ad]

Any idea for next episode's release date?

[BadStrong]

I'm going to guess the 8th or the 15th...

[randomworldland]

Any idea for next episode's release date?

All we know is that it's (probably) released next month. Be a little patient. :)

[nathew]

The world may never know why this person knew the plot in May...

i believe there was video on IGN way back when of the scene where homestar talks about being a fugitive for public nudity.

[splash1]

All we know is that it's (probably) released next month. Be a little patient. :)

it's next month, when Telltale says it is, dude it is

[Guybrush Threepwood]

I got the game yesterday after returning from holiday, and I completed it this morning. I agree with most people in that it was quite short, although there are things such as SB5 and TGS that rack up time... points.... the gameplay itself though was top notch.

I'm going to be writing a proper review this week (hopefully), so look out for that! Woo.
