    Failtastic, during the cutscene when Marty takes the DeLorean to 1931, anyoneelse notice that the time circuit control switch was in the OFF posiiton.

    Just saying.

    Yeah, it was in the off position when Marty went to 1955. Also, anyone else ever comment on the fact that the time circuits seem to switch off after time travel? Both when Einstein arrives after the first test and in the game when the DeLorean arrives, the time circuits have to be turned on, even though they had to have just been on in order to time travel. :P

    And yes, there are probably a lot of copyrights that a small company like TellTale couldn't get: Nike, Adidas, Pepsi, J.C. Penney, whatever that other shop is in the mall, and whatever tires the DeLorean has. I think we should count ourselves lucky that the DeLorean has DMC on it. lol

    Oh, and it probably takes the time circuits a little longer to update because of the short. Doc'll have to fix that again. As for the steam...geez, I hate explaining this. It's the same reason the DeLorean didn't ice up as much after that first time travel. It has nothing to do with the in-movie canon and everything to do with special effects budgeting. That's it. If they could've had the vents fire every time, and iced up the DeLorean every time, they probably would have.

    My score wasn't serious. my official verdict is 8/10

    -1 choppy animation

    -1 for some return gags that didn't really fit.

    Overall the animation was good. But there were a couple moments where it felt stiff and rushed.

    As for the gags:

    Kid Tannen steps in manure when there were no horses around and crashes into a manure truck in the middle of a field (which still confuses me).

    Overall this game is one of the view movie-licensed games that really sticks to the original material and makes a good game out of it.

    I don't think it was cow manure that Kid stepped in. He probably stepped in Einie leavings. :P

    As for the manure truck in the field? Easy. Where do you think old man Jones gets it? ;)

    I give the game, as of RIGHT THIS MOMENT, a 8/10. To explain, that is mostly graphical. Choppy animation, not very smooth at all. However! That's based on my PC version that isn't very good. I expect it to be much better on my PS3 next year. I hate the cliffhanger only because it's gonna be two months before episode 2. :( However, it was a very BttF cliffhanger. And I felt bad for young Emmett, though I was glad to hear his dad ranting and mentioning the Von Brauns. :D

    DK, from what I gathered, Doc learned about the DeLorean at a later date, went back in order to pick it up as early as possible, as well as to prevent Griff from getting his hands on it.

    And I don't get why people don't like this explanation. It's well within the realm of possibility in a fictional time travel movie. Plus, the lightning bolt was referred to give the car a "gigawatt overload" so duplication isn't out of the question. And since the car was sent 70 years both backwards and forwards, there's a kind of symmetry there. Also, yes it would have had the damaged time circuits, but it was in the year 2025 now. Probably way easier and cheaper to repair the time circuits there than in 1885. ;)

    Don't read this if you don't like spoilers!

    SPOILER:
    So Marty started disappearing. Anyone wanna throw out a guess why?

    SPOILER:
    His grandfather testifies against Kid Tannen because of the subpoena, Kid Tannen kills him. Also, apparently there's going to be a part where he goes after Jennifer's grandfather as well since an officer Parker arrested Tannen.
    If I'm even close to right, I'll be laughing as hard as I was when I was right about the DeLorean.

    hummmm according to Dragon King's "spoiler", that means there is also a duplicated Marty.....right?

    Wrong DeLorean there Jay. It was the 1955 DeLorean that was hovering and got struck by lightning, so if the driver got duplicated, it would be a duplicate Doc. What's hilarious about this explanation is that over on the Telltale Forums, there was a HUGE ongoing debate about the DeLorean's origins, and I just happened to post "Well, maybe Doc found a way to create a temporal duplicate of some kind!" And that was the day before the game was released. So when that option came up, I was just astounded.
