Telltale's First Back to the Future Ep Hits In December, Pre-Orders Live

Telltale talks pre-order offers and announces the platforms the series will be released on.

Telltale Games' Back to the Future episodic series will kick off this December, according to Joystiq. The studio has announced on its blog that the PC and Mac will see releases first, while the magical Cupertino tablet (!) and PSN are slated to play catch up.

In addition to revealing the games' platforms, Telltale has also revealed pre-order details. For the price of 25 bones, it looks like you'll get the entire series (we're checking on this), a complimentary copy of Telltale "Pilot" puzzle game Puzzle Agent, access to a special "insider" Back to the Future message board where you'll be able to interact with Telltale staff, and that feeling you get when you've contributed to a worthy cause. One dollar from each pre-order, according to the post, will go to Michael J. Fox's foundation for Parkinson's disease research. Here's a link to the official website if you're interested.

== TEASER ==It's tough to get excited about the game when we haven't seen it yet, but there is a choice bit of audio out there in cyberspace that might put you over the edge. Voice actor A.J. Locascio does an unreal Michael J. Fox impersonation. Dude even freaked out Doc. Check this out:  
 
  
        
 
I know I shouldn't feel this way at the moment, but... I really just want Jurassic Park information now. Tell me Malcolm is the star, Telltale. And please tell me dinosaurs and skirts will be mentioned in the same sentence at least twice. Tell me!

UPDATE 2: It appears as though you can now claim to have purchased the BTTF Blu-ray trilogy collection and enter in its non-unique code on the BTTF: the game website. Check out this post for more information.
