It's worth mentioning that Puzzle Agent has been confirmed to unlock after 5000 people buy the Bundle.

@RingmasterJ5 It's also worth mentioning that MANY MANY people have had serious issues getting the adventure bundle to work.
And I installed it to d:\Games, thinking it would create it's own folder. It didn't. And when I uninstalled it, it delete EVERYTHING in that folder. All my games are GONE.
Be wary.

I hope I'm far, far, far from the only person that sent this one in. It's a great deal, it supports several wonderful causes, and there is no reason for anyone not to be spreading this all over the place.

@darkinchworm Well, I did too. I'm currently on a campaign to get this bought as much as possible. I started it here: http://www.telltalegames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19231
Telltale really had a good idea about the extra two game unlocks, an extra incentive to get the word out. Now, a shameless plug:
If you think about it, this is really 17 games, if you count each Sam and Max episode ane each King's Quest game separately.

@Powerlord Well, it's far-fetched, but the King's Quest Collecton does include both versions of King's Quest 1.

@harusame This bundle is completly woth the $20. It's a $115 value. Try to spread the word as much as you can, because the extra two games need more purchases to unlock, and it's off to a slow start.

And $30 at Best Buy. Just happened to notice today.

@darkinchworm Personally, I'm most interested in the Kig's Quest Collection, which is already $20 itself. How could this NOT be a good deal?

@RingmasterJ5 *King's
Also, if my rampant commenting seems obsessive, it's just because I'm trying to make this bundle look as good as possible to other people looking at the comments.

King's Quest Collection should be paying YOU to play it. Not that they're bad games, but they're sloppy "ports". As in, not ported at all.

Hey, I sent this in, too. Not because I thought I'd be the first, but because WE'RE LOSING DAYLIGHT, PEOPLE! I WANT PUZZLE AGENT AND SAM AND MAX SEASON 2!

@Icupnimpn2 I've already bought them, but I still want to see them unlock.

@2late2die I already have both Puzzle Agent and S&MS2, and I still bought it for the other awesome games in the package. Spread the word(so you can get closer to snagging a free copy of Puzzle Agent)!

Is Sam and Max representative of this genre? I ask because I've heard so many good things, but I gave that game a shot and felt so, so bored. I've enjoyed Puzzle Agent on my iPhone, though.

@benexclaimed Kind of. Which episode did you play? The second season(included here) is much better than the first. Spread the word!

@harusame While I must admit Season One had a better puzzles, I liked Season Two's story MUCH better.

@barkie Yep, the "King's Quest Collection" is a standout for me too. Spread the word!

OK, I just jumped on this, and am going to spread the word, so I hope you guys will forgive me for asking what will undoubtedly be the dumbest question in this thread- am I going to be getting any of these as boxes with discs, or is it straight up downloads? Even after buying, I'm not sure. I got a link for download, but since they needed my shipping address, too....
I've never ordered anything from Telltale's site, and I rarely game on my PC, hence my unbridled dumbness about how this works. Thanks in advance.

@CAG Danimal You almost certainly won't be getting any physical media shipped to you.

@benexclaimed You are almost right. If the Sam and Max game unlocks, we all get the disc version of that one game. Not the others, though. Spread the word!

this bundle has been full of problems from telltalegames. i have gotten so many errors so far just trying to install the whispered world that i haven't even tried the other games!
just an fyi to my joystiqers, the bundle comes with this weird ttg drm. it's a ttg installer and it is really annoying. it downloads the games for you and tries to install them but it sucks.
and i think ringmasterj5 is on the ttg street team. lay off, buddy.

@rapidix I'm not on the "street team" whatever that means. But, I'm the "leader" of a fan campaign to get this more sales. I started it here:
http://www.telltalegames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19231
Also, Telltale has fixed the TWW video problems. Redownload the launcher and it should work now. If you have more problems, post in the support forum. I don't think the launcher could be called "DRM", though. As I'm obligated to say, "Spread the word!".

@RingmasterJ5: hey i actually posted on that forum thread of yours regarding my issues. i have emailed ttg as well with my issues. i am redownloading everything right now. we'll see if my frustration will continue.
and you are on the fan web team. street team is usually for bands but they're the people who make fliers and post them up and hand out swag because they love the band, event, product so much.
i wouldn't mind spreading the word if this wasn't troubled to death. now i am on the opposite spread the word team of "wait until they fix they shit."

@rapidix Well, what was your TWW problem? It might have already been fixed in the Support forum.

@RingmasterJ5: well i have now downloaded the whispered world for a fourth time. at 2 gigs a pop, this is awfully fun. the game FINALLY installed but now the videos don't work. ttg claimed this was fixed and to redownload everything and that's what i did. the download is now in two packages. from the support forum, folks have said to run the second download by itself. i'm trying that and it's not doing anything.
again, this is just ridiculous and a poor product.

@rapidix Did you uninstall and redownload the main launcher?
Reply
Posted: Sep 6th 2010 5:58PM rapidix said
@RingmasterJ5: yes. i did. and i'm not doing it a third time. i asked for a refund through the support email. from browsing the forum, every game has issues. the installer, wrapper, drm thing is a horrible program and this was really not worth the money.
don't buy it folks. save yourself the headache.
