    Hey everyone I was just on IGN and saw this recap...I was like sure I've played the games but I'll watch it but here's the thing at the end of it, there is a brief glimpse at episode 5.

    http://www.ign.com/videos/2011/06/22/back-to-the-future-the-game-recap

    Spoilers? maybe?

    Nothing out of the norm really untill you get a quick glimpse of Marty using his hoverboard again (trip to 2015 anyone?) AND a flying delorean chasing a driving delorean!

    This is gonna be an insane episode isn't it

    Something really spoilery there in that video:
    Edna steals the DeLorean!
  • edited June 2011
    Oddly, the video makes the game look very action-oriented.

    The closing shot was brilliant.

    I'm willing to bet a considerable amount of money that the Hoverboard WILL eventually make an appearance.

    I LOVE being right about stuff. No one was betting back in February, unfortunately.

    I have but one question: will we be DEFINITELY finding out who the real "speakeasy arsonist" was??? I'd like to know THAT much before playing!

    I still think it was Edna... because in one of the pics for episode 5 it looks like she's being arrested and she was caught planting dynamite around tannen's new speakeasy.. so that's my hunch we should find out tomorrow

    Where are the pictures I keep hearing about??

    if you hover over the games tab at the top of this page, select back to the future then select episode 5 under media, there's the behind the scenes vid and then there's images from episode 5

    Okay, second or third time watching that video, I noticed the buildings vanishing while Marty was watching. At first I thought I wasn't seeing it right and that it was a glitch, but they were definitely fading. McFly! What did you DO?! :eek:

    Maybe it's the timeline catching up with the citizen brown timeline... Finally back to good old 1986....I think

    I just got another idea. It's a crazy one, but...it could be right.
    Edna steals the time machine, goes back and prevents her grandfather's death, then dies herself leaving the wrecked DeLorean.

    Oh man, going that far makes me start thinking about all sorts of cool plots they could do but probably don't have enough time left to introduce.

    Like what about others eventually discovering time travel? Doc can't be the only one.
    Unless he and his family work to keep the secret because of the dangers involved. But wait, one of the plot ideas Telltale offered up in a poll early on involved a time police sort of organization that tries to regulate time travel, and that the main characters have to avoid or work against to get things done. Which is pretty much the opposite of that first thing I said.


    Maybe when Marty and Doc travel to the future (whatever year it is) the screen cuts to an early morning from that year, where a man who resembles doc is talking to a guy who resembles Marty standing with a camera next to a car (not a delorean). Then Norwegian terrorists come out of nowhere and shoot the guy who looks like doc. The guy who looks like Marty climbs into the car and drives away, chased by the terrorists. Just as the car reaches 88mph and sparks begin to fly off it the delorean appears with Marty and doc in it and collides into the other car, which spins out of control and doesn't travel through time. Then doc says 'Looks like I missed one. Thanks Marty.' and doc explains he spent several years travelling through time and killing off everyone who tried to invent time travel so that he would be the only one.

    If you want to be spoiled about the identity of MJF's character, click below:
    Go here: vip.telltalegames.com/files/bttf/screens060711/BTTF105_willie.bmp ... see the name of the image? It pretty much confirms that it's William McFly.

    How is everyone saying the Delorean has been "duplicated" in the second movie? There never was any duplication. If your refering to after Doc disappeared, the time machine being buried in the mine, thats just timeline. No duplication. I also like how people have made up words for the game like "temporal duplicate". When the lightning bolt hit the car, it destroyed most of the circuts but not before sending doc back to 1885. THATS IT! No Duplicate Doc. As for the theory of Citizen Brown setting up the events that occure in Epi1, thats really not thinking fourth diminsionally. you send the car to the future it will be the future of the current reality. You can't mix go between futures of timelines A and B. Thank Part II for that. Doc explained the Delorean coming back to Marty in Epi 1. Automatic Retrevial.

    In Ep 1, if you select the right question to ask the incarcerated Doc, he explains that the DMC duplicated when hit by lightning the for the second time (the first time it likely shorted out the time circuits). A lightning bolt provides more power than 1.21 GW (1 TW).

    yeah and that's probably why the time circuits are so screwed up... because they needed to be reinforced with titanium...

    they did make a point of having doc work on the calibration of the time circuits in this episode (something hinted at in the dream sequence) including the automatic retreival settings. So I'm thinking marty borrows one of the deloreans caught in the time loop to chase after doc. Since it's set to loop, he can just leave it alone and it should arrive back where he got it from. Maybe this miscalibration is what propels them into the future? This would be an interesting twist; in the trilogy, aside from the second trip to 1955, trips into the past are accidental and doc/marty are stuck in the past needing to find a way to get back to the future but the trip to the future was voluntary and they got to leave as soon as they wanted to. It would be neat to be stuck in the future especially since unlike being stuck in the past, you dont know what is going to happen when you are in the future.

    Maybe what could happen is doc tries to set things right with young edna but she turns on them making doc realize she is a bad person and thus gives up on fixing her timeline.

    You may or may not be right about the last time departed theory. It is necissary for that to have shorted out because if it was working marty would have no reason to go meet edna. But the only digit that was clearly shown was the '2' in the millenium spot so it's likely the last time departed was the future.

    In ep.1 though, doc says he saved the delorean from 2025 so maybe that time was messed up (:eek:) so it only shows the 2

    Not titanium (Ti), terrawatt (TW). 1 GW=1,000,000,000 W. 1 TW=1,000,000,000,000 W. 1 TW can power 826 time machines and still have power left over.

    no i was quoting what fcb said in episode 4 when the time circuits kept having him show up at the wrong time... he said they needed to be reinforced with titanium... i know what a terrawatt is

    So, the people calling MJF voicing Willie might be right, since the promotional image for episode five seen in the subsite which contains press images labels one of them Willie. Which on this PC suddenly changed into the Flux Capacitor image thingy logo thingy thing thingy. Thingy thing thingy.
