[OneDollar]

Anyone else come across this?

It seems Telltale Games (of the new Sam and Max series fame) have teamed up with internet flash animation giants www.homestarrunner.com and Videlectrix (the guys who've made a load of the homestar runner games, including a couple of text adventure games) to make an episodic series of point-n-click adventures starring Strong Bad. Available for the Wii and PC.

I'm excited

That's really cool.. I love Strong Bad.
Actually that reminds me, I never did get round to playing those Sam and Max games... hopefully they are available as one big download at a cheaper price...

Ya.

The game's actual page is http://telltalegames.com/strongbad, and apparently the first ep is set for release in June.

Should be awesome.

My God, that's awesome.
It makes getting a Wii worth it.
Maybe this summer...

Isn't Videlectrix just the Homestar guys with fake mustaches on?

I think that's what they use as a joke, but I think a mate of theirs actually makes the games. It's still not really a company, but not the normal two brothers.

WARNING: The above text may be innaccurate. I am not sure.

Yeh I don't think they actually established Videlectrix as a real company.  It's just a made up brand and an homage to the golden age of Atari gaming.
