Telltale's crossover game

http://www.gametrailers.com/video/exclusive-debut-untitled-telltale/703721

Penny Arcade + Sam And Max + Team Fortress 2 + Strong Bad crossover game from Telltale.

No, this is not April 1. This is apparently real.

Yeah... I need to go to bed now.

Yeah I saw this on Kotaku and I just...have no clue what the hell is going on. I don't see how any of these relate to each other. I'm excited, just confused.

Why are they each holding three cards?

Let's see - three of them are batshit insane, and the fourth deals with batshit insane people.

September 2 announcement?

Get what starts on September 3. (Hint: PAX)

Strong Bad? So H*R isn't dead?

i always forget about PAX.

This should theoretically overflow with awesomeness.

THEY BETTER DELIVER!! THEY BETTER DELIVER!!!!

My head hurts.

And I love it.

WAIT! So you notice that they're all holding cards? It's going to be a card game of some sort! Tell Tale's first game was a card game, after all.

And we all know Strong Bad's opinion on trading card games, so that would explain why he doesn't have any.

Telltale Texas Hold'em 2? If so, then I'm not too interested, despite being a fan of 3/4 of the cast shown in the trailer. But if it is so, then I hope Boris Krinkle/Leonard Steakcharmer shows up.

Naturally, I can't get to PAX this year either.

THE SUSPENSE!

PENNY ARCADE?!? I see the other three but how'd Penny Arcade get involved? I am most certainly intrested.

They look like they're holding cards, but Max has something in his other hand...

...what is it?

He's holding cards too (and a pistol in the other hand.)

Maybe it's a Video Game Celebrity Poker game.

Can't wait to buy this to get another TF 2 hat. srsly tho, assuming it's going to be a card game that's a great way to promote a game which would otherwise be completely uninteresting to a lot of people.

Their first Texas Hold 'Em game was all about interactions between the characters. If this is their second one, the interactions will be hilariously awesome.

I'm also hoping there are more characters from those four universes besides just those four. (Homestar? Bubs? Homsar?!? Pyro? Medic? Bosco? Twisp? Catsby? Please?!?!?!?)

Man if it was a Texas Holdem thing, Twisp would be hilarious. Imagine all the interjections!

Homsar, the Pyro, Twisp, and Catsby in a poker game.

Dada humor will never be the same again.

I would love to see specific interactions. That is, special, unique interaction between two characters. It's easy for characters to remain in character alone, making exclamations. I want actual reactions to each other.

Like, how would Strong Bad and Max interact? hehe

I'm betting there are more than just those four.

It probably won't happen, but I want Belkar Bitterleaf involved.

I'd be amused by Strong Bad talking with the Heavy.

Especially if the Heavy see's Strong Bad's boxing gloves hands and assumes he's a fan or something.

Either they're waiting for close to midnight or Telltale forgot PAX doesn't start until tomorrow.

Yep, it's a poker game, and it's pretty much exactly how we thought it was going to be.

Except it probably doesn't have any other characters. Oh, and we don't have any screenshots/video yet so we don't have many other details.

Even those four characters is enough for me. I think this should turn out fairly cool.
