Telltale Games announced that the game series based on Strong Bad, the self-proclaimed coolest person ever, will release for PlayStation 3 in North America December 21, and will be available on the PlayStation Network in Europe and Macintosh shortly thereafter.
Developed in partnership with HomeStarRunner.com creators Mike and Matt Chapman, Telltale’s Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People (SBCG4AP) delivers all of the comedy and irreverence of the web cartoons that its legions of fans have come to love. SBCG4AP is a story-driven 5 episode series with a comic spin that’s undeniably Strong Bad. The player uncovers each episode’s comedic plot through character interaction, dialogue-based puzzles, and the use (and abuse) of inventory items. The storylines run the gamut from political struggles to rock ‘n roll to the world of video games (of course). In addition, each episode is crammed with time-wasters to keep players poking around in the world, including Strong Bad emails to check, prank phone calls to place, and mini-games styled after the arcade games on the Homestarrunner.com website. SBCG4AP features the cast of characters and locations from the Homestarrunner.com cartoons, and the games are fully voice acted by Matt Ch apman and the rest of the original cast.
Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People is also currently available for PC and on Nintendo WiiWare.
