Pre-Order now available! Release date: April 27!
Hi everyone,
You can now pre-order the first episode of Hector: Badge of Carnage (titled: We Negotiate With Terrorists) for PC and Mac. An Ipad-version is coming later. It's 10 dollars (or 7 Euro's in my case). The release date is April 27, with episode 2 and 3 coming in the fall. That's right, we're getting a BttF-episode, a JP-episode and a Hector-episode all in one month.
Pre-Order bonuses:
* Free version of Puzzle Agent (I own 3 versions of this game by now, but for those of you that don't have it: it's awesome!)
* Access to Private Insiders Forum (I just pre-ordered, but the forum doesn't seem to be up just yet)
* 10% of purchase donated to Japan relief efforts
The minisite is updated as well. You can now watch the trailer and two short animated movies, watch some screenshots and get confirmation on the pre-order bonuses. The about-page and episode-pages are still under construction.

The game looks hilarious, and I can't believe it's only a week away.

Second copy of Puzzle Agent here!
Don't get me wrong, Puzzle Agent is awesome, it just seems a little strange.
To get as many people hyped about Puzzle Agent 2 as possible, perhaps?
At the very least TTG could offer us some proper pre-order bonuses like coupon codes/discounts so people get some actual incentives to pre-order.
I would guess that since just about everything else is licensed to someone, they aren't allowed to give it away for free. Or at least, it's a lot easier to do it when it's something to which they own all the rights to.
Says there are gonna be 2 more Hector episodes this fall, in about 6 months.
Edit: Scratch that, looks like it isn't a gift option like last time.
Aw hell who am I kidding, I'll probably end up pre-ordering it anyway!
I'll probably still buy it, but I'll wait 'til they have something else new I'm interested in, like Puzzle Agent 2 (which will probably also come with Puzzle Agent), and combine the order.
it hasnt been made yet theres not even a hidden one and its just an error ppl cant get in.
But I think the price is problematic. Will the other episodes also cost 9.99?
Will there ever be a season package?
***
Well, forget about it, I bought the game anyway.
I do hope the next episodes will be cheaper though...
Oh, and I now have two Puzzle Agents!
I'd like to give one of 'em to a friend. How do I do that?
This is my worry too. I think I'm going to hang off a little longer.
Especially after the BTTF preorder fiasco.
I would do that... if I didn't hate sending e-mails so much.
I don't, nor will I ever, own an iPhone, but just looking at the trailer has me ROFL like in the good old days. The humor kind of makes me think of Archer, but that's probably even more raunchy than this. An idea for a new franchise there, be my guest.
My only concern here are the system requirements, with 3GB of RAM. That's probably not the minimum though, as I can run the first episode of BTTF that I got for free, just fine with only 2GB.
As Jake points out here, the TellTale engine should be the same with Hector.
Even though it wouldn't work on my machine, I would get an excuse to go and visit my folks and play it there. Plus, it only costs ten bucks, one of which goes to a good cause. Even though it wouldn't work at all (hit and miss, like with the Adventure Bundle) I still could have used 7EUR much more stupidly than this.
I'm fairly sure I made a good deal, but we'll see in a couple of days.
Yes, Hector will be coming to Steam on both PC and Mac.
I pre-ordered but Hector is not showing up under my "Games" tab. Telltale has yet to get back to my query. Is this normal? Does it only appear when it goes live? Puzzle Agent popped up just fine!
Oh well, I guess it'll work fine when released.
Will buy as soon it's out proper, though...
Yeah i now have 2 copys of Puzzle Agent, but i figured what the hell and just bought it early. Dont care when i buy it, just matters THAT i buy it
AWESOME!
If we got JP...
EPIC!
i got 4 copys of puzzle now, 5 if you count the steam version
and i had to preorder twice, cause my first order got cancelled together with jurassic park, lol
edit: or didn't it? i'm confused. OH GOD, i hope i didnt bought it twice.
but the complete order and the first fourth puzzle were also gone from the purchases page, so imho it was cancelled, too.
edit: seems it wasnt. but why the hell was the fourth puzzle agent gone from the purchases page? aaaaaah....
No, you would have recieved an email, or could download it under the My Games section (if you preordered).
