Telltale Games

Mysterysheep · 03/13/2010, 03:59 am

I just came in here to say "Thank you, Telltale. Thank you so very much."

It says that 10 lucky ones will get the penal poster!

Has anyone yet gotten it?
Will it really be only 10?
Are the copies are numbered and signed?
Will I get one?

Good idea to set up this thread, I can't get enough sam and max, even bought this one on PC instead of Xbox as I can't wait for the end of the series to have it. will probably buy both though. Great hook from telltale, e-mail me about the free ToMI DVD and get me to spend pieces of eight on Sam & Max and other ToMI merch!

Hoping this series will have ToMI interface as I thought that was great, would also benpleased to see some crossover between games, ToMI or CSI references in Sam & Max.

Can't wait until April 15th, Bannanggggg!

Not sure about this, but I think those will be handed out at the end of the preorder phase - so that it won't matter when you preordered.

Again, it's just a guess, but I'd be surprised, if anyone here gets a poster before April 15th.

I agree - it took some time to get used to it, but after a while I preferred it over the usual "click-to-walk"-technique, at least in 3D environments.

Will this game even be on XBLA? On the games page it shows PS3 but no Xbox, have telltale fallen out with Microcosts.

Remolay · 03/13/2010, 07:37 am

that just means it's not starting on Xbox. It may be released on XBLA later

1. What do you guys think of the Broken Sword series? Have you played them, if so are you fans? What improvements would you make if you made a sequel to the series and were left full creative control?

love broken sword. Best game on original Xbox and no backwards compatibility for 360. Would be amazing if telltale could start making these games too, I'm sure they'd be very popular to the monkey island crowd.

Not related with French, but for the Fun With The Languages Of The World Section:

South Africa has 11 (eleven) official languages: Afrikaans, English, Ndebele, Northern Sotho, Sotho, Swazi, Tswana, Tsonga, Venda, Xhosa and Zulu. Plus 8 (eight) recognized unofficial languages: Fanagalo, Khoe, Lobedu, Nama, Northern Ndebele, Phuthi, San and South African Sign Language.

Any official document/communication must be written in at least two official languages, and any recognized unofficial languages deemed apt, depending on context.

Bolivia has 38 (thirty-eigth) official languages: Castillian Spanish, Aymara, Araona, Baure, Bésiro, Canichana, Cavineño, Cayubaba, Chácobo, Chimán, Ese Ejja, Guaraní, Guarasu’we, Guarayu, Itonama, Leco, Machajuyaikallawaya, Machineri, Maropa, Mojeño-Trinitario, Mojeño-Ignaciano, Moré, Mosetén, Movima, Pacawara, Puquina, Quechua, Sirionó, Tacana, Tapiete, Toromona, Uru-Chipaya, Wichí Lhamtés Nocten, Wichí Lhamtés Vejoz, Yaminawa, Yuki, Yuracaré and Zamuco.

Any official document/communication must be written in at least two official languages, depending on context.

Isn't it a Wonderful World?

And, let's play a little game: do anyone of you know which is/are the official language/s of USA?

I found it quite uncomfortable to have to continuously apply pressure to the mouse button for walking. One simple action shouldn't require a continuous mouse action (and I don't like using keyboard controls). It's also takes away from the leisurely pacing of an adventure game. I can live with it, and I expect them to keep it as it's probably more suitable for consoles, but I really wish they'd keep this aspect point-and-click.

Varies by state, there technically isn't one on the federal level.

...I've lived in too many parts of this country. I shouldn't just know that from life experience.

Right!

You won one of the 10 Penal Zone posters! ... No, not really, sorry

saltski · 03/13/2010, 08:06 am

In terms of controls, could support be added for a logitech Spaceball or spacepilot? this would remove the click and drag fatigue from a lengthy play session.

It would be also really really nice to support the "old" DirectInput pads in general!

CannonMan · 03/13/2010, 08:16 am

Preordered this on PC AND bought season 2 on Wii from Atari!

Amaterasu · 03/13/2010, 08:18 am

Woot!
I'm also in!
After ToMI, I can see TT is really on a roll here!

And talking about rolls... May I wish we see a Rickroll in S&M's 3rd season? XD

MussKatt · 03/13/2010, 08:23 am

Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww thanks a lot for the moments. You guys are awesome! Yay for TTG

Haha, if only! I love that poster design so much. If I won it, I'd definitely buy a movie theater poster marquee to frame it. It'd be beautiful.

zmally · 03/13/2010, 09:31 am

I bought Season 1 on retail for the PC, then for the Wii. I've been waiting patiently for season 2 for wii ever since, and I've ended up buying season 3 as a preorder!

I still haven't played 2 lol

I see your point, but on the other hand, it has a (in my mind) huge advantage in large sceneries, where you need to walk from one end to the other. Remember the dining room in Maniac Mansion? Or those jungle/temple/street locations in Zak McKracken? I really can't stand this clicking-every-two-seconds.

In 3D Adventures with those camera angles changing all the time, it's even more frustrating to me...

Well, I guess this is a matter of taste... Maybe the developers could implement both controls, with an option to switch between them.

I don't get it.. Why are people talking about Telltale making Broken Sword. Revolution is still around, and, just because they're working on a new IP doesn't mean they won't get around to Broken Sword 5.

Have telltale been talking about bying the rights to the series?
