  • Actually Biff's behavior isn't that much of a contradiction. For one thing, look how he is in 2015. For the most part, his nice guy routine is him being afraid to cross George.

    Even then, he will still try to get money for work he didn't do (like only applying one coat of wax when he's suppose to do two).

  • @Antiyonder Thanks for watching & commenting!

    I do agree with your point! It's something I considered when finalizing the review & going through those scenes again, but I felt I should stick with the vibe Biff from the "good" timeline originally left me with.

    He might weasel out of work, but he still seems genuinely excited for George's book.

    You can justify his behavior in the game, but I feel Telltale was reaching a little bit, especially with having him try to one-up Marty with the guitar.

  • The game is not that bad at all.. Try playing the NES bttf games, maybe you will understand why telltalegames made this.

  • FOR FUCK SAKE YOU CANT SPEAK ENGLISH AT ALL.. trust me sounds a mix of english italian and monkeylish! Pathetic LMAO

  • I completley agree with this

  • My point is, there is a LOT of exposition required to make a story as intricate as BTTF a worthy endeavour. So I am happy to forgive some of the simplistic story nature of episode 1 in order to enjoy the pay off that is episode 5.

  • I have never played a Telltale game, so I can't say I was bored with the puzzles in the slightest. But the 5 ep game was a resounding story success. There was more there than what was hinted at with ep 1. A lot like BTTF. Bob Gale said that in initial screenings of the film, audiences didn't know where it was going until Marty encountered 50's George in the diner.

  • TTG:TellTale games? No. The Tech Game.
