Telltale Games

Hector: Badge of Carnage, probably the most random of the announcements. I checked the trailer and it looks HILARIOUS! An unexpected gem.

Thoughts, questions anyone?

coolsome · 02/18/2011, 04:15 pm

It looks funny as hell I'l probably get it.

Secret Fawful · 02/18/2011, 04:16 pm

I like the humor. I probably won't buy it, but I'm not against it.

DrRocketGenius · 02/18/2011, 04:18 pm

Is this based off something? Looks neat.

*Irishmile* · 02/18/2011, 04:31 pm

Seems like TTG is pretty much just going to distribute/publish the game... So its not really a TTG game....

Judging from the trailer it does look decent.... I will give it a shot.

Woodsyblue · 02/18/2011, 04:34 pm

Well they do say in the press release:

Quote:

We're continuing the comedically raunching crime story, with Episode 1 already in the iTunes App Store, in a partnership with Straandlooper Studios. We're also bringing Episode 1 to PC, Mac, and iPad. Watch the trailer above.

Though the way it is worded it is hard to tell what they mean.

Edit: Looks like Telltale aren't doing their own: source. But that's fine.

In a way, it is. Straandlooper, the developer, was originally an animation studio that made a kid's show for TV and as a series of iPhone apps. They tried to get a Hector show made, but Irish television is too focused on reality shows these days, so they went ahead with a game of it. Straandlooper's only small and all the voices are done by one guy. This might be their big break!

LOVED the line when he's in the clocktower and says "Something about this place rings a bell" over the 'dong' in the background. I couldn't stop laughing at the promo.

GeorgeC · 02/19/2011, 01:51 am

This is for the app store only right?
This gives me more incentive to win that ipod touch on ebay :P

DAISHI · 02/19/2011, 01:56 am

No Hector Ep 1 is coming to the computer followed by other eps.

Teeth · 02/19/2011, 02:11 am

I'm definitely gonna get it. It looks like a modern successor to Conker's Bad Fur Day. Especially with all the voices done by one guy.

Astro Gnocci · 02/19/2011, 05:45 am

It's the only one of the announced games that actually has me interested
(i might check out king's quest as well, but i'll admit i've never played the old ones, so i don't really care much about that one. Oh, and i liked the first few walking dead comics, but i dunno... not sure how i feel about a game based on it).

So yeah, i'll probably check it out, at least it looks like i might run on this lame old comp of mine.

Hayley the Hedgie · 02/19/2011, 07:50 am

It was made in Northern Ireland. And though I'm not from there, still that makes me extremely happy.

JedExodus · 02/19/2011, 01:55 pm

I'm a Nordie. But being a big old Fenian I just say i'm Irish. Studio's about 40mins away from me...everything in Norn Iron's always 40 minutes away actually

doodo! · 02/19/2011, 02:37 pm

Wow, very adult for TTG in my opinion.

guitarsareboring · 02/19/2011, 02:54 pm

Well I'm sold. When can I preorder?

For those of you who don't know... this is Gok Wan. He forces people to take their clothes off in front of TV cameras.

JedExodus · 02/19/2011, 03:03 pm

Gok-Wan confirmed for new years honours

How I envy him.

*Irishmile* · 02/19/2011, 04:15 pm

I forgot to google that.

Hayley the Hedgie · 02/20/2011, 04:52 pm

I'd love if Gok Wan made a cameo in the game. XD I'd die of laughter.
