Remember episodic gaming? Former Telltale devs are bringing it back for the release of Dispatch, and there's a chance it might work this time | Eurogamer (www.eurogamer.net)

I remember how it never worked in the way devs intended it to - a way to create smaller games in scope, that kept development costs and times low.

It always seemed to spiral out of control after the first episode.

yeah i'm skeptical for the same reason. "Episodic" seems to always end in disaster for devs, but hey, who knows? The market has changed a lot in the past few years, maybe episodic makes more sense now?
