I know some people might disagree with me but what about a Family Guy game. In each episode you control Brian & Stewie to solve different puzzles. I don't know what the story would be though. We have had 2 Family Guy games. One everyone hates (But i like) and the new One which i have not played yet but some people are saying its bad. Now if there's anyone that can make a good Family Guy its Telltale Games.
Both Family Guy and Bevis & Butthead would make great adventure games if done right and TellTale could and would.
I still would love to see them do a game based on the old Incredible Hulk TV show and continue that story on as well as one based on the old Fox then USA show Werewolf.
But as far as other cartoons, I would love to see them tackle Ren & Stimpy, Mighty Mouse or Darkwing Duck.

The new one is better than the first one, but only because it's actually functional. I don't know why you like the first one, but enforced stealth sections that barely work do not a good game make.
I can't quite see Telltale doing a Family Guy game somehow. Maybe Straandlooper...
I'd like a game that takes place in the world of the Shannara series.
It would be awesome if Telltale could make a sequel to Loom too, but I can't imagine what it would be like. Sadly, despite being a LucasArt game, it isn't really well known so I doubt it would be financially interesting for Telltale...
Perhaps a Stargate type adventure in the same way TWD was built, where choices really make a difference (without the predetermined person will die-esque consequences whatever you choose).
There hasn't been a decent Stargate game yet, infact if i'm not mistaken there has been none cause they have all been canned, maybe except 1 of them.
Obviously Gekko if they still have the rights to Stargate will be a bit hesitant because of the past attempts. But I think an episodic Stargate could be good, and could lead to other future episodic releases.
Obviously also to keep costs down, you could be playing as a new member of SG-2 so no need for the previous stars to do any voice work.
A Series of Unfortunate Events. The books are already very episodic, with a new location and a few new quirky 'NPCs' in each one, fitting a multi-episode season. Violet's method of inventing (find a few objects in the area and combine them) is a perfect fit for an adventure/puzzle game. The visuals have the potential to be very stylish and distinctive without needing to be too graphics-intensive. And it's a well-known and reasonably popular property that nobody else is doing anything with, a perfect target for Telltale to snap up.
At first I wasn't too sure about The Walking Dead by TellTale Games, but once episode 1 was free, I bought the rest afterwards because it's so damn addicting and such a masterpiece TTG has created.
So, anyway, I was wondering if TellTale Games will ever produce a game based on the TV Series of Dexter?
I've been with Telltale since I picked up TOMI late and then BTTF, PA, and WD. I have been thinking about the next game Telltale could make to use the engine from the Walking Dead game. I honestly think a game set in the universe of Jeff Lemire's Sweet Tooth would be amazing. The engine might need some modifying since the Sweet Tooth comic book obviously has a very distinct style from the Walking Dead comic but I think Telltale could make it work.
For those who don't know what Sweet Tooth is, it is an amazing creator owned, Vertigo published monthly comic series post-apocolypse. All children born after the apocolypse have animal qualities, with some being more animal than human. You know these children are innocent but it still gives you a feeling of creepiness almost to look at some of them which in turn makes you feel guilty. It really is an amazing series, but unfortunately, the final issue, #40, is coming out early 2013 (jan, i think). It's one of my favourite creator owned books coming out right now (right next to Kirkman's other stuff, Saga, and a few others that are also great). The story features prominent themes of religion, trust, love and innocence.
I think Telltale could totally choose whether to just copy paste the story almost directly, create a sequel to the series (unlikely since I don't think Lemire would go for that, and it wouldn't make much money either) or create a game set in the universe of Sweet Tooth (probably would be the best option; provides Telltale with a blank slate with simple rules like the WD game, only difference is that in Sweet Tooth they actually know the cause, and it is a major focus, but I think Telltale could completely ignore the cause and just do a story in that world).
I have no clue if Jeff Lemire would go for this (I've read his blog but I don't know if this would be something he would like) but I would love to be able to explore the world of Gus and Jeppard. If anyone has read the series and would like to talk about it or has any ideas for the game (I'd say limit the Sweet Tooth spoilers to the first 3 issues), I'd love to read about it below.
Maybe after Spielberg and Jackson do The Adventures of Tintin 2: Prisoners of the Sun/ The Seven Crystal Balls/ The Black Island/ The Calculus Affair. But yeah, a Telltale Tintin game would be awesome.
And Robert Kirkman’s Thief of Thieves would be pretty good. As would Stephen King’s The Stand (comic book would be good).
Screw it, I’m just gonna do a list.
The Thing
Thief of Theives
The Stand
King Kong
Indiana Jones
The Mummy
I for one, would love for TellTale to do a True Blood game that is based on the books, not the tv series, because the books are much better. I am up to date on the books and i am waiting for the final one in may, but it would be awesome if Telltale does a true blood game based on the books.
Another game TellTale Games could do is a Breaking Bad game based on the tv show when the series is over. I would love to play as Walt and just go through his life and the tv series.
I would love to see Telltale games try and make a episodic game based on the TV series 'Chuck'. Ever since the series ended, I've been longing for more Chuck, and I think Telltale could make a good "season 6".
The game should have the nerd/spy Chuck as a playable character (of course), and with the help from his friends he takes on villains/terrorists and their schemes. The game should also include fan-favourites such as Sarah, Casey, Morgan, Ellie and Devon, Jeffster and Big Mike. Would be nice to even see some old faces such as Beckman, Anna, Stephen, Carina, Cole, Jill and Shaw.
It could also be Telltale's first chance to make an action-advenure game. Chuck has the Intersect, and can sometimes get different abilities such as suddenly knowing kung-fu, several languages and important information about people and things. The game could include things Telltale has worked with before, such as puzzles and good, deep stories. But Telltale could also approach combat and stealth with this.
I love that this conversation is still going. With the recent release of the next story, Cold Days there is plenty of story to build around this group of characters. Especially the plot points of this particular story(not going to list if people haven't finished), show that there is still so much to come and each book could work as one whole episode of the game.
Plus with the addition of "Side Jobs" and the comics. You get so many more small stories that could come in as a bonus episode or as part of one episode.
I really think TTG should contact Jim Butcher and talk about developing this.
Ah well, give it some time, see if any other forum members have anything to say. It may fall back in to obscurity anyways.
And yes, you should read them. They're pretty awesome.
Back on topic; If a game was to be made, here are several key questions that would need to be addressed.
1. Where in the Dresden Files timeline would you like to see a story set?
2. Would we be playing as Dresden, or some extended universe character?
3. Would the Telltale Games episodic content formula work for the game?
4. Would the game be better in another game genre (ie RPG, action adventure etc)?
5. Under the assumption that Telltale made the game, would you buy this bad-boy?
Answers to each Question....
1. Obviously you'd want to start at the beginning, as in the first book. But if Jim Butcher gave permission then they could tell the story of Harry starting when he was younger and just learning his magic abilities.
2. Honestly you would want to play as Harry. He is the center of the story so you'd want to be playing him.
3. In my previous post I mentioned doing each book as a episode or you could do multiple episodes per book, which would mean you could spread the book series out over many episodes allowing for content to flourish This would be very attractive for fans of the series.
4. In truth, Fans of the series would be more likely to enjoy exploring the world of the Dresden files. So using Tell Tale's style of story telling (Sam and Max, Walking Dead, etc) would be just what fans would be looking for. The more detail they go into, the more fans will want to play. This would also introduce gamers to The Dresden Files book series which would benefit both Tell Tale and Author Jim Butcher. Thought there is a paper RPG available for The Dresden Files right now, so that is also a possibility.
5. I would definitively buy and play the game. I already enjoy Sam & Max as well as Walking Dead. I'm an even bigger fan of The Dresden Files and if I could explore the world of Harry Dresden on a visual level like those games, It would be like getting to not only read the books again but live them!
I was asking you not to bump what is effectively a dead topic (while also correcting you on the point that the "conversation was still going"). That's all.
Spaceballs: A game based on a Sci-Fi movie. Sure the cartoon series bombed, but Telltale could do way better here.
Men In Tights: Okay, this one's a bit tricky, mostly since the story of Robin Hood is pretty much a complete story, and everything already has been done in that movie.
Blazing Saddles: There hasn't been a lot of adventure games set in the Wild West, so this one could definitely work. Also I haven't seen it yet.
History of the World: Part 2: Okay, I know that part of the joke here was that there was only one History of the World, but wouldn't it be hilarious if there actually was a part 2? No? Never mind then.

I would support every last one of these although Spaceballs, my favorite movie ever, would get my first vote! And I thought I was the only one who enjoyed History of the World Part 1.
How many of you guys agree or think Telltale should make a game continuing one of ABC's best series, LOST?! It should continue with Hurley, Ben Linus & Walt in the island and all those who survived and maybe even some new faces!! What will your storyline or idea be if Telltale games ever decide to make ABC's Lost the game? They pulled it off with Back to The Future... I'm pretty sure they could pull it off with LOST! What do you think?? KATE, WE GOTTA GO BACK!!!
Btw... The smoke monster can come back... Remember the island has the power to time travel ;-) so anything can happen!!!
i would have to rewatch the first 3 seasons and actually watch the others to even know what was going on if they were to remain faithful to the source material
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalt! My son!

I dunno man. I don't really know how you do more with Lost. The mysteries of the island are either solved, unsolved-but-unimportant, or kinda explained how they work at least if not flat out explained why. It's hard to imagine that there's MORE on the island that will be mysterious and cool, especially stuff that Ben won't already know about.

Yeah I agree. It's been too long.
Now a Fringe adventure...

ohhhh, fringe is so full of possibilities, what if we were to play as an observer trying to control a butterfly effect type story with time travel, that would be a cool adventure game
I like the idea of Fringe! Lost never was a full fan and the last game based on it was so-so at best. A few other cool TV shows I think would make great TellTale Games are
Castle
The Incredible Hulk
Ren and Stimpy
Werewolf
Tales From The Crypt
Hercules: The Legendary Journeys
Mystery Science Theater 3000
Dexter
True Blood
Beavis and Butt-Head
Commander USA's Groovie Movies

Bleugh, I hope not. Straandlooper are better than thon.
MOAR CSI!
But on a serious note,
Perhaps a Stargate type adventure in the same way TWD was built, where choices really make a difference (without the predetermined person will die-esque consequences whatever you choose).
