    NO WAY! NO WAY! NO WAY! NO WAY! Strongbad rocks and this is from Telltale! NO WAY! You guys rock! Now I can't wait to hear about pricing and the exact release date!

    Now, which version do I buy? PC or WiiWare?

    wow. I know I didn't see this one coming. I heard there were two new properties, and didn't expect Homestar Runner's Strong Bad to be one of them. I might have to break down and get a Wii now. . .

    . . . if I can find one.

    What if...what if...what if Sam & Max made an appearance? Could you imagine how awesome it would be to have Sam & Max talk to Strongbad?

    Sam & Max, Bone, and now a Homestar Runner game... It's like they're picking my mind of all my favourite things!

    So... that's about 9pm GMT, I think.
    Will the Wiiware and PC games come out at the same time? I'm swaying towards getting the PC version, just because that's where my gaming heart lies.

    Great license! This is gonna be awesome.

    Also, though I'm a proud Wii owner and will surely be buying the WiiWare version of this game, I'm happy to see that the series won't be limited to the service.

    If Modestly Hot Homsar doesn't feature, you're getting some angry fan mail...

    I can't wait to play SBCG4AP! My biggest hope, though, is that we get some more coherent thoughts out of Senor Cardgage :P

    I had nothing to do with this and deserve no thanking. The flash was done by the Chaps, the in-engine 3D stuff by Nick and the massive massive amount of webpage stuff soon to be released is Doug, Jake, Mike, Eric and Emily.

    And I could list all the guys who made the engine, modeled the characters, etc, but that's pretty much the entire company. They rock.

    Sorry, that's what I meant. :p It was a typo. Sewiously you guys.

    Actually I'm pretty sure it said "rabbit dog" in the script. :p

    :p

    Wait, does this mean we could see some Strongbad merch in the Telltale store in the future as well?

    I didn't think I would be as excited or surprised by the new game announcement as I am for some reason. :D

    Actually, if we're going to be completely honest here, I was torn between putting 'rabbit' or 'rabid', only to decide on the latter. And then along came my typo! I'd personally say that 'rabbit dog' is probably better because of the fact that the second name is either a bunny or a man.

    And as this post ends, my sleep is soon to begin.
    No, wait, forget that! Coffee here I come!

    I misinterpreted that as being refreshing for fanatics. I'm not a fanatic of refreshing, sadly, since our DSL is slugging along slower than ever before. At least I can see the H*R trailer - and I love the art style! Considering that H*R characters are notoriously impossible to express in 3D, I like how the gameplay retains that flat hand-drawnlylike-shaded quality. Unless I only imagined that, in my insomnia-induced stupor - I should watch it again.

    I'm aware of homestarrunner.com, been a few times over the years to check out Peasant Quest etc, but don't know much about the characters there at all - however the trailer (pure win) has really piqued my interest, so now I have another way to procrastinate during the workday! Thanks Telltale.

    We just posted this in the interim: http://www.telltalegames.com/strongbad/faq

    Most of the info in there will be familiar to a lot of you, but you never know. The rest of the Strong Bad site is coming soon, still.
