Hamham Chan 12-10-2005 07:57 AM

Holy god, it´d be beyond awesome to own those signed Sam + Max prints!
That t-shirt is also pretty sweet.:) :9

fov 12-10-2005 10:00 AM

Nice merchandise. :)

I also like how the comic is sort of interactive when you scroll over the boxes. :D

I liked that feature from their Dank comics. I'm happy to see it carry over into S&M.

Damn, i didn´t notice that.:frusty:

*goes back to read comic*

Cool.:)

Notice how the comic sez that it´s set at Kilpeck Church, England?
In the 12th century in Kilpeck they discovered this:

Hmmm, fascinating.:) :7

$7.10 for the cheapest form of shipping? They must be out of their mind (though if it was DOTT I would buy it). ;)

Here's the direct link to the merchandise BTW: http://www.telltalegames.com/products?dc=snm

Man I feel so guilty for not playing Sam and Max yet. If LucasArts still sold that 3-game adventure pack (discontinued last year) I'd be all over it, even though I already own the other 2 games on CD.

It's about $30 to Europe :shifty:...

Dasilva 12-10-2005 02:03 PM

I'd rather wait for people to sell it on ebay for that price.

It'll only cost even more that way ;).

fov 12-10-2005 02:37 PM

I was noticing the shipping prices seemed pretty high when they first put the Bone books up there. I bought some for a Christmas gift for a family member, and was going to buy them from Telltale. But with those shipping prices I just went to Barnes & Noble. :crazy:

Legolas813 12-10-2005 02:50 PM

I wish companies would stop using high shipping prices. How can $7.10 be called economy? I know for a fact that it does not cost that much to ship a freaking T-Shirt.

The whole point of it is to make the product price appear lower than they actually want it to be.

fov 12-10-2005 02:53 PM

That's why some people charge high shipping prices on eBay, yeah. In this case, though, I doubt Telltale is seeing any money from the shipping. Those prices are probably determined by whoever is handling distribution for them.

Legolas813 12-10-2005 02:56 PM

^ Yep. I agree with Ebay thing. I've seen people selling a game for 1 cent but charging $19.99 for shipping. It's a total scam. And people fall for it too because they don't pay attention to the shipping price listed in the auction (sometimes it is only shown in fine print).

jp-30 12-10-2005 04:21 PM

Well, it's over US$37 UPS International to ship to New Zealand. No economy rates.

Still, on the Telltale Forums, Troy's been alerted to the situation and is looking into it. :)

Hi there,

That does sound a bit much. Can you send a private message to me with your address, and which shipping method you chose. We will take this up with our fulfillment house.

Best,

Troy

Yeah you're right. Judging by the discussion in the Telltale forum, they have no say in the price of shipping. It is most likely handled by an outside company.

HieroHero 12-10-2005 09:33 PM

yeah $38 shipping for a $17 shirt to australia.. Troy from telltale is looking into this problem.. I know a few sites hive went to buy stuff and been stopped by the damn ups shipping..

Kolzig 12-11-2005 05:00 AM

A proper max cost for shipping to Finland from US should be about $15.

The page is saying $36.35, not even UPS costs are that high when I buy stuff from ebay...

Dasilva 12-11-2005 05:22 AM

Its a bit ironic when you're postage costs more than the item you buy. :)

New Sam and Max web comic
 
Hey, everyone. Mix N' Mojo site says that the second edition of Sam and Max web comic is up! Go over to telltale games website and see!

Legolas813 12-28-2005 07:38 PM

Thanks for the heads up.

Karmillo 12-28-2005 10:15 PM

Looks like the comics going to be story arcs instead of random

pheeph 01-13-2006 11:18 PM

Good thing it's not a fan comic :devil:

On a Sam&Max note - I like how The Sun has made an appearance and a mention of the cerebral cortex! :P

Filmman 01-14-2006 04:49 AM

Are all of this going to be in the game from the comic book.

I have a feeling the villains of this comic are going to be some guys in suits working for a certain formerly-loved games company... :devil:

Absolutely excellent comic, and I loved the birdcage liner Sun smacking into Sam's face.

English isn't Filmman's first language so his sentence construction and spelling aren't perefect. It can be difficult. :)

Maquisard 01-14-2006 10:55 AM

First time I saw they had Sam & Max comics on there. They rock! :D I'm a bit puzzled by the continuing story-line approach though, given that they publish one page a month...

fov 01-14-2006 12:17 PM

Jeez, why is everyone being so bitchy today? :(

Filmman, no, the game will not necessarily be the same as the comics that are coming out right now. But Steve Purcell will be working with Telltale as they develop the game, so we can assume that whatever they come up with will have his stamp of approval.

Havent you heard? Today is Be-A-Bitch day. :D ;)

I was just curious, I didn't know he coulden't speak english very well. Here I thought he was talking in newbie form. :P No worries.

RLacey 01-16-2006 07:55 AM

The Sam & Max comic remains great. I'm looking forward to criticising the view of Britain ;).

fov 01-16-2006 07:57 AM

Woo! An on-topic post! :D

The posts about my new avatar have been moved here. ;)

Hamham Chan 01-16-2006 11:36 AM

This is Steve Purcell´s first Sam and Max comic in a looong time.I think the last issue of the S&M comicbook came out in 1992, right?
Although he´s done a bunch of comics with our favourite duo in that fanmagazine that Lucasarts used to put out.:)

Erwin_Br 01-17-2006 03:20 PM

I'm not a big fan of the delayed balloons. The mouse-overs are cool, but in some panels with more than one balloon, the second balloons appear a bit later, which distracts me while reading the text in the first balloon. Did that make sense? :)

cjmunoz 01-18-2006 04:45 AM

I know what you mean, but I kind of like the idea. The main problem I have with it is that in IE when I hover over the picture I get a bar (with options like save and print) that blocks the top corner of the frame and often covers one of the word balloons.
