Yo yo! The daily videos we did at Comic-Con this year went over well, so we're at it again for PAX 2011 this week! Alan and I will run around blathering at people and making dumb jokes.

    Somehow Richard reminds me of Wolverine (the Jackman-one)...

    I was thinking of the Liev Schreiber character from the Wolverine Movie, but yeah :)

    I'm not sure whether the videos will make it more or less painful that I won't be there. But next year, it's PAX or bust!

    "NOW THIS, IS A KNIFE"

    All I could think of.

    Where's that music from? Wallace and Gromit? I know it's not from Sam and Max, Telltale's usual source of video background music.

    Anyway, it's good to see there'll be more videos! I liked the Comic-Con ones (even if it was just a big painful reminder I couldn't be there myself :( ).

    Also, it's always really weird seeing how Alan actually looks like. With how he keeps order on the forums, I always end up imagining him as this powerful, Conan-like figure instead of a normal person. I can be pretty stupid sometimes.

    We don't mess around with the fake stuff.

    The video caught me in my pre-transformation stage. That's my mild-mannered alter ego.

    No, but seriously I'm a huge nerd.

    Can't wait to do these videos guys. Also can't promise they'll be amazing, but they'll exist.

    What types of things would you want to see in them anyway? Is there something you'd die to see at PAX? Our booth is a given, we'll pore over every inch of that thing, but on the show floor?

    Hmm, here's an idea. One of the Comic-Con videos had a mini-interview with Tycho about being involved with Poker Night at the Inventory. Maybe you could sneak over to the Valve booth and ask them the same thing.
    And also where Episode Three is.

    But yeah, as long as we see the booth, scenes of general nerdery, and some stupid jokes, I think I'll be happy.

    The music was from Wallace & Gromit! Jake reminded me how much good (and fully TTG licensed) music there was in that game.

    Cool to hear some W&G music in there. That game has a really good score and it kind of fell off the face of the earth.


    edit! oops hi Shaun!
  • edited August 2011
    All this talk about W&G is making me wanting to play those games again. Great music indeed!

    About what I would like to see in those videos: interviews with people you've collaborated with in the past are always fun. It would also be pretty cool if you could find Schafer or anyone else from Double Fine. I'd love to hear Schafer's opinion on Tales of Monkey Island, for instance (and convince him to let you guys make an episodic spin-off to Psyconauts while you've got the chance. Or at least get Raz in Murder at the Inventory).

    That, or make Shaun fight someone again.

    but on the show floor?

    I'm extremely curious to see if Konami will mention anything new on the Silent Hill: Downpour game.

    If it doesn't get you fired for advertising, could you guys grab a shot of that please? :D

    Awesome!.... you guys crack me up...

    Go look at the PAX 10! I am bummed to not be going this year, and hope to live the experience vicariously through my employer's blog.

    I wish I was going with all the cool kids. On top of the con being cool, OnLive is just passing out MicroConsoles, and I want one. :(

    Please for the love that is good, do a fistbump with yahtzee.

    I love these videos. It's always cool seeing the people behind video games hanging around, being themselves. How come more game companies don't do these?

    In fact, I'd probably watch a show about life in the Telltale offices. What will happen when Jake finds out Alan's the one who's been eating his lunch every day? :p

    Anyway, good video, looking forward to the rest. Also, where was that music from? Wallace and Gromit again?

    You guys had better have a booth at least this awesome when I'm there next year.

    Confirmed: Telltale is a front for the Seven Dwarves.
