It's almost Thanksgiving here in the US, which means that the holiday season is right around the corner, and people are anticipating--eagerly or otherwise--spending many hours shopping for gifts for their loved (and liked) ones. To mark the beginning of the holiday season, we've put together a brand new gift store.
You might be aware that any of our downloadable games can be purchased as gifts for someone else. If you weren't, please re-read the preceding sentence. Apart from that, though, we've also put together a couple of new game/merchandise packages:
A Sam and Max Gift Bundle featuring both seasons of our Sam & Max games (that's 11 episodes) on extras-filled DVDs, topped off with a copy of Surfin' the Highway.
A Wii Game Gift Pack featuring the Wii versions of Sam & Max Season One and CSI: Hard Evidence. (Region alert: these are the North American versions and won't work in PAL Wii consoles.)
Bonus fact: We have also added the ability to gift-wrap the stuff you buy, (provided that it's not a downloadable episode). So, check out the new gift store, and enjoy the holidays!
Bonus bonus fact: We're also offering free USPS shipping for people who're buying a downloadable game along with physical merchandise! This offer's only good through Wednesday 12/3 though, so don't wait too long.
Yes! Strong Bad's long-awaited cinematic epic, Dangeresque 3, is finally here. If you preordered the episode, you can grab it from your Telltale account. If you're ready to buy, head over to the store to make it happen. And if you've been waiting for the demo, download away!
We're so excited about the new episode, we decided to offer a special deal in our online store. Now through Wednesday November 19, you can get FREE SHIPPING on any merchandise, as long as you also have a downloadable game in your cart. (The way we see it, why spend nine or ten bucks (or more) on shipping when you could get a game instead?!) So now's the time to stock up on that Telltale merch you've always wanted, and maybe get started on your holiday shopping...
Bonus wallpaper update: If you head over to the Dangeresque 3 promo site, we've got two new Dangeresque themed wallpapers available, including a high resolution version of the explosion artwork we've been tossing around the site the last few days, and an unexpected interpretation of the characters, 70s action movie style, by our concept artist Ryan Jones. Check them out at Dangeresque3.com.
Attention, frustrated completionists everywhere! We've gone ahead published the awesomeness guide for Baddest of the Bands today, detailing every last musical moment and expression of affection needed to make your "How much I rule: a chart" chart nice and green.
