    Also worth noting, the video that they removed, one that you can no longer access any from their site (you would have to go to youtube) is the one that shows April 2011 at the end.

    I noticed that, but until they provide us with hard evidence, it's just speculation.

    It will be out. Telltale has to advertise their other games as well. It's not all about Back to the Future and Jurassic Park. I know it doesn't explain why they took down the videos, but still. Just keep calm for now.

    how? there is no release date for jurassic park the game.

    true.

    It'll be out when it's ready. As for what day, well we'll probably never know until it finally premires. Just keep calm until we get some hard evidence to support a delay or a release

    true.

    Exactly. So let's just cool our jets and stay level headed for right now.

    Just so I can make sure I'm adding this up right:

    JP got its formal announcement with trailer in Febuary, followed by one video.

    Hector got announced yesterday and they have 3 videos up

    *shrug* Telltale works in mysterious ways I guess. It doesn't make sense that other games haven't gotten as much exposure, but look at the first trailers for the films. They showed almost nothing about it except for the logo. Everything was speculation up until the premire. Maybe Telltale's following that path too

    I agree that it doesn't seem to make sense, but doesn't it make even less sense to take all the stuff down and delay it without telling anyone? Just cool it for now. I'm sure we're gonna have some news shortly.

    No, not really. If they wait tell the 29th to tell us, that would be one whole less week of fallout from pissed off fans and by taking down the advertising less people will pre-order from now and then(hence less angry e-mails). But yeah, Lets wait and see, cause telltale has a great track record of keeping it's fans informed.(<--hard to convey sarcasm on internet)

    Waiting til the 29th to tell us would just be bad business. However I feel like they would get the message across as clear as possible (i.e. someone like Alan stopping by and posting 'Hey guys, Jurassic Park has unfortunately been delayed. We will update you with more info as we recieve it') rather than shrouding it in mystery and confusion. I'm sure we'll have some information soon enough.

    Idk man, they've been sitting by watching the JP forum eat itself a live with anticipation without a word, what makes you think they'll pop in clarification now.

    Right, we've waited this long for a great JP game, whats another few months. I'll be just as excited, if not more!

    Exactly. Besides, it's not like the game's gonna be delayed for over a decade, like a certain other game that I'm sick of hearing about.

    they even abandoned the insider forum, we haven't had a legitimate answer to anything in the "ask the telltale team thread". I know mark darwin popped in about a week ago but that was only to correct someone who posted a B.S. release date.

    Well, the most recent bit of news we have is that Barbasol thing they posted on Twitter. To me, it seems like they wouldn't have posted it if the release wasn't soon

    The very same. I know the game's been delayed for years, but I'm really sick of people complaining about it. It's better to assume the damned thing's never gonna come out rather than set your heart on a release only to be disappointed endlessly.

    See what I mean two weeks of no new information and all we got was some vague twitter post that really doesn't tell us anything.

    Isn't that what a teaser is supposed to be though? It's not supposed to tell us everything. Just a hint. I dunno. I think we'll know information by Monday.

    Seriously, I hope your right, but right now the signs seem to be pointing elsewhere.

    Things aren't always what they seem. All I'm saying is that we should just keep calm and levelheaded until we get some hard evidence supporting either cause.

    It'll be here. IGN usually sticks to their site related gimmick's. Maybe we'll get information when that kicks off

    So do I. I want the game out as much as the next fan, but I'd rather have a polished copy rather than a bug filled episode

    They been taking too much time, for both BTTF and JP... An April release date should either mean beginning or middle, never the end.

    Telltale typically doesn't release their games on weekends, so it's rather unlikely that it will be. It would be a pleasant surprise, however I doubt it's the likely case. I'm betting my money on the 28th, at the end of Dinosaur Week. It makes more sense as a climactic ending with the rest of Dinosaur week serving as buildup for it.

    I know, but this is a new type of game for Telltale as well, and in the last video, there were some rather noticable bugs that needed fixing.

    New theory:

    They took the main image/video and small images and banners to make way for new JP Game graphics when the game launches. I don't know about Telltale, but I know the company I work for, we have to weird timing for our web updates. I don't personally do web graphics so I can't say specifically how it works, but I know for simple updates they can do them overnight, but for more involved updates that need actual new coding, these need to be submitted weeks in advance before they are "active" on the site.

    Maybe they just had to take the "old" JP media links before the "new" web content was ready? After all, there still isn't really a Jurassic Park The Game website, and I'm sure that would be something Universal would want.

    With dinosaur week looking JP themed, and the game needing to come out next week to meet the April due date, maybe this stuff getting taken down is just part of larger web initiative for a bigger JP game site.

    Lets hope!

    That makes a lot of sense. It could be what they're doing for all we know. It seems more likely than a delay. Let's hope for the best!

    As far as we know, they might not even know the release date. Maybe they're still working the bugs out or something

    I'm starting to get scared. What if they are editing the videos and stuff to make it say May? o.o
