Thought the guy was pounding in nails with his head, but then saw the wrench after the fact : \
Game looks interesting, but what platforms is it coming out for?
And the lack of smooth animations isn't a deal-breaker, but it's definitely annoying to me.

I guess the framerate is somewhat intentional, to make it look like Graham Annable's animations:

The framerate also bothers me. I'm wondering why they chose to go that route with the animation when the game's site says they have a classically trained animator on the team. But the story seems to be original and interesting so I'm willing to overlook the choppy animation, at least for now.

And TellTale has amazing animators. Play any of their other games and you can see.

I need something to play between episodes of The Devil's Playhouse. This should do nicely!

This is the best trailer TellTale has ever put together. My husband and I loved Blue Toad Murder Files, so this looks to be right up our alley.
That being said, I'm going to wait until it come out on PSN. After seeing how much better Sam & Max looks and sounds on the PS3, I'm not very interested in playing their games on other platforms. (Until other platforms match the aforementioned visual/aural quality, that is.)

i´m really sorry to see that frame rate, i know they tried to capture a style of animation with it, but that works for some animated series not for a video game, it´s sad but if they leave it likes this then I´m going to skip this one.....

@(Unverified) The frame rate is just fine. It's the style of the game. (face palm)

It's more Twin Peaks than Fargo, actually. I really enjoyed the demo at E3. Am looking forward to this one.

I absolutely love the art style. I don't think adding voices was such a good idea though. I'll totally get this... sometime soon.

Yeah, maybe I expected something more in this lines:

but I guess bringing Michael Rennie or Humprey Bogart to do voice over was a bit out of their powers.
