Telltale and Xbox 360

edited August 2010 in General Chat
Hi Telltale,

I am a massive fan of your games, so much so that I have bought the first two seasons of Sam and Max twice. Once on the PC and once on the 360.

My question to you is why is there such a lack of support for the 360 recently?

No Tales of Monkey Island. No Strong Bad. Not even the new season of Sam and Max.

It's extremely disappointing as I would love to get all these games on the 360, is there really no plans to release them? Also, does it mean no more new Telltale games are 360 bound?

A disappointed fan,

Rick

    actualy xbox has had the most support from telltale with sam and max seasons 1-2 on it wallace and gromit as well. THats 3 seasons while the wii only has tales, sbcg4ap and eventualy the puzzle agent port. 2 seasons and 1 episode.
    Playstation has the devils playhous and tales.

    So with that in mind. telltale has given more work on the xbox than the others with wiiware second and playstation last.

    Someone could probably correct me on this with the csi games but oh well.
    EDIT: ok i was pointed out that seasons 1 and 2 are also on the wii(how could i have forgot) so in reality the wii does get more games. Unless i take csi in consideration. hmmmmm.

    I think you meant Wii there. Sam & Max season 1 and 2 are also on the Wii, albeit available only in retail rather than Wiiware, but still.

    I think you have to take into account that Telltale doesn't have all that time to just add a game to another console at times. For example, they shouldn't release the newest season on Xbox until it's done, or it should've been released at the start of the season. There's no point putting up the game now with only the finale left.

    Besides, all games on Xbox for TTG were put on it after the season was finished on PC.

    I agree support has been good, but recently it seems to have dropped off. Tales of Monkey Island being the biggest disappointment not coming to 360 so far.

    I do agree though Sam & Max Season 3 should only come out when completed, but is this planned at all?

    Have no idea if it's planned at all. Just let things take its course then see what happens in the end.

    I guess they first want to have it thoroughly tested before submitting it? Seeing as patching a game on XBox Live isn't that easy to do, I imagine they first want to at least make it as bugfree as possible.
