Sorry, I meant Back To The Future Trailer! Make like a tree, and go and see it right now!

What, you want me to post it right here? Oh, all right, if you insist.

Update by Mr Manager ("we just say manager"): There's also a behind the scenes look which is worth checking out. Do it! (Thanks to "mightypirate" for the heads up.)

    The Youtube version is up on the Telltale channel, and the lip sync is much better.



    Thanks. That's going in the news post.

    Facial expressions will probably be more animated too.

    Jake has said on the TTG forums that the lipsynching in the trailer is not how it looks in-game.

    Yeah, I didn't bother to comment on it because I thought this was obvious! Telltale always does good lip-synching.

    Yeah, I was wondering about that Talltale-thing too. Telltale can't be opening a second studio or anything like that, surely? I'll just assume it's some sort of joke I don't get.



    The timeline changes and it becomes the Telltale Games logo properly at the end there...

    Anyone eles notice the logo at the beginning says talltale instead of telltale?

    It's supposed to be like the photograph in the first movie as the name becomes the final name. At least it seemed that way to me :P

    I seem to remember a line of dialog in one of the films having "tall tales" in it, so it's probably a reference.

    But yeah, the trailer looks okay, but the gameplay snippets from those behind the scenes-movies make me really excited about this. And I agree with elTee, getting rid of the monthly schedule is probably a good thing, even if it means I'll have to wait a little bit longer after the first episode.

    I'm almost certain the lip-synching looked bad because it the visuals and the audio were taken from different sources. After all, TTG have done fairly good lip synching work in the past, so there's no reason to think it would be that bad.

    I still unsure how people couldn't be a fan of back to the future...

    I thought the trailer was reasonable enough, should be fun to play.

    I guess the last part with Marty driving along with a angry/determined/not very well animated expression on his face seemed rather drawn out and humourless. Just a teaser of course.

    Neato. Didn't blow me away or anything, but I'm not disappointed.
    Maybe it's just me, but none of the telltale character models really come across as believable. Bad lip syncing aside, it feels like they "emote" but they don't "act". Still better than 99% of other video games...

    Impressive, other than the lip-syncing.

    Looks like they managed to keep the BttF feel quite well, all the way down to Huey Lewis. Excellent voice acting; interesting sounding plot from the little that has been revealed.

    I liked the movies, but not enough to call myself a true fan of them. In that sense I'm getting surprisingly excited about this game.

    Hi guys! There is a lot of other material in this Behind the Scenes footage! http://www.gametrailers.com/flash/umremote416e.swf?mid=707353

    Enjoy!

    This should have the broadest appeal of a Telltale game so far, and it captures the feeling of the movies well enough. I'm glad they've dropped the rigid monthly schedule (although for all I know they already dropped it for Sam and Max) just so they have more time to polish the episodes.

    Anyway, I'm looking forward to playing it :)

    The voice overs are kind of weak (besides the Christopher Loyd's lines) and the trailer shows very little, but still it looks rather promising.

    Thought it looked awe-some!!

    If the timetravel puzzles are good and the quirky humor from the movies are present, I'm sold..

    On a sidenote, I would like to mention that I'm born in december, 1986 - so this kinda rocks on my part!! :)

    Keeping in mind I'm not a fan of Back to the Future, the trailer kind of left me...meh. The bad lip synching (which, keep in mind, might've been the video) didn't help.

    The episode names were short and nice, and didn't give away the story, though.

    I guess I'll save it for a rainy day.
