If you're anything like me, you've probably felt that if there's something Telltale needs, it's more licenses.
Well thank god almighty, then, that Law & Order: Los Angeles has been acquired! Read all about it here. So how many licenses does TTG have in the oven right now? Seven including the ongoing Back to the Future, give or take? Plus three franchises currently at episode one stages for the iPad?
"Yikes" comes to mind.
No Telltale, naughty! No more licenses for you until you've finished the ones you've got!
And they're leaving a cemetary of abandoned things... no localizations, forgotten conversions, xbox missing, no bug patches for any game.... :(

After releasing Tales,It seems to me a lot of parts that made the company great took a turn for the worse.
I certainly felt a lot of optimism in the wake of TMI (particularly episodes 3 and 5, which approached a LucasArts-level of brilliance) and I no longer feel that optimism. It's hard to explain, but yes, more licenses (well, not licenses - more games) probably isn't the solution :(
Seriously Telltale, slow down.
Try to get your current projects out the door without the buggy releases we've come to expect.
Oh, and a less abysmal customer support would be nice too.
I don't want to sound like a nostalgic whiner here, but what happened? After releasing Tales,It seems to me a lot of parts that made the company great took a turn for the worse.
