You are incorrect. Tycho has appeared as a prominent character in at least two games prior to this. And it's not so much a Poker game as it is "Listen to them talk and get more pointless TF2 crap".
:
-Strong Bad from the Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Wiiware games
Of course. That's exactly what Strong Bad is from. You are so on the ball here.

:
And a deliberate Straight man character named Tycho from pretty much the most successful and generally well-liked webcomic ever.
Fixed that for you. Kids these days.

I think Telltale did a shitty job programming it and at least 70% of the people who bought it did so just for some pointless TF2 unlocks. Additionally, the in-game conversation doesn't really flow well and there are graphical glitches and other shitnanigans abound.

Lucky for me I am OWF's charity case and had it lovingly donated to me by Meech.

Just out of interest, did it not occur to you to check before telling other people about the game?

So, putting aside the characters from previous games, it's a poker game?

I'll give a review now without playing (or needing to play) the game; it's a fucking poker game, it'll play like the rest.

Nope. Real Poker games are actually rather in depth. This one has extremely poor poker mechanics and the AI is laughable.

They actually updated it and fixed some things earlier, so I don't know if anything has changed, but it's still a waste; go play Super Meat Boy or something that's actually good.

Pretty tacky game if you ask me. I don't expect much more from a 2 dollar game though, so it's ok I suppose.
