    Yay! It's finally up! Still no confirmation on it coming in December though, I guess I'll just keep hoping.

    Honestly, I'm not holding out much hope. They would have had to announce the release date this week, that they were releasing it next week, for it to come out this month.

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not the bear holding a shark!!!! Trogdor, you murderer!!! I even looked away when you killed Rather Dashing but this... YOU WILL PAY!!!!

    *Sigh* Still, what is up with that room straight out of Reality 2.0 in the screenshots???

    What kind of deity has that much time to waste?

    Aand another thing-

    is it likely to come out before Decemberween?

    These screenshots solidified my belief that this game will be awexome. Somehow, seeing Strong Bad in the lineup of Mans makes me think that we may be playing through a 3D level of Stinkoman 20X6 as Strong Bad....

    Well, it must be SO big that there ISN'T a game for the Videlectrix Fun Machine, because it looks like Strong Bad actually goes inside a realm that is INSIDE the Fun Machine! Want me to say it? Okay.

    WELCOME TO VIDEOLAND!!

    Seriously, something like this reminds me too much of Captain N: The Game Master, another great show released by Shout! Factory, the people who released Sam & Max: Freelance Police!

    Wait, in one of the screenshots, it depicted "Halfathlon" in the background. That must be the game du jour.

    Wow, just got a chance to look at the screen shots(I was watching some sbemail DVD) and it it sent my awexomeness meter through the roof and made me pass out for a couple minutes, but I kinda wish I coulda passed out until it was released, 'cause this waiting is killin' me now.

    Uh, question, seeing as the series is drawing to a close, will you do things similar to the Sam and Max dvd, case file and Soundtrack, I mean, I can see the practicality in a case file and dvd, but music has been rather minimal in this series in comparison to series like Bone or Sam and Max.

    Thanks to all who respond, (I know, im such a n00b)

    Maybe a SBCG4AP Blooper Reel, similar to that of Sam & Max, complete with the theme from Ted E. Bear's Mafia-Free Playland and Casino.

    It looks so awesome! The beefy arms, the world with video games, and Stinkoman Level 10! It all seems so awesome...

    It's still early in the month, don't panic, NOBODY PANIC!!!!!! Ok, I think there is still a chance to see it before the year is over, most likely on the 26th (that's two weeks from now, announcement next week, Christmas gift the following).

    The few screens I've seen look awesome (avoiding possible spoilers :P), can't wait to play it :D

    i totally hope, that episode 5 will be out soon...i spend the last weekend playing hbo to finally attain maximum awesomeness for episode 3 and then played through dangeresque again to be ready for the 8-bit thing...and now, i have to wait until at least next week. oh cruel fate..

    @lachlan_is: i think a sbcg4ap bonus disc ala sam & max is likely..at least for the pc. i am not sure if it was officially confirmed though. everything is possible, if we just beg nicely enough...

    I hope this episode ties the first 4 together in some way...I'm gonna play through all of the first 4 once this one gets a release date.

    That's a large assumption to make, and maybe a strange one. "They're making an episode about video games, so I bet that this episode won't have a video game in it!" Dunno if that reasoning really rings true...

    Hey guys, Christmas is coming early!

    Nintendo just confirmed that 8-Bit Is Enough will be in this Monday's WiiWare update. We'll release the PC version on the same day. That's December 15, less than a week from now. Good times. :D

    Wouldn't it be AWESOME to have a disc that works in the wii and pc, (i know its a little far off and it'd have to be like a multi 5 hybrid whatever) BUT IT'D BE AWESOME!!! and in the case file, or strong sads box of memories, it'd have something from each ep, Dangeresques glasses, a fully complete teen girl squad, A homsar artifact, A mini cd (similar to that of the friendly demon song cd) of the two duo!!!!

    Emily, Tabbaco, Jake, The Brothers Chaps!!! You've got to read this idea!!!!

    8-Bit is Enough + Sam & Max season 2 coming to Wii X Decemberween=

    WELL, MY HEAD ASPLODE!

    So now that Season 1 is finished, (or is it??? The screenshots echo Reality 2.0...) will there be a season 2 (say yes)?

    Hold your horses. I'm no Telltale person, but I know a few things about business. Season 1 would have had to have been profitable for Telltale to consider doing a second season.

    I don't doubt for a minute that the first season was profitable, but you have to consider it.
