The International House of Mojo

The Gamespot article (and a few others I've seen in print) have misrepresented Tristan's role a bit. He is very involved with the stories, but as an editor, not as the lead writer. The scripts are written by Telltale's designers (Andy Hartzell, Joe Pinney, and Sean Vanaman) and then sent to Tristan, who takes an editing pass before the script goes to Aardman for review and final approval.

It's a different process than what we've done before, and I think the collaboration with Tristan is an important part of making sure the series is authentically British. But I want to make sure our hardworking writers get their props, too!

Once again, I've failed at replying. This was of course supposed to be in response to Kroms' comment. :P

Yeah, I found this while I was searching for some impressions of the demo Telltale is showing at Wondercon. I haven't really found anything yet, except for this weird thingy, which probably is a bit useless:

"All that said, the Best of Schwag goes to Telltale Games at Booth 644 for its giveaway of a Strong Bad game to every email provided, as well as a promise for a sneak peek at Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Adventures week after next. Tomorrow, Steve Purcell of Sam & Max fame will be at the Telltale booth live and will draw from the fishbowl of emails one lucky winner for the giant autographed sculpture of Sam & Max."

Do they mean to say the episode is going to be released the week after next week? The episode seems to be finished, so it could be possible, although I don't know how trustworthy this post is. Found it here: http://contentnow.wordpress.com/2009/02/27/wonderconbest-of-schwag-steve-purcell/

Interesting, hiring a writer for the story, especially because of the number of great writers Telltale has. I can find two Tristan Davies', but I guess the one the article is talking about is this one.
