In interview with Telltale, 1up was able to get some interesting quotes from Dan the Man Connors, CEO of the company. Most notably with regard to the company developing original properties:
Asked how soon we might see an original project, Connors replied, "I'd say the earliest would be 10 months, and the longest would probably be 18 months. We can do so many games in a year, so an original is reasonable to squeeze in there somewhere."You can check out the whole piece here.
Dude. WEIRD.
In this case it's nice to be wrong (or at least quoting outdated information).
Sorry to be the spoil sport. It's just that speculation kills part of my soul...
