Well what would you know?

Hey turns out it is a bone game. Full credit to all those people guessing it 6 months ago .

bone eh.... well lets wait and see on this one I guess. I don't really know much about this bone thing. too bad it wasn't dott2 or something. Question is how long are we going to have to wait for it. Q3 maybe?

> too bad it wasn't dott2

With all due respect, it was NEVER going to be a LucasArts property.

I'd never even heard of Bone prior to the speculation thread(s) way back when, and then I followed the link from the Telltale Community page.

And personally I love the idea of a 'fresh' adventure game, rather than rehashing pre-used characters from older games. It also lessens the weight of expectation from the older game's fanbase.

From what I saw, the settings and characters in BONE shoul make for a wonderful Adventure series.

So, Telltale, we got some sort of timeframe yet? 2005?

all i have to say is "sweet!!!"

I'm excited! Now I've got one more reason to get right into reading that complete Bone graphic novel book that I've put off starting.

Hi Im kinda new here, first post I think... But I try to visit often, for I am a huge fan of adventure games, like all of you... )

Enyway, its not a surprise for me that the new license game is not a new MI or S&M or something like that.. i dont think we'll see one of these in the near future (nor far...)... But still. I never heard of this Bone dude, can anyone spill some info? Im really interestred in telltale new game... My expectations are high... I want a new adventure game already (

Woohoo! I can't wait! Haven't read the comics (I don't think they're very well-known here in Europe, where French and Belgian comics dominate) but I visited Boneville and it all looks very interesting.

Besides, I never heard of Sam and Max before that game came out either

Man, I haven't read the Bone comics in a loooong time...but I'm looking forward to this game! Bone definitely has the opportunity to turn into a great adventure game.

"I never heard of this Bone dude, can anyone spill some info?"

Bone is a series of comics books, that, as far as I know, were released as graphic novels (not syndicated in newspaper). You can go here at Amazon.com to preview some of the first few pages of volume one to get a look at what Bone is like.

This is the best place to start;

Wow!
I had already bought & read the "Bone One Volume Edition" I found on www.amazon.com.
I think it's perfect for an epic and humorous adventure game: great characters, complex and dramatic plot, tenderness, intrigue, funny one-liners and a LOTR-like wonderland.
The perfect way to kick off a company.
Keep up the good work, TellTale!

I can't wait, although I wonder if it's going to follow the storyline of the comic (which has the distinction of being the only comic book I've ever read) or if it will do it's own prequel/sequel/alternite story thing? Hopefully it isn't too close to the book, wouldn't want to be stuck knowing the whole story from the get-go.

I've seen the character before, just never read any of his stuff. I'm sure that Telltale will do a great job with the game. Good luck guys.

well i dont know anythin about bone..so should be interesting

where is teH demoooooo?




(UT2k3 /2k4 players might know what I'm talking about B-) )

looks great

to bad it isnt s&m2 )

There goes my hope out the window...

Although this looks decent, I wish it was something I was familiar with. Oh well...

yes hopefully we don't have to wait forever for this thing to come out. The only bad thing about knowing about a game is waiting for it to come out. Take GT4... I've been waiting forever for that game but thankfully I'll run out and buy it tomorrow. How far along in production is this game?

Looks like it might be interesting. I'd never heard of bone till I saw the news but reading the pages from volume 1 (available in the library section of boneville) and it looks like a good comic. So I'm looking forward to this.

Just need to talk my wife into letting me buy the one volume comic book. (I know it doesn't cost a lot, but I'm not allowed to spend money at the moment )

... sounds of a whip cracking in the distance....
