    So, is the 24,95$ for all 5 episodes?
    And can you use it for PS3? Do you just download chapther 2,3,4 and 5, when they are released?
    Will I be able to use it in any country of Europe? (I'm from Denmark)

    Thx..

    Pre-ordering the whole season costs $24.95, although it's not clear if that's some kind of special pre-order discount or if the season will cost that much after release too.

    Pre-ordering it off the Telltale Store gets you the PC/Mac version. If you want the PS3 version, you have to download it off of PSN.

    Not sure if it'll be available in Europe. Someone else might be able to answer that better than I can.

    Why is the pre-order 24$ Isn't the first game free?

    The first episode is only free if you use a particular promo code.

    The $24 pre-order price is for all 5 episodes. I don't know why, since i'm not familiar with Telltale's pricing. =I

    Yep. A normal Telltale preorder is about $35, so when one of the episodes is free, that makes it about $25.

    Which would be a bit dissapointing for those of us looking to get it on the PS3...unless it's available for pre-order on PSN now.

    You just pre-ordered for PC, not PS3.

    Hi everyone. Forgive the question if it's a no brainer (i'm a newbie). I purchased the pre-order for the BTTF game a little while ago and have noticed that I get access to the PC and MAC versions. I did notice an iPad logo at the base of the screen though. Does this mean the iPad version is included as part of this package? Or would this need to be purchased exclusively via iTunes?

    You would need to purchase it via Itunes when it's released. Also this was just posted, in case you had anymore questions.

    That's the right attitude, Sikboy! Only a few weeks! ;)

    I'll put you in the FAQ thread nonetheless. We haven't heard anything about a Steam pre-order date yet.

    The "logic" here is just baffling.
  • StraythStrayth
    edited December 2010
    For instance, will it be free on Steam, or on the PSN ?

    I understand that Telltale wants people to buy through their store. While with Steam, it's completely understandable (any Pc gamer HAS the choice), the Playstation users absolutely can't do anything about it, so it doesn't really seem fair.

    So do you guys plan on making it available for free on every platform or just the Telltale's website ?

    Thanks !

    The free episode will only be available through the Telltale Games website.

    Will it just be available to download on the site or do I need to sign up for something first?

    Planning to order this later anyway, need to sort out my paypal account first.

    Well I at least hope the "full season order"'s price on PSN is close to the Telltale's one.

    Otherwise it's just really unfair. (The ps3 version is coming in 2011, I guess that means all episodes are going to be delayed a bit, we can't preorder, nor get a DVD/bluray at the end of season, nor bonus content, and we'd have to pay more ? o.o)
  • jp-30jp-30

    Nothing to do with being 'unfair'.

    Sony take their cut when they sell it on their download service. Whereas Telltale get all the revenue when they sell PC/Mac versions on their own website.

    So if Telltale are looking to make the same profit per episode sold, they can do so with a lower price point on the PC/Mac version.

    (Yes, and they'll take a hit with Steam sales as they're sold at the regular PC price, but the marketing to a captive audience of Steam Subscribers probably offsets that).

    Or something.

    Its a better deal to buy directly from the source... CRAZY!!
