Telltale Games

roberttitus · 07/07/2009, 11:29 pm

I was never a fan of Wallace & Gromit until these games came out & they have made me a believer. I really enjoyed playing the first game & Watching the LPs of the others (I don't play computer games you see & I am waiting rather impatiently for The Last Resort on the 360... hopefully it comes out today). As to the very few people on here who are saying that they should change the characters up.... I think that would be a major mistake for several reasons. For example, the longer the characters are there, the more that they tend to grow on you. Personally I love every character & I feel that the game series would be ruined without Ms. Flitt & The Major (imagine Sam & Max without Sybil & Bosco.... it just wouldn't work). Also, I think having there own cast of characters adds a certain uniqueness to the games. I hope & pray to god there is a season 2..... I know I will get every episode if there is.

If the worlds, and the places you can explore grow a little, so if, apart from west wallabee street, you can see more places, than oh please. Liked the games very much, and a second season would be more than welcome, no matter wat the sales numbers say, i'll be one of them.

As a sidenote, S&M season one DVD has sold about 80k on the Wii (according to vgchartz).

Actually I rethought the xbox numbers again, and it is pretty clear here. Sam and Max is the better deal, you get the entire season for 20$ while you can get only one W&G for 10$, that explains the sales numbers on the xbox :-)
In the end it looks to me that W&G will do pretty much the same as Sam and Max if you count all four episodes, maybe slightly less. Add to that that porting the game from the PC to the xbox is a low effort thing, and it will make money, no doubt!

Ok.... Am I the only one who thinks it is F****** ridiculous that The Last Resort is still not on the 360? They would rather add a shitty add-on for a shitty game about bugs than make a real game available!? Thats Jacked up!!! Does anybody have a clue when it is coming out?

I thought the same thing at first as well... until someone pointed out to me that Uno and Peggle are among the most successful Live Arcade titles.

corruptbiggins · 07/09/2009, 01:38 pm

Damn annoying addictive Peggle.....

c'ya!

**runs off to boot up his 360!**

I can't vouch for the 360 versions, but I have both on my iPhone and they're very addictive. Unfortunately, my iPhone is starving for some Telltale adventure gaming love... :-(

I think a second season of W&G would be great but as people said earlier it doesn't look like it was that successful. Maybe when the disc is in stores and they finally release the whole season on 360 things will look different but right now it looks like Telltale would be wise to cut their losses, which is a shame because I think they made quite a strong little collection of games.

I definitely agree with you. wallace & gromit was ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT, but Monkey island and Sam and Max were just as awesome, and Telltale perfected them.

Probably you already know this.

But it's been recently released on XBOX Live, along with all the other W&G eppys.

Gryffalio · 11/07/2009, 08:02 am

Wallace & Gromit makes a mockery of Yorkshire!

...Nah.

I'd love to see more Wallace & Gromit games, but they need to keep things fresh. I don't think they can keep things fresh without putting resources towards it (but if it wasn't very successful then the popular MI/S&M etc. will inevitably take first-seat).

zmally · 11/07/2009, 04:26 pm

If W&G was released on retail, for the Wii specifically, I think it would be a huge success, particularly here in the UK, where nearly every household now has a Wii, and is a fan of the shorts.

However, I think it's not logistically possible.

stupidmovie · 11/07/2009, 06:27 pm

It would certainly need to be watered down, but I don't think it would be impossible.

balin2k · 11/08/2009, 05:36 pm

i would love to see a new season of W&G! i love the char's in the games like mr paneer and major crumb. and the whole feel of the game is great! such a simple street where crazy things happen!

Yeah... Thanks... but I caved in & bought them for my PC about 3 months ago.

coolsome · 10/14/2011, 01:07 pm

We need a new series of this cracking game!

flesk · 10/16/2011, 02:16 pm

I'd love another series. The first was a lot better story- and atmosphere-wise than A Matter of Loaf and Death in my opinion.

Olaus Petrus · 11/30/2011, 11:34 pm

I would love to see second series, however it seems unlikely that it will happen. Some people claim that the game didn't sell well and this forum is almost completely dead.

xbskid · 12/02/2011, 08:12 pm

Well, part of the reason that this forum is dead is that it's relegated to a collapsed, 'legacy games' forum.
