Telltale/Gametap relationship to continue? 13 Apr, 2007 / Comments: 2

By Jason


Quick, before you fire up that Friday the 13th marathon, check out this quote from yesterday's Sam & Max Finale press release:
"Sam & Max: Season 1 is a testament to the fact that true episodic gaming can be successful," said Ricardo Sanchez, GameTap's vice president of content. "We look forward to continuing to work with Telltale on more groundbreaking projects."
So, okay, it's no surprise at all that Gametap would be involved with season 2, and I'm only even pointing this out because the last we heard on the subject from Dan was that Telltale was considering other partners. It sure sounds like the second season will see Telltale and Gametap together again, which is definitely a good thing from the way both companies talk about the current collaboration. Make of the exceedingly vague "more groundbreaking projects" what you will.

    Hmm, maybe they can boost up the budget for Bone as well...?

    Seeing as how SnM are consistently the most played games on GameTap, they'd have to be nuts to just drop that off on another company. Telltale has done such a good job with this, and the fans seem to love it, and would most likely follow Telltale if they went somewhere else. I am sure plenty of groups are waving money TellTale's way. Dan's statement a few months ago may have just been a way to get more money out of Gametap.
