![]() You’ll spend your game time walking (or running- more on that later) around Hill Valley throughout different eras and timelines as Marty McFly. What Telltale really does, for the most part, is take the tried and true graphic adventure mechanics from the hey-day of the genre and slap a modern coat of paint on it. The bottom line is that Back to the Future is an excellent example of a modern adventure title. And that, my friends, is that this is the same game that was released episodically. There’s a good side and a bad side to this collection, whether you buy at retail, or download the episodes – so we’ll start with the ‘good’. What we’re looking at here in this review is the new collected edition of the game that was just released on the PS3 (and PC). The game was originally released online only and, as a good chunk of Telltale’s games are, as a kind of ‘season’ broken up into episodes. If you haven’ played any of the formerly episodic… uh… episodes… yet, I’ll fill you in. BttF? Yeah, it carries on that tradition. Telltale brought the adventures of Doc and Marty into the modern age with a brand new fourth entry in the series that used the classic point and click style of adventure gaming.Īlways a favorite of mine, the classic graphic adventure is truly one of the finest methods of storytelling that the world of interactive gaming can produce. Until developer Telltale Games came along that is. You know, something like the Super Star Wars games or the Indiana Jones Trilogy cart that was released way back on the SNES… that kind of thing.īut, it was not to be and the franchise has pretty much languished in the pits of nothingness for years and years. Personally, I was always waiting for a BttF Trilogy title. No, on second thought, make that bad to non-existent. ![]() ![]() The first Indiana Jones video game was an adaptation of Raiders of the Lost Ark on the Atari 2600.The videogame history of the Back to the Future franchise has been… spotty. ![]()
