View Full Version : Telltale video site!!!
Whoa as part of the huge SBCG4AP site re-launch, we've also stealth-launched a new HUGE part of the Telltale site: TTG Videos (http://www.telltalegames.com/videos)!
We unearthed as many videos as we could find from the last four years of TTG, and put them together on what we hope is an extremely easy-to-browse network of pure bliss.
Check it out (http://www.telltalegames.com/videos)! Feel free to rate up videos you find enjoyable :) We should be adding comments and a few other goodies in the coming week.s

Nice, I'm really curious what we are going to see there. I always like those behind-the-scenes-at-Telltale videos, and I miss the Interim theatre, so I'm glad this happened.
But, why does every Telltale-series get its own 'channel' except Bone (or Texas Hold Em, but that's not really a series)? Are you only giving the active series their own channel (and does this mean we can expect more CSI from Telltale in te future)?
If you will excuse me, I'm going to watch that hilarious puppet show again.:)
I'll try to get some themes made for the other series at some point :)

Who is the cartoon guy next to the voting? Is it anyone specific?

That would be Kevin Bruner, if I'm not mistaken. By the way, great idea for a new section, Jake (or whomever came up with the original idea). I was beginning to miss the Interim Theater myself.

From a user point of view, it would be nice to have a "Games" page that has all of the stuff in the "Explore Videos by Category" section. From a developer point of view, it would be stupid to create a whole new page for this, but the first place I looked for the game categories was along the top of the page. It took me a while to find the game logos down at the bottom of the page.

This sort of thing -- maybe not exactly what you described, but better browsing and listing and displaying of categories -- will probably happen eventually.
Embedding support just went up, and we should have comments soon.

D'oh! I'll get that up soon. Don't know how it fell through the cracks.

It's worth noting that the "Check out Wallace & Gromit!" link at the top of the Wallace & Gromit page links to the Sam & Max page. Unless Wallace & Gromit are secretly distant cousins of Sam & Max, that should probably be fixed.

That's awesome! I love the German Telltale Poker commercial... XD
The Season Two trailer's now up: http://www.telltalegames.com/videos/sammaxseasontwotrailer
Also the weird 70s/80s bad horror sequel trailer that is Ice Station Santa is now up as well: http://www.telltalegames.com/videos/icestationsantatrailer
I forgot the foreshadowing of the Mariachi and the snow devil in those.
Also, bonus: This is probably the first time people have seen the War Song in widescreen. (Coming soon to the Wii retail version.)

I'm not bothered if you can't get them up in iPod format as I can convert it myself, but a download option would still be nice. ;)

Right now the big roadblock is in transcoding things to all sorts of formats. We don't have an automated infrastructure for that :)

Did something go horribly wrong in the bathroom, or did he have his stomach pumped?
The real question is: did he really swallow it?

the other real question is: why did he even eat it?

I would love to see something else up in the video section too...BONE video's. I know its been sorta pushed out of the way for the forseable future but im sure i remember a couple of videos floating about...please!!!
It was one of your first projects and you should all be shouting about it as it was a great series!!!:D

All you need to do now is put the Bone logo in the 'Explore Videos by Category' bit and I will be satisfied. ;)

Any chance we'll be able to see which videos have "most thumbs this week" vs "most all time" or such? Or perhaps have the ratings reset and be able to give another thumb to a video after a few weeks to be able to see what's consistently popular?
(I hope this post makes sense, I've been up since 6AM and it's now 1AM, I'll see in the morning, haha)
Nobody really noticed but we secretly launched comments on the video pages. Check it out sometime.

Heh okay maybe they're too subtle right now. It's the little talk bubble next to the "share and embed" tab on each video.

Ah yes. Is there any chance the comments count could be listed with all the other information too? :)

You guys need to put a search bar for certain videos and put like all sorts of other shorts in a Misc section.
There is a search bar... Have you tried clicking the button that says "Search?"
I don't know what you mean by "all sorts of other shorts." Are there Telltale videos you remember that we haven't got up on the site?

We didn't make those. They're made by Graham Annable. He graciously let us use a couple as part of the Interim Theatre series, but they're his videos, not ours. You can see all of them on his youtube channel at http://www.youtube.com/grickle

There's a Search Button?!
Yes, I have the original trailer of the Cow Race, the 2007 PAX Sam & Max Make a Scene, or is that still there? Anyway you need to add a section that places the Telltale stuff from the game stuff.
http://www.telltalegames.com/videos/aroundtelltale perhaps? :)

Could you add the machinima short "Kitchen Consequential"? When working on the Sam & Max Wiki I noticed that's the only one you're missing.

Not to be a nag but will there be a chance of possible subtitles to be included in future videos so deaf people can enjoy the access of the video section as I'm deaf and I love Sam and Max and Wallace and Gromit but sometimes feel restricted from being able to understand what the video/narrator is saying in advertising the games etc, Although I am glad that the games are subtitles and I do hope that the XBLA games will still have the subtitles with Sam and Max and Wallace and Gromit
Subtitles will definitely continue on to the XBLA versions of the games, of course!
Adding subtitles to the video page is a little iffier, unfortunately, for the two reasons of our having what is now such a huge back-cataloged collection of un-subtitled video, and us not really having the web tech to implement such a thing currently. If the possibility comes up for us to do it in a way that wouldn't destroy us, I'm sure we'll give it a look. Thanks for the suggestion, and I'm glad you're enjoying the games!
