OP Comments
Looks cartoony. Eh, I'll let it slide since it's BTTF.
Sucks that it's not on 360. Good thing I bought a PS3 a few months ago.
Looks like it's gonna be a download game, not a disc.
Sources say it's a Point n Click. Telltale, I am disappoint.

Really? Nobody cares? :|

I heard this was a Continuation of the story (After the 3rd movie).

I'll probably rent it since its single player, but depending if I have any cash left.

What the hell...
Well I'm pretty excited for this.
I know I'll be buying the first part.. and if I like it I'll get the rest.

Smart choice on not releasing for 360. They obviously don't want to deal with microsoft with releasing the chapters for the game as they'd probably charge the community and what not. I personally don't think point and click is a bad choice as it's just going back to the oldschool style of adventure games on the PC which makes sense due to it being Telltale. I'm personally very interested as what the story is going to be, can't wait as the BTTF trilogy is just awesome.

I would probably play it.

So, instead of a shitty NES game, we're getting a shitty PS3 game.

Incorrect, no 360 release of this one.

Oops, my bad.

It's a movie based game, it'll be mega shit.
Especially games based off such winfulness as this.

Telltales seem like they can possibly do a good story. With a point and click game the focus is going to be on story. I would probably give it a chance.

I had my doubts too about this game when I first found out about it, cause we all know the history of video games based off movies...

Well, after looking at this video, I can honestly say that I'd love to play it:





My only complaint from what I've seen it the graphics, specifically the "cartoony" look that everyone has. It looks ugly...environments look good though.

Apparently, the cartoony look came from the animated series BttF once had.

Speculation on my case.

I love Telltale games and I'm surprised no-one bought up "from the creators of Sam & Max" during all this. I'm gonna wait until all five parts are out to see whether it's worth my cash, but I trust Telltale can do wonders with the franchise.

Even though it does feel like Universal Studios selling out (see also the upcoming Jurassic Park game from the same developers), and Telltale trying their best - as fans of the properties - not to make them feel like just a cheap, 25 years-too-late cash-ins.

Last night, Darth Vader came down from planet Vulcan and told me that if I didn't play this that he'd melt my brain

In case you haven't seen this interview. Thought you might like to listen.



Anyways, it was an interesting take but what I don't understand is that is this
