It's not April 1st.
It seems Satan will be ice skating to work.

Bad news, everybody.

Look at what's in their hands.

I think it's gonna be the sequel to a poker game Telltale once had.

DEAR GOD PLEASE NO!
I don't want a poker game.
I hate poker.

It's most likely it.

I mean, it wouldn't make much sense to make a straight adventure game with those characters, and they're all holding cards in the teaser.

...plus it's a way to make easy money off the fans.

I'm still praying to my imaginary Gods, that it's not true.

While it certainly does look like they're holding cards, I think it might be more action-adventure. The Poker Game was really only to test their in-house game engine. All other games they have made have been action-adventure.

Well, at least it's only 5 dollars. Also, 25% discount for whatever your next order is sure beats most pre-order bonuses.

It's single player. The games about playing poker/hanging out with all of those characters with their personalities intact. There's more dialog in this game than in a Sam & Max episode, both for poker playing and for the ambient conversations that spring up and roll around the table as the game goes on.

I'm gonna have to get it then. I like poker, and the idea of insane dialogue while playing a cool game of cards appeals to me.

I want to punch this game in the dick. They're taking an overdone card game and using popular characters as a selling point. It's been done before but it makes me mad every time.

They coulda done it, but they shouldn't have made that teaser image. It got far too many people excited.

The second I saw it, I knew it could only be something completely stupid.

A bunch of people are gonna buy this just for the TF2 weapons, and everyone's gonna go stupid over them like the Sam and Max items for trading. This is gonna be a nightmare for anyone who isn't a huge trade buff.

The game itself, eh.

Also insert obligatory complaint about Heavy sounding different even though his original voice clips were recorded years ago here.
