http://www.savesamandmax.com
 
it had to be done..so i did it.. if every1 can let as many people know about the website..

below is a press release..if people could help me get it to as many sites as possible..especially the sites that ran the sam & max cancellation press release

Savesamandmax.com Press Release

Savesamandmax.com website launched.

In less than a week after Lucasarts announcement that it has stopped production on Sam & Max: Freelance Police a Save Sam & Max Website has been launched. The Site is dedicated to forcing LucasArts to reverse their decision and have Sam & Max 2 finished and released. There was a lot of frustration, anger and resentment after LucasArts shock announcement and the creator of http://www.savesamandmax.com wants to "harness that in a productive way." "The campaign to get this game reinstated has just begun, as a petition approaches 10, 000 signatures, we have a picket line protest being organised to be held at LucasArts Offices in San Rafel, CA." "We also are encouraging everyone to mail their own piece of Sam & Max Fan Artwork to LucasArts to let them know their are Sam & Max Fans out there who would buy this game, contrary to whatever flawed research they have done." "I think its also time for the gaming community to take a stand and let companies like LucasArts know we want original and funny games like Freelance Police." I also challenge Mike Nelson who cancelled the game with that pathetic 2 line quote, to come out and respond to fans passionate showing of support for the game." And what does Sam & Max think of the website created to save the 6 foot dog and 3 foot rabbity thingy...

Sam - "My belief is that it represented the collective sorrow and frustration of all those whose favorite adventure game was steamrolled into the ground by cold, sterile, LucasArts."

Max - "I may weep openly"



Please help spread this press release to every gaming site, news publication possible.

It's "weep openly", man. :shifty:

Other than that... good effort, I suppose, though LucasArts will never reverse their decision. The best you can hope for is to let them know that a mistake has been made, and I think that's been done already. :)

The picket line protest scares me...

TheDerman 03-08-2004 01:00 PM

A picket line protest eh? Who organised that? How many are expected to show up?

I hope somebody takes a camera along and then posts the pics.

That's probably the idea. ;)

I'd drive into work past a load of CND hippies or a crowd of animal rights types, but would YOU want to drive past a bunch of rabid Sam and Max fans? :P

HieroHero 03-08-2004 01:04 PM

If I lived in America I would happily join the picket line. As I don't, could somebody take this picture along with them ;)?

Make sure you guys do the Grim Fandango "Killer Bees tonight" speach. :)

LauraMac 03-08-2004 01:17 PM

I love the picket line protest.
Delicious idea. Can't wait to see the evening news,
that would have to be a first!

I wish I lived there so I could help man the barricades. Aww I love direct action. :7

Re: picket line

Just make sure there's going to be more than 3 guys there or it will just look silly.

Christina 03-08-2004 01:30 PM

What's great is that if you go to http://www.petitiononline.com, they post their top 10 most active petitions. Guess what? Sam & Max 2 is #1. There is also another Sam & Max petition that is #3. :D

Marek 03-08-2004 01:49 PM

Trust me, a picket line does not look cool. :)

It will. In a nerdy kind of way :P. The point is, it'll hopefully get their attention. Maybe you can notify the press too? ;)

This is great! The picket line would be cool if there were enough people but if there weren't.....
