Who’d have thought it that a game of golf would be a good cure for pre-marital strife!

It’s safe to say by now that if you’re reading a review of the final entry in a series of episodic adventure games, you’re either incredibly indecisive, a bit over-protective of your money (seriously, its $9) or just a completist. Anyway, Telltale’s Wallace & Gromit series draws to a

A day out at the fair, a case of dog-napping & a flying ice-cream machine? All in a days work for the plasticine duo!

Telltale Games are clearly at an impasse.

On one hand, they’ve mastered the episodic format, managing to bring persistently strong releases in quick succession where industry power houses like Valve Software haven’t quite managed it, using consumer feedback to guide the direction

Telltale have popped the demo for Episode 1 of Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Adventures on their site. Featuring a F.E.A.R.-esque amalgamation of scenes from the episode, it’s a good chance to acquaint yourselves with the Wensleydale Wonders ahead of the PC release on the 24th.

If the demo does tickle your fancy and you want to take a plunge on the whole lot for a discounted price, pop along to Telltale’s store and get the entire 4-episode season AND Sam & Max: Season 2 Episode 1 – Ice Station Santa AND (the brilliant) Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive … Read More...
