Ripe with anticipation

edited August 2009 in General Chat
I've heard a lot about these "small" games Telltale will be putting out. I'm wondering how these will be distributed and/or sold. Any feedback would be greatly appretiated.

    There's a clue to their current distribution mindset in this interview on Gamespot ;

    GS: When do you expect to announce a publishing partner?

    DC: We may not. The proliferation of broadband has opened a direct channel to fans of these types of games. We started Telltale to push the market forward and quickly take advantage of advances in technology. There are many behemoths in the industry going about things in a very formulaic way; Telltale isn't down with that. If we do choose to work with a publisher, it will be because we have a shared vision.

    I think online would be the best way, as long as you could print out a manual, if you so desired....;)

    I notice that the only games I've seen TellTale make are point-and-clicks. And pretty much all you do is point and click, and there's not much technology there. (Unless if they change their traits & concepts)

    I hate to be that guy, but this thread is sort of from 2004.
