8-Bit is Enough, the fifth and final episode of Strong Bad's Cool Games for Attractive People is, on face, a fan service. This game reaches to bring in as many of the peripheral characters and extras from the Homestar Runner universe as can be reasonably included, and I'm happy to report that this is a success. The developers were able to include cameos from Homestar Runner past without it feeling forced, in fact they fit so seamlessly into the plot that a Homestar rookie could play this episode and enjoy the numerous allusions to the old 1980's videogame standbys without feeling like they were left out of the joke.
AMO has just reviewed all five episodes of Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People on Nintendo Wii:
"Telltale Game’s first attempt at making a game for a console (alongside a PC version), Strong Bad’s Cool Game For Attractive People did one of two things: if you were like me, you probably saw it and thought it looked bright and funny, maybe staring a wrestler with a Mexican accent and involving all kinds of shenanigans. For anyone who would spare a bit of time to check out Homestarrunner.com though, it was a dream come true. And so, while it may be a bit late, let’s take a look back at The Brother Chaps’ and Telltale Games’ joint game “for cool and attractive people – but you can play too!”"
From Gamertell:
"Telltale Inc. today (February 11, 2010) confirmed during the Macworld 2010 expo that it will, indeed, be releasing games for Mac.
Even better, the releases begin today (February 11, 2010) with Tales of Monkey Island."
Games can also vote on the next Telltale series style game to be release in March for Mac.
