If you've been a fan of almost anything Telltale Games has ever done (and really you should be) then the teaser trailer above is going to get you pretty darn randy in your nether reasons. The teaser is short and sweet, but should get many an adventure fanboy pretty excited for what Telltale is cooking up, especially when it says "Bet you never thought these guys would ever get together."
But who are "these guys?" Let's do some deduction from the silhouettes we have. I think Max from Sam & Max is blatantly obvious and if that isn'tStrong Bad on the far right then I'll eat my own shoe. I'm also pretty sure that the fellow on the left is Tycho from Penny Arcade. All of these characters have, of course, been the subject of a Telltale adventure game, but what about the big fella? Doesn't he look like a heavy from Team Fortress 2? It does make sense as Valve and Telltale have been working and playing together for a while now.
Updated: As DinnertimeNinja pointed out, Tycho wasn't in a Telltale game as On the Rain-Slick Precipices of Darkness was made by Hothead. Sorry about the mix up.
When was Tycho the subject of a Telltale adventure game?
Hothead Games did Penny Arcade: otRPoD.
Anyway, this sounds crazy, though I think Tycho is the odd man out here. Not because he isn't hilarious, but because he's never had a VOICE, and all of these characters have famously recognizable voices.
I feel like this may be a collection a la Team Fortress 2. Maybe to give the TF 2 updates to consoles and re-release Precipice of Darkness, the Sam and Max games, and Strong Bad games on new platforms?
I hope this is a crossover and not just some new release on Steam. As awesome as it would be to get Strongbad on a new platform, I would much rather see a crossover with these dudes as the main characters.
I've been reading it's a poker game. Not sure that's merely a rumor or truth, but that would be SO disappointing. This could be so awesome if it was actually something I care about.
wait, will thet throw rascal in there too. the game had a cool concept but it was very hard to control and attack. id love to see a return for him that does him justice.
Tycho is holding a game console. Max is holding a gun in his left hand, and nothing in his right. The heavy is holding a sandwich, and I think that Strongbad is just making a fist.
Eventually, the Humble Bundle team is going to run out of games to feature. Eventually, I will stop giving it all of my money. Today is not that day, especially since this bundle brings more games to my beloved Android platf...

C.A.M.P.'s Rain managed to stand out among the other flashy, next-gen showings Sony had prepared for media at E3 yesterday. Its dark, moody look caught my eye, even with it sitting next to the best looking PS4 titles. And with headphones on and controller in hand, I was instantly drawn in, immersed, wandering in the rain.
