Horrible OP for first thread ever. I'm so proud.

Telltale?
Llyod as VA?
An awesome Back to the Future Adventure Game?
Great Scott!
It's about time, McFly. A video game based on the Back to the Future movies is in the works.
Being developed by Telltale Games, the Back to the Future game series will include the likenesses of Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd, who portrayed the characters Marty McFly and Doc Brown in the films, which listed Steven Spielberg among the executive producers. (Lloyd will also provide his voice for the games.)
Bob Gale, who wrote the screenplays for the three films, is working with the game developers on the plot for the planned five "episodes". Telltale's recent releases include a series of Sam & Max games available for download on Xbox Live, the PlayStation Network and for computers at http://www.telltalegames.com.
As for the storyline, Telltale would confirm that the games would include an appearance of the DeLorean time machine and, the fictional California setting of Hill Valley. The time periods covered will include 1985 and additional characters from the movies will crop up in the game.

Also wonder if they'll make reference to how close we are to 2015 and how many Jaws sequels need to come out in the next few years.
That's going to be in the hoverboard minigame.:P
And if it's original, will it follow the cartoon (which took place after the movies)?
It's an original story and we don't know as of yet if it includes charachters from the cartoon.
Edit: Nope. They pretty much ignore the cartoon and focuse on movie established cannon.
I'm hoping that they also get Tom Wilson.

He seems like a cool guy.
The only non-BttF related thing I've seen him in was Freaks and Geeks, in which he played a gym teacher that thought Rocky II was the greatest film ever made because of how in shape Carl Weathers was.
Agreed. It makes me sad the game itself will almost certainly be in 3D instead of gorgeous hand-drawn 2D animation in that style.
I'm excited, even though I never get far in these telltale games. The 80s are ripe for parody.
Whatever you say, plebe.
Guess I know what that refers to now. :P
Wow, Maniac's a jerk in WCP.
Anyway, I guess they could just make a game as a straight retelling of the movies. BTTF3 is basically a large point and click game with needless contrivances like a broken car.

Well Marty, Doc always thought the time machine could use a hood ornament.

Like Mega Man Legends? Then check out my story, Legends of the Halcyon Era - An Adventure in the World of Mega Man Legends on TMMN and AO3!
Well, it's gonna be done in 3D with TellTale's engine but it's still the concept art. So, it will be similiar.

Well, not really. Look at the 2D artwork in Tales of Monkey Island - looks way more awesome than the 3d game engine.
I said similiar. Not what it is in the end. It's concept art.
Marty knows Doc Brown because he met him in 1985
...
Yes. I said "It would be awesome if a whole game was made with that 2d artwork." As in, if they made a game with 2D art. Not make it into 3d. Do you understand what that means?
Saying "It will be similar!" adds nothing and has nothing to do with what I said.
Please look at the bolded part then at my statement. See, where the problem is?
Also you don't really seem to grasp the idea of concept art. Anyway, yes 2D would be cool but it comes in the end down to personal taste.
I see the concept art. I like the concept art. I would like a game based around 2D concept art (that is actually 2D). You see, I know that 3d graphics made from concept art looks very different, because this is always the case. So saying "It will be similar to that concept art except in 3D!" as a response to my quoted post, is completely irrelevant.
Which reminds me, I still need to beat ep. 5 of tales of monkey island.
Also, a bit off topic, but still relevant:
Edit: Also, they're apparently going to do Jurassic Park as well. But that's not nearly as cool at BttF. Unless it was a cross-over.
Hmm...
