Telltale Texas Hold'Em If You (Yes, You) made Telltale Games Television Commercial.

If you made a television commercial for telltale games what would you do?
Post your ideas, no matter how ingenious or stupid they are, the good people of telltale games want to hear!


Heres my idea:
Its set in the 1950s, its filmed in black and white and it basically looks really old, everythings slightly sped up as those old films are. You can hear audio.\

You see various people doing jobs; milking cows, hanging out clothes, raking gardens etc. and then this little kid (8 years?) starts running around to all these workers,
'Its on the telly!' he cries, 'Everyone, its on the telly'
Everyone drops what they're doing and runs after the kid, at an impressive pace, the kid slows down and you see a wall with a small tv on it.
Everyone watches in amazement, you see short snippets of sam and max, sbcg4ap, bone and wallace and gromit playing (also in black and white)

Then on the tiny tv comes up the Telltale Games Logo in colour,
And a voice says, "Telltale Games: Gather Round"
Oh and "Telltale Games: Gather Round" is written under the logo but not in colour.

Start posting!!!!

It would have shots of every character from every game turning turning to look at the camera, and in the background an epic song would play, like Requim for a Dream.

Marzipan: Okay, Life Blossoms! Today we have a guest speaker, and his name is not Lameface Mcdieinholefaceface. His name is Hugh Bliss!

Hugh Bliss: Hey kids! What time is it?

Homestar has his LURN shirt on.

Homestar: How to stop pixilated dragons time?

Hugh Bliss: *giggles* No, that's not it!

Gromit has a LURN shirt on as well. He just makes handsigns.

Hugh Bliss: I'm sorry, but I can't hear you!

Sam, Max, the Bone cousins, and Strong Bad burst through the wall.

Sam: How about "Five great episodic gaming series with great ratings from IGN and other popular game sites and if you order the whole season slash series you get a free DVD at the end of said season slash series" time?

Hugh Bliss: Nope!

Max: Ohoho, you just flunked...

*a light blue screen is seen while grunts and crashes are heard*

Someone: Since you probably didn't understand that, Telltale Games features some of the best point n' click games you could ever imagine. From the famous Strong Bad from homestarrunner.com, to the popular suspence show CSI, to Britsh claymation comedy show Wallace and Gromit. You must be dreaming? Nope, your imagining. Telltale Games: Games for your imagination.

Sam: Five great series...

Phoney Bone: Five great episodes...

Marzipan: I dunno, it sounds dumb.

Max: *pulls out his gun* Say it....

Marzipan: *sigh* FINE. Four you.

Strong Bad: *quick* We are not responsible for any acts of amazement, adiction, or sex appeal. Visit telltalegames.com!

Homestar: Telltalegames.net: It's Dot Com!

Ok, so it's this guy, sleeping at his laptop, drool spilling all over the keyboard.

Are you bored with your current gaming experience, Jeff?

Wh-wh-wha? Who said that?

Jeff sees that his computer is talking to him!

Are you bored with your current gaming experience?

Uh...yeah, I guess...these games are all so long, boring, and unoriginal!

How would you like a new, original, episodic, point-and-click-em-up adventure game delivered to me each month, starring popular franchises like CSI, Bone, Sam and Max, Homestar Runner, and Wallace and Gromit?

That sounds awesome! But, sometimes I don't want to play at my computer...no offense...

None taken, Jeff. But these games are also released to all your favorite consoles, such as the Nintendo Wii, and soon, the Xbox 360!

Wait...how much will this cost me?

Less than $10 a game, and anywhere from $20-$30 for a series.

But what if I bought one game, then want to upgrade to the full series?

You get a reduced price. Sound good?

It sounds great! But, where can I find all this?

Go to www.telltalegames.com, Jeff. You'll be playing in no time.

Ok, let's go! Open up the internet!

What am I, your slave?

END!

It shows a black screen and you hear Sam saying:

Sam: We are observing your earth.

Max: Hey Sam, have you seen my gun?

Sam: Max! you ruined the mood!

Max: Sorry.

Strong Bad: Hey guys.

Sam: Strong Bad is trying to steal our gaming crown!

Max: Found my gun!

(Bullet shots are heard)

Strong Bad: Uh, gotta go!

Sam: Looks like we scared him off.

Max: I'll just put this picture on the screen and we can go for some ribs.

(Max's hand appears from the bottom of the screen. He puts a picture on that shows the telltale games logo with the url)

But...Max swallowed his computer. I hope by "pay once. Play forever" you mean 'pay for a new computer. Pay once. Play forever.'

Strongbad pops in a generic Japanese RPG appropriately titled "Generic Japanese RPG" and turns on his game system.

Shortly after that, a title card reading "FIVE HOURS LATER" pops up.

Time Jump Cut back to the TV and a cutscene is playing, but Strongbad is nowhere to be seen. Quick pan over to his computer and you see him playing Sam & Max. He turns to the camera and says "At least in this game, I can actually play through the story. If I wanted to watch 2 hours of computer-generated cinematic cut scenes, I'd just sneak into the newest animated family feature film featuring generic talking animals."

Title Card with the TTG logo pops up and Strongbad is unfortunately bookended by Gromit and Max, both looking at Strongbad disapprovingly. Strongbad turns to Gromit and says "Oh, don't worry. I actually paid to watch your film." He then turns to Max and says, "And yours!" Max gets visibly angry and the commercial cuts just before he leaps onto Strongbad for that dig.
