Telltale Games

martymcfly · 09/10/2009, 10:33 am

hey guys!

Some of you may know me as the guy who has been interviewing Dominic Armato after my Tales Of Monkey Island reviews. I am a recent graduate and aspiring writer who is basically just writing as much as possible. I have just bought my site and will be redesigning it in the coming weeks (as well as taking on new writer, already have 2 new names you will be seeing!) I want to annouce some stuff, and then ask an important question!

So heres some of the site's latest stuff...

Tales of Monkey Island Spinner Cay review:
http://alternativemagazineonline.co....f-spinner-cay/

What Dom Armato (Guybrush Threepwood actor) thought of the chapter:
http://alternativemagazineonline.co....-armato-think/

Worms iPhone review:
http://alternativemagazineonline.co....-worms-iphone/

Not one but TWO reviews on Tarantino's latest, Inglourious Basterds:
http://alternativemagazineonline.co....ious-basterds/

But wait! This is not just a shameless plug. (Well it kinda is, but only because you guys have all seemed so nice and interested in what I have been up to!)

My question is as follows. I have access to all of Telltale's back catalogue, and I want to know what you guys want to read about most, after Monkey Island of course!

Sam and Max,
Wallace and Gromit,
or
Strong Bad?

Drop me a line here to let me know!

guitarsareboring · 09/10/2009, 03:59 pm

Definitely Sam and Max

martymcfly · 09/10/2009, 04:46 pm

That's one vote so far

although if I do Sam and Max will probablly have to do a review of each season as a whole, with sections for each episode. (Otherwise would be far too many reviews for one writer!) Would be interesting to interview Steve Purcell actually as a tie in! I may look into that...

What do you mean after Monkey Island. Sam & Max destroys it.

Telltale Series' from best to worst

Sam & Max
SBCG4AP
Monkey Island
Wallace & Gromit (Although I like it more than Monkey Island, its lack of brain teasing puzzles brings it down)
Bone
CSI

I was confused as to why I couldn't find my post in this thread when I discovered there's an identically named thread in the TMI forum. Why two threads?

Iron Curtain · 09/11/2009, 03:32 pm

My Order will go like this:

SBCG4AP
Monkey Island
Sam & Max
CSI
Wallace & Gromit
Bone

Edit: Whoops, didn't realize I copied someone else's editorial opinions. Sorry, that PAX pox must have been getting to me.

Sorry about that, I forgot to add the poll on the this one and must have forgotten to delete it! Also, I usually post there (TMI section) rather than here in the general section. Didn't want to delete this one seeing as a few people have already answered. I wish there was a way to merge them!

Rather Dashing · 09/13/2009, 08:41 am

After Monkey Island?

Well let's see, Monkey Island is after Sam and Max and Wallace and Gromit. So, after Monkey Island, my next favorite would probably be SBCG4AP.

Yep, that looks about right.

phaedon · 10/10/2009, 06:24 am

-_- No CSI as an option at the site poll

Murray the Chao · 10/11/2009, 01:30 am

Sam & Max, of course!

der_ketzer · 10/11/2009, 03:04 am

Sbcg4ap

Woodsyblue · 10/11/2009, 03:50 am

After Monkey Island, you say? I'd have to go with Sam & Max, specifically season 2. Also, while not as good as Sam & Max season 2 I'd like to give a shout out to Wallace & Grommet, who are severely underrepresented in the gaming community.

Apolli0n · 10/11/2009, 10:07 pm

I have not played all of Telltale's titles but I rank the ones I've played as this:

1. ToMi
2. Sam & Max
3. Wallace & Gromit
4. CSI

phaedon · 10/12/2009, 04:27 am

Why does everyone put CSI that low ?

I don't know, I haven't actually played it... but I assume...probably because it's not funny?

Wallace and Gromit - it's got such charm. Amazing.
