Telltale’s Back to the Future is off to a good start

The first details for Telltale’sBack to the Futureepisodic series are out, and even as someone who has to normally be forced into playing adventure games, I’m feeling this one.

Thanks to USA Today, we now know the following: Marty McFly and Doc Brown (voiced by Christopher Lloyd) are in it; Bob Gale, the screenwriter for the three films, is working with Telltale on the plot; there are five episodes planned; and the DeLorean, Hill Valley, and 1985 will be in the games.

Like I said, they’re off to a great start with these admittedly basic first details. One step at a time.
