According to the Frequently Asked Questions thread, or FAQ for short, where people can see the answers to Frequently Asked Questions, or FAQs, hence the title of the thread, the game will be either called "Back to the Future: The Game. " or "Back to the Future: The Adventure Series".

Which one do you prefer, or do you prefer it to be called something else? Also, why?

    It's "Back to the Future: The Game" now, officially. "The adventure series" was an idea from IGN, I think, which never even came close to being official.

    I was always opposed to calling this "Back to the Future: The Game", because this feels so uninspired and done to death. On the other hand, there will be individual titles for each episode, so an additional season title might make this far too long. I think the die is pretty much cast right now, but I'd long for an actual announcement of episode titles...

    I don't like "Back to the Future: The Game". It gives the strong, immediate impression that this is a game adaptation of the first Back to the Future film.

    Back to the Future V.

    (Remember the conspiracy that TOMI was MI6 :p )

    I agree. Though Back to the Future: The Adventure Series makes it sound like the original movies aren't 'adventures'.

    Ok let me think of a few episodic names.

    Back to the Future : Continuum
    Back to the Future : Space Time
    Back to the Future : The Paradox

    ... Nah, I like 'Back to the Future: The Game' better.

    Kinda ties in with the whole 'BttF: The Animated Series/The Ride' thing in a derpy, yet nostalgic sort of way.

    Not that I'd support the idea, but it would have been interesting to see the actual title "Back to the Future" altered. However, we'd have to presume that this would be a rather bad idea from the marketing standpoint. ;)

    Yeah, the second part should have been called "Back to the Past. No, the Other Past. No, Too Far, Back to the Future, There ya go"

    Technically it's Back to the Future Part IV

    So there. Now the question is... who will be the fourth person looking at their watch on the poster?

    Better yet...

    "Forward to Time Past".

    To be Honest, "Back To The Future: The Game" suits the Game well, I thought of "BTTF: The Next Generation" but the Game doesn't take place in the New or Next Generation. also I thought of "BTTF: Jiggowatt Flux"..but no "BTTF: The Game" is just fine. ;)

    That would eventually result in like 8 people looking at their watches on the poster after 5 episodes :D

    Not essentially. Considering the only "cover art" is for the disc release, the whole season would only get four characters(should they go that route in terms of packaging design).

    'Back to the Future: The Game' bttf never really had any subtitles so I wouldn't add any, also I wouldn't be opposed to calling the episodes Part 1,2,3,4 and 5.

    That, and I am damned sick of seeing the title, "The Game" added on. But at least it is better than the title, "Peter Jackson's King Kong: The official game of the movie."

    Honestly, I think it should just be called Back to the Future.

    Nothing added on to it, just Back to the Future.
