The above is the brand new trailer for the upcoming game based on the webcomic that spawned the event I'm currently at. That last sentence should illustrate just how huge Gabe and Tycho have become, as last I checked only three people attended NexCon 2007 (two of whom were homeless and the third was actually a dog).

One might think that with all the different jars the boys have their hands in certain things might be neglected, but they seem to impart their own unique stamp on every project they're dragged into and in the subgenre of non-game-IP-based-games hopefully that's enough to keep it from sucking horribly.

NexCon suffered bad promotion, don't feel too bad about it, mang.

It's looking...better? This is a surprisingly less informative trailer than the last one. By the time the game is done, there won't be a game!

Gabe & Tycho in a Lovecraftian/Steampunk setting with giant Fruit Fuckers? I don't give a shit how the game looks, do want.

As optimistic as I am about playing this, both trailers have been dumb.

I'd probably like the trailer more if I knew what was going on.

Between the PA guys and Ron Gilbert (the creator of Monkey Island) this game is guaranteed to be hilarious.

I can't stop laughing at that intro XD Such a great spoof on the "In a world.." dialogue.

If nothing else, the game has awesome cutscenes. You create a custom character 3d character which is also used in the 2-d cutscenes, obviously through some manner of arcane chicanery (or Flash).

And that's all they really showed off at PAX.

Sooo going to get this game. Graphics might not be the best, but the dialog and story are bound to be fantastic.
