Where's the talk of our game, little buddy? Sam n' Max: Season 1 10/14 - $30

[jer7583]

Can't wait to get this! I haven't played any of the PC episodes, so it'll be nice to have the whole first season on Wii.

I really don't know much else about it other than it's been delayed a few times. Not many other sites do, either, since it seems like there's very few previews or info. Let's hope it doesn't get delayed again.

I'll add some more when there's more on some of the bigger sites. There's PC info, but wii info is sparse, and outdated from last year or earlier in the year.

Tomorrow correct?

I am looking forward to it again...

There's too much new stuff coming out for the Wii right now. I got Force Unleashed previously, got de Blob last week, will get Madden this week, and am already eyeing Sam and Max, Wario Land, and a mess o' other titles I don't even have time for...

Amazon states another week..

[vherub]

probably will pick this up at toysrus with a couple ds games during the sale.

[jer7583]

It's the 14th, now.. Unfortuantely. It's been delayed a few times so don't get your hopes too high next week.

I'm thinking telltale isn't so used to the console distribution or they're holding off to actually do some marketing or something.

More delays...

I LOVED sam and max as a kid.. the games were awesome!

UPDATE OCTOBER 7: Due to a manufacturing delay, it's looking like the Wii version won't start arriving in stores until next week. When you see it in your local store, please post on this thread so we know where it's available!

Looks like it'll be thursday on this one due to the holiday delaying shipping? I'm not sure, but it isn't in stores yet today.

[Snake2715]

amazon stated today yesterday.. I didnt check them today...

[chakan]

Gamecrazy's sick of me calling to check

[vherub]

this delay is unfortunate, if it misses the tru b2g1 window, I will have too many games to justify a purchase for a while.

[chakan]

Anyone seen this, anywhere?

[vherub]

I have seen it instore at ebgamestop

[j_factor]

I looked for this game at Toys R Us, Best Buy, and Fry's, and none of them had it. :(

Amazon has it for $25.99: http://www.amazon.com/Sam-Max-Season-One-Nintendo-Wii/dp/B0017HZOLU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1225626239&sr=1-1

[chakan]

^that's good, since I haven't seen it in ANY store.

[Tsukento]

I've mainly only seen one copy at GameStop, so $25.99 with free shipping for a SEALED copy is quite good indeed. :)

[soonersfan60]

Micro Center has it (in Columbus, Ohio), so try one of their locations (if you have one near you).

[tsmvengy]

I guess I should buy it directly from telltale - maybe the devs get more $$ that way.

[vherub]

also at newegg for $25.99 f/s
in case you have to pay amazon tax

Picked this up from Telltale and played some last night. A couple things:

There are parts of the game where the framerate is fucked up. Mostly when certain animations come in - like in the car-driving portion of episode 1, if you drive on the side of the road and run into a bunch of parking meters the framerate goes down.

Having just played Sam & Max Hit the Road in preparation, I would say the voice acting for the main characters was better in that game. The biting sarcasm was better.

Otherwise I'm having a good time so far - only partially through episode 1 though.

[soonersfan60]

Has anyone seen this at Toys R Us? I want to get this as part of their sale next week, but the TRU guy hasn't seen it and wasn't sure if they are getting it or not.

[soonersfan60]

Loving this game so far (but not much time to play lately). Finally figured out Episode 1, but stuck on Episode 2. I don't want to use Gamefaq b/c there are too many spoilers. Can someone post some vague hints to get me in the right direction. The birthday cake didn't help me, so I'm guessing I need a tomato (and a way to hit high notes, even though I have his song). And the cowpie on a plate didn't work so I need to find some way to get the chicken "distracted" so he doesn't pull the tail because all "Moo" responses fail. Anyone?

You're doing the cowpie part right, one of the responses should work - it's a Chinese dish.

As for the cake Bosco's has something made out of tomatoes that you can put on the cake. Also ask him what BoscoTech he has for sale and figure out a way to get that.

[soonersfan60]

Thanks. I actually caved and went to Gamefaqs. I was using shaving cream instead of the lamp shade, so the Chinese dish option never would come up.
