If you caught last night’s episode of GameTrailers TV, you were able to catch a special game announcement from Telltale Games in the form of a teaser trailer. Although very short, the trailer showed four notable characters standing in unison; Tycho from Penny Arcade, Max from Sam and Max, Heavy from Team Fortress 2, and Strong Bad.

The official announcement as to why these different characters from different worlds are uniting will come September 2nd, but until then, we may have a clue. Upon further inspection by 1UP, it appears the characters are holding a set of cards. Telltale knows a thing or two about card games, as they released a Texas Hold ‘Em title in 2005.

So before you start thinking this is like the video game version of the 90′s VHS sensation Cartoon All-Stars To The Rescue, it may just be an all-star poker game. Wait,…you don’t remember Cartoon All-Stars? Shame on you! It’s linked below the break.

Valve has just announced a new update now available for Team Fortress 2. Hailed as “the largest single-class update ever”, the long anticipated Engineer Update brings with it a slew of new weapons, including a shotgun, golden wrench, and The Gunslinger, a new glove that ups your maximum health and lets the wearer string together melee attacks for combos. It also allows Engineers to drop a new mini sentry gun, which take less time and metal (only 100 pieces) to construct than their full sized counterpart. The Wrangler, a laser, is the last of the new weapons and can be used to shield sentry guns from damage and direct their aim at specific targets.

There are also three new maps and new achievements to enjoy. Check out all the details at their official site.
