Personally, I didn't like Telltale's Wallace & Gromit games (I played the first one) but I can't put my finger on a good reason, other than Wallace isn't voiced by peter Sallis. Although I did enjoy the previous W&G game, Project Zoo. It might be Telltale's style but it just makes me a bit worried about the new Monkey Island episodes. Maybe I'll give them another try. |
BANNED  Posts: 2513 Joined: 3 Dec 2008    | You know, I like Telltale Games. They continue to provide adventure games of decent quality, providing light-hearted humor in a games industry chalked full of pseudo philosophical, testosterone-fueled bullshit. I think they're what the games industry needs. I haven't played any of their games really (sort of discrediting my statement of "decent quality") but I honestly want to play all of them. Especially SBCGfAP as a huge Strong Bad fan. It also seems that ValvE could take a lesson from Telltale on how to do episodic gaming. User was banned for: The artist in thee. (Permanent) |

Paperboy  Posts: 42 Joined: 26 Mar 2009   | Hmmm, I never really saw Wallace and Gromit as an adventure game. Most games based of children's programmes (well hardly children, it's Wallace and Gromit) as platformers, but it's good to see a ompany deviating from the same "slap the models in and a few obstacles". |

The Wallace and Gromit series I'm liking alot, currently on the third of the current season (I assume they'll do more after the season is over). That said, the Sam and Max games wheren't quite right to me - maybe its because there was relatively little source material to work off - only the original game and the cartoon series. As for the Strong Bad games, I get the impression I'd like them more if I knew the comic series more. That said, I'm very much looking forward to their Monkey Island series - a final return for one of the best point-n-click adventures to date. |

I'm very weary when someone says they want to make a game that is like a movie, it usually means gameplay gets neglected. |

This got me thinking as to why it is actually called that, apparenetly we have the Byzantiums to thank for it.

I adore the Sam and Max series and i cant wait to play the new Monkey island. I have to wait though cause I'm working. *mumble mumble mumble draw draw draw* -Jon |
