Telltale Games

SHODANFreeman · 07/07/2009, 01:56 am

Basically, if the game were released for every platform, which one(s) would you prefer to own?

moo535 · 07/07/2009, 02:33 am

i like xbox live arcade but this game isn't really set up for console control. that's why they chose the wii. if that natal thing makes point and click games more intuitive to play i say bring every telltale and and lucasarts clasic right on over. adventure games on console are like twenty hour long interactive movies. having everyone in the room trying to solve the problems is so much more fun.

i remember having a group of six people all playing broken sword 1 on the ps1. it's great fun people just throwing out random idea's. that natal thing would mean upto four people could actually work the puzzles at once. without needing controllers.

but it's all just pipedreams for now.

Darn it! I forgot to select 360.

Oh well, PC, 360 and Other (Dreamcast!!!!)

Lechuck31 · 07/07/2009, 02:39 am

PC of course

PariahKing · 07/07/2009, 03:36 am

I wish I could get it for Super Nintendo.

Now remember If MI was on PS3 they could code it to be both on PS3 and PSP for once purchace price like they all ready do on Playstation Store.

jp-30 · 07/07/2009, 04:01 am

PC and Wii

You do realize that Natal is a great Idea!
But in reality a ton of people will buy it then trade it in when they realize it is very much a gimmic.

Example Natal for a racing game sounds AMAZING!
But then you think about it.
Would you really hold both of your hands in mid air moving them like a car while resting the weight of your arms and hands on nothing just midair for a few hours? How about 1 hour? Go ahead try it.
It becomes not fun very fast and you start wishing you had a controler or game driving wheel in front of you.

PC & 360, but we all know PC will be its true home

Traz · 07/07/2009, 04:10 am

I play MI 1-4 on my PSP all ready!

Not the best video and not my video but shows MI3 working with Scumm VM.

The PC version of course, but if I had more money than ever needed in this adventure, I'd also get it for the Wii or DS. I think that point and click adventure games are pretty much misplaced on a console that has only a traditional controller.

Couldn't you hold a frizbee, or something? Considering the stupid Wiimote attachments, you can bet there will be a crapload of similarly ridiculous 3rd party Natal 'add-ons' come out.

^ This. PC is where it began. PC is where it belongs.

jp-30 · 07/07/2009, 04:38 am

It "belongs" everywhere. Or at least in as many places as technically possible.

You just gave me a great idea for a new XBOX product! A contoured pillow that you place in your lap to rest your arms and keep them in the "driving position"! With embroidered XBOX logo on it. Only $19.95!

I'm going to be rich!

Yeah but that takes away at the entire idea of not needing any controler etc.

Bah Natal is an old idea just look back to the Playstation 2 and the Eye Toy or how PS3 has Playstation Eye.

Anywho

COME ON MI come out allready!!

Rather Dashing · 07/07/2009, 05:07 am

Only the PC. If it showed up on XBLA I'd play the demo out of sheer curiosity, but I simply wouldn't want to buy a Telltale game anywhere other than their store.

thin029 · 07/07/2009, 06:16 am

360, PC, DS, iPhone

Swan · 07/07/2009, 07:43 am

PC & DS, it'd be great to be able to take it anywhere with you & play
