Telltale Games

Whoa the game's announced! Starting a new thread here to talk about the trailer and whatever else, since the old one was full of leaks and holes.

Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse

Trailer and stuff on the official site

Here's the official spiel: "The new season Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse is the biggest, strangest and most epic to date. As the saga begins, an otherworldy power for controlling matter and space calls to the strongest and strangest who might wield it - intergalactic warlords and eldritch gods, under-dwellers and scholars of the arcane.

Gaming's greatest dog and rabbit sleuths Sam & Max seek the power's ancient secrets, as Max gains shape shifting, teleportation, mind reading and future vision abilities for battling these foes. The saga plays out in a surreal 5 month-long symphony of mayhem that gets deeper and more twisted with each episode."

So how are you guys doing?

You did very well to your credit to keep everything so tightly knitted up until the last few days. A lot of things are leaked so far ahead that when they are launched, the surprise has been spoilt.

Will pre-order The Devil's Playhouse as soon as I can.

Oh man...

I know where $35 of my paycheck's going this week.

sooo excellent.
however, it does look very console friendly. I hope the pc version doesn't feel like a cheap port.

Avistew · 03/11/2010, 03:13 pm

Yay! can finally watch the trailer! brb.

EDIT: can't wait to play it. It looks really interesting.

EDIT2: Hey, there is new stuff there too! In the store I mean. Cool.

S@bre · 03/11/2010, 03:15 pm

Dammit, why don't you people take Maestro! Add some debit card support to your payment options already.

Through PayPal maybe?

Wapcaplet · 03/11/2010, 03:18 pm

So no $5 discount to preorder as IGN mentioned?

JJoyce · 03/11/2010, 03:19 pm

And that art's totally my desktop now.

Be nice to have something a little more hi-res, but it scales nicely, still stunning.

From the trailer, it really looks like TTG has outdone themselves. I was a little worried about this season from some of the questions on the survey regarding features and advertising copy, but...So far it's looking great.

Ecto Cooler · 03/11/2010, 03:21 pm

THe moment i found out this game was available for pre-order, I whipped out my credit card so fast. My fingers were like a blur over my keyboard as I punched in my info. oh man oh man

Sp0tted · 03/11/2010, 03:21 pm

Pre-ordered. SO EXCITED!!!!!

Edgy_McSpoon · 03/11/2010, 03:22 pm

Loving the epic-quality of the trailer. I really hope the game lives up to the hype.

Thanks Telltale!

Ribs · 03/11/2010, 03:24 pm

This screeny made me mucho excite for some reason.

Gman5852 · 03/11/2010, 03:25 pm

I would have not preorderd and waited for a wiiware/xbla port, but i guess that wont happen for a while now will it

so i preorderd it, ahh i have been trying to get a free ep. from telltale tuesday, but through preorders nice too.
EDIT: i dont want to make a thread about this so ill just ask here, how do i claim the free episode, for the preorder and i guess if i win, telltale tuesdays, do i just go to the store and at checkout it is free?

Avistew · 03/11/2010, 03:26 pm

Er, I was so excited I preordered right away, but actually I want the deluxe Monkey Island loot and the tarot cards too... If I had ordered at the same time I'd get free shipping, right? Should I send you an email about that?

(Or does it work if I buy Season 1 & 2's soundtrack? I can't tell if the offer is only about the new merchandise or not).

You can disregard that. The free shipping worked with the soundtrack.

Just regaurd my first question, I found the free code via email.

Gibbeynator · 03/11/2010, 03:42 pm

So, no Gametap this time around? What kind of pre-order bonuses are being offered this time around?
