    All I ever read was "20th of August, PST" - no clue as to what time.

    Maybe the game isn't finished yet.
    Maybe it's strategy.
    Maybe it's sadism.

    I bet they're having a great time reading through these silly lines of ours, their finger hovering over the "release-EP2" - button. ;)


    It must be sadism, it can't be anything else. They could easily released the game midnight. HalfLife 2 was unlock/released about 9ish am norwegian time, so if Valve could do it, so can TellTale...

    Let's distract ourselves a little guys..anyone noticed that the avatar of EP2 has been changed from the Voodoo Lady's face to Elaine's? Why would they do that? Just wondering..

    Or milk a cow
    Or ride a train
    Or go bowling with your mom
    Or have a yelling contest with your neighbor’s dog
    Or learn to draw
    Or make a triangular table
    Or teach potato bugs to do tricks

    Well, it was the FIRST NEW MONKEY ISLAND experience in 9 years, so... no wonders. But now everybody knows that all other chapters will be mega-****ing-great, so they decided to get a life this day.

    The download section says: 20th August (PST)! ...So 9 o' clock in the morning Pacific Summer Time would mean about 1800 or 6pm CEST, Central European Time. So somewhere in the evening for us Europeans :)

    It's still night there right now. http://satellite.ehabich.info/naturalearth.htm

    Me too...and for some reason, gameplay footage from EP2 can already be found on YouTube. :eek:
    That'd be the review copies.

    One of my friends has had his review copy for a few days now, the lucky bugger :p

    (tempted to invade his house and pinch it really :D )

    Telltale used to release games at about 9am PST and actually tell us the day before. Come on Telltale, is this going to be a morning release or an evening release??

    We've got at least a 2 hour wait yet (going with 9 PST). I hope it is around then because if I don't get to play it today I'll have to wait until Tuesday. Eeek!

    It is now 9am Central Standard Time (Houston, TX, Chicago, IL, etc.) The last forum post says that it's 2:06 pm. That makes the forum on...Iceland time? Telltale keeps its website mainframe in Iceland? Random...
    So if the game is a "midnight" release, that means our gratification is 10 hours from now...7pm my time.
    Can anyone confirm these suspicions?

    I found something cool to do while we wait!!

    You need 3 things a dog, a monkey and a cowboy outfit!!

    and you get this: http://www.geekjive.com/blog/images/monkey_cowboy.jpg

    but beware!!! The dog has to be bigger than the monkey or this will happen:

    I think you're probably right. I have the IIRC channel saved this time so it's all good.

    Bet TT will arrive in the office & rub their hands together when they see the amount of traffic. lol

    I guess they are used to it.

    And i believe they have had devised their business plans a couple of weeks ago...and as far as business plans go - they will still be dissatisfied (that's what any business is about lol

    Um... Why isn't it showing up in my Games tab? "Not yet released" - how come when it clearly is?
