Strong Bad game coming to the Mac soon-ish

It's only been recently that developer Telltale Games has offered its titles for the Mac platform. Today the company announced that it is going back and porting one of its older games, Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People, to Apple's machines (it's also coming to the PS3 on December 21).

Yes, Mac players will get the pleasure of encountering Strong Bad and other members of the wacky Homestar Runner web animated series in playable adventure game form with five episodes to try out. The game was first released for the PC and the Wii consoles over two years ago. There's no word yet on a specific release date nor pricing for the Mac port.

Review: Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Episode 2




All right, maggots, listen up! Do you has... er, have what it takes to join the Homestarmy and bring some orange slices for Homestar, and give him the five bucks if it comes to that? Strong Bad certainly hopes so. This month's installment of Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People, Strong Badia the Free, sees Strong Bad attempting to overthrow the King of Town after His Royal Roundness decrees an email tax. As anyone who follows the masked one's shenanigans already knows, this would pose quite a problem for Strong Bad, but makes for an excellent adventure title from Telltale Games.

The next episode of Strong Bad will be releasing soon, and Strong Bad is rallying the troops together... sort of. This should hold fans over for a little bit until Strongbadia the Free releases later this month.

Strong Bad: Episode 1 due for release on August 11


We've been waiting a little while for news on the release of Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People and today developer Telltale Games has announced that the first chapter of the multi-part adventure game will be made available for download on Monday, August 11. The first chapter's title is called Homestar Ruiner and is of course a play on word on Homestar Runner, the name of the web site that first launched the Strong Bad character.

Pre-orders for the game are being taken now on Telltale's web site for $8.95 or you can buy all five chapters for $34.95. The first chapter will see, " . . . Strong Bad's plans to beat the snot out of his rival Homestar Runner backfire, and he ends up with an unwanted houseguest cramping his style. Now he needs to get life back to normal, by any means possible." New chapters will run monthly through December.
