Here's a fifty - go in and order a Pepsi

At PAX, the representative of The Spoony Experiment, one Spoony, went to Telltale's Back to the Future display and taped an interview with Dennis Lenart, the director of the series' first episode. The video is right here.

Lenart isn't able to say a whole lot, at least not a lot that you wouldn't know already, but due to the caliber of the questions asked I still recommend giving it a watch - the part that concerns you begins at 3:00.

It must be noted that, very much opposed to Bob Gale's earlier statements what he "thinks" would be the release date, Dennis Lenart keeps repeating what we knew all along: "This winter." "This winter." "This winter."

Addittionaly I never hear people asking about the style of the game. Is it going to be 2d or 3d? If 3d, like Sam and Max and TMI, how exact can the concept art we've been seeing translated into models?

Grossman tells over and over again in interviews that they will stick to the engine they've created and mastered. So, undoubtedly, it's going to be 3D. The BTTF concept art shows exactly the same style as the ones for Tales of Monkey Island and Sam & Max: Season 3 - Telltale's character models are really excellent at this point in time and reproduce the details of the concept art very accurately .

I've always enjoyed Spoonys work he does some very entertaining videos. Some people have slagged him off recently for been too full of himself (and kinda selling out) but I think its all part of his character. He looks at some of the worst video games and movies made and even makes his own rifftraxs every now and then.

Nice interview but he could've poked a bit more..

Interestingly, Lenart said he couldn't say anything about other voice actors that would be recognizable, as they want to slowly reveal and announce those type of hot scoops. To me that almost says Michael J Fox is going to do Marty, just noticed on imdb he did a BTTF game in 2008 as well.

I'm loving the excitement around this game, it's really great to see Telltale has landed such a big title and getting all the attention from the mainstream gaming media. Great stuff!
