Third Strong Bad episode amped up for download on PC and WiiWare

Written by Jack Allin -

There's never any peace when Strong Bad is around, and with today's release of Baddest of the Bands on PC and WiiWare, gamers can kiss the quiet goodbye, as well.

In the third episode of Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People, the diminutive tough guy finds himself in desperate need of funds to fix the Fun Machine, and sets out to stage a Battle Royale of the Bands contest. With last-place talent and first-place ambitions, however, Strong Bad will need to pull out all the stops for guest judges Limozeen, and no tactic proves too sneaky when victory is at stake.

Following the same release pattern as previous episodes in the series, the new game is available now for worldwide download on PC, and on the Wii Shop Channel in North America, with international WiiWare availability still to come. A demo of the game is also available for PC at Telltale's website.

As a first for the series, Baddest of the Bands arrives with an all-new website of its own, with background on the game's concert, a downloadable flyer, and a new trailer.
