Wallace & Gromit Details, Movie

Telltale follows last week's Wallace & Gromit  announcement
(story) with further details on the project and a new trailer on
the Telltale Games
Website. Here's word: SAN RAFAEL, CA, July 28, 2008 – Following up on
last week's announcement of Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures, Telltale, Inc.,
the leader in interactive episodic entertainment, has released a cinematic
teaser trailer and new details about the project. The upcoming game series based
on Aardman Animations' Wallace & Gromit franchise is joining Telltale's all-star
lineup, which includes the award-winning Sam & Max series and Strong Bad's Cool
Game for Attractive People, debuting soon on WiiWare and PC.

Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures will combine the rich and imaginative
storytelling the quirky inventor and his faithful canine sidekick are known for
with the critically-acclaimed writing, fun gameplay, and unique TV-style format
Telltale has pioneered. Assuming the roles of both Wallace and Gromit, players
will spend each episode exploring a vivid world, assembling intricate
contraptions, and getting the duo out of the sticky situations they frequently
find themselves in. The new trailer, artwork, and additional information about
the series can be found at

"Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures extends our vision for delivering new kinds
of entertainment to everyone who enjoys a good story," says Telltale's CEO and
co-founder Dan Connors. "Wallace & Gromit has a long history of entertaining
people of all ages, and the world Aardman has created is rich with humor and
storytelling possibilities. Our team has been enjoying the process of adapting
this series for new audiences, and we look forward to reintroducing it to
long-time fans in the episodic format that Telltale has been innovating."

Sean Clarke, Head of Marketing & Licensing at Aardman, adds: "Wallace and Gromit
are much-loved characters with cross generational appeal who will work perfectly
in this kind of game-playing environment. Telltale is a leading producer of
interactive gaming and we are delighted to partner with them on this exciting
new project."

Telltale's new series is one of several upcoming Wallace & Gromit releases.
Later this year, the characters will return to TV with an all-new and original
Aardman short entitled "A Matter of Loaf and Death." DVD compilations of the
duo's best shorts to date are also coming soon from Aardman.
