S&M - Season 2
So, eh, why isn't this one topping the hype meter?
The cinematic teaser is out along with a few screens, and I'm all apes**t about it. Anyone else feel like going ape**t? Let wild speculations and blind worship ensue... |
I liked the way they took all the plot-elements from the previous season and put it into this. SO original. And what's that robot doing there? :O Creepy!
Sam & Max are going to have a combat system :D Hit and smack ^^ |

Actually, it's more post-Leipzig buzz I'm waiting on before updating the H-o-M. Season Two deserves to be there, but with so many games being showcased at GC, Sam & Max don't have the market cornered on hype these days. :)

if they set it in that *$%&ing street scene again i'm going to scream

Personally I'd like to see another Bone game than another S & M one. Sure, the S & M games are quite funny but I'm the kinda guy who steers clear from sequels and rehashes because they usually lack creativity.
I've never read the Bone comics so the games are, or where, quite a revelation for me. |

Oh, Sam and Max.

Only five. How long before the first complaint of the season pre-order price not reducing proportionately? :D
|
Max better have fur this time. And I mean REAL fur! Pixar quality fur, if you will. I won't settle for anything less.

Weird you should mention that. Max has amazing fur technology, but he hairsprays it all down, and then puts on a skin-tight full body white rubber tube before going out in the morning.
|
Like, omg! Doesn't he even realize how bad that is for your hair?
--Erwin |
I don't think Max ever thinks about Jake's hair.
|
I don't mind losing one episode if the 5 will be better overall.. and a christmas episode..thats gotta be fun :D

To get slightly back on topic... Yesterday I bought myself a Windows desktop (Vista makes me appreciate Mac OSX even more btw), and two games followed me home from the same store. Dreamfall and Sam and Max Season One. Sam and Max is simply great! (Dreamfall on the other hand is disappointing. Maybe it'll pick up after a while, but after playing through two S&M episodes Dreamfall doesn't compare favourably in any way.)

(Strangely enough, after having played Dreamfall somewhat recently, I find myself not really inclined to finish playing the Season One games I haven't gotten through yet. But then again, it also has to do with my computer being slow and in need of replacement.) |

Dreamfall was awesome. Sure the controls and combat weren't too amazing if I remember correctly... but I thought the story more than made up for it. And experiencing great stories is what adventures are all about. |

I'm looking forward to it, and I'm glad to hear the difficulty level will pick up where the last season left off. I enjoyed Season 1, but the last episode was the only one that had any real 'meat' to it. Here's hoping this season's episodes are a little longer and more... 'ambitious' is the best word, I guess.

The infamous spider? I didn't play the game that long ago, but I don't remember that. Maybe I should replay. :crazy:
When I played it about six months ago, the thing I thought Dreamfall lacked was dynamic camera cuts and close-ups, which are things Sam & Max has in abundance. But Dreamfall has an atmosphere and evokes emotions that Sam & Max never will. Dreamfall made me cry, and as weird as that may seem, that is one of those things that will always translate to "good game" for me. (I love Sam & Max too, of course. I'm just saying they're really different, and what Dreamfall lacks in camerawork, I think it makes up in other areas.) |

Until Season One is ported to either the Wii, the 360, or the Mac I'm going to be having some difficulty getting excited for Season Two... As a huge fan of both the comics and the original game, I'll get to them eventually. Eventually.

So, the first episode will be the Christmas one, and the second one, coming out in December, will be about Easter Island?

Oh, right. Ah, well, I'll probably play the first episode around Christmas in any case. I just felt it was kind of early with the Christmas episode just a few days into November. Not that I'm complaining :)
|
The first episode was actually supposed to be released in October with episode 2 in December, but some of us at Telltale (me especially!) felt strongly that this was weird in light of the subject matter, so we made some last-minute changes. November may seem early, but on the other hand, the stores will be decked out by then and a lot of the Christmas specials show up on TV in November, too. Plus getting it out in November means 6 whole weeks to get people to buy it based on Xmas nostalgia, rather than the 3 weeks we'd have if we released it in early December...
